Unfortunately, most of my paternal ancestors that had write-ups done about them like that were NOT liberal. Most of them were from the south and half of them were slaveowners.

My maternal ancestors just kind of seemed to keep their heads down and farm, so I really don't know what their political views were, or if they had any, though my maternal grandfather was an Atheist Liberal, like me, so hopefully he got it from his ancestors

And I did read it... LOL I'm a Genealogy geek like that. I love history and stories of people from the past, whether they are related to me or not
