  22. #QuestionOfTheWeek — Do you have Appalachian roots?🌄
    ▶️ youtube.com/shorts/Tu-J5US-1Vc

    The misty hollows and ridge-top farms of Appalachia sheltered families for generations — and their stories are woven into one of America's most distinctive regional cultures. Whether your ancestors came through the Great Wagon Road, settled the Blue Ridge, or farmed the coal country of West Virginia and Kentucky, those mountain connections run deep.

    Do you have Appalachian roots? Where from — and any surprising connections you've uncovered?

    Share your story and join the conversation on WikiTree's G2G community forum. You might even find cousins you never knew you had! 🌿
