Mike Batie is a family historian who enjoys researching his own family tree and the family trees of others. “It gives me a sense of someone’s background and what makes them who they are today. To see their roots, where they come from, is often inspiring. I’m often in awe of the connections of their ancestors’ experiences to the present.”

Mike hopes to inspire others to research their own family trees and find out where they come from by sharing interesting insights from the family trees of notable figures.
