Glad your immediate relatives are your inspiration. My initial response to a different poster on this thread was a retort to his use of narrow economic interest as a reason to not care about genealogy.

You are bringing up an intensely spiritual reason for not being interested in it.

At the moment I am engaged in the continuation of a 50 year search into the whys and wherefores of what is called the charismatic, apostolic Church of the First Born, in the Fullness of Time, teaching Christ's Commandments, Army cross training (or the short version, Faith Assembly).

It's kind of a meaningless group ~ just a bunch of kin who have the highest infant mortality rate of any group in North America, and what appears to be one of the highest divorce rates ever registered for any group on Earth.

I think their infants deserve better. Unfortunately to track these people down it is necessary to do it through genealogy since they don't visit doctors, nor do they live in town (for the most part).

These guys don't even socialize with Gypsies all that much! The fact they were life-long members of this church is usually not revealed until the day they die.

I have had some luck using the internet to "intervene", and my tribe grows apace.

Regarding spirituality... I hear the Mormon Church has just about the finest records in the US.
