I've done some research, but have only gone back ~3 generations on the maternal side and only one generation on the paternal side. Haven't even completed the generations in these instances. I should get back to it.

The main thing I was hoping to find, I already found. Having an interest in the Civil War, I was hoping to find some Civil War ancestors. I did! My Great-Grandfather (GG) and his two brothers were in the war. They emmigrated from Germany in the 1850's and served in different local (to Albany NY) units. One brother was killed at the Battle of Cold Harbor. He was safe and secure serving in the 7th NY Heavy Artillery, helping to protect Washington DC until 1864, when Gen Grant needed more infantry, and his unit was sent out to the Battle of the Wilderness. Interesting to discover that my GG and one brother were buried in an Evangelical Protestant church that was only 4 blocks from where I lived while doing the research. (Sorry, I'm sure this was more than you wanted to know. A "yes" in response to your question would have been sufficient. I'm not so sorry that I'll erase everything, however. ;D)
