It really is fascinating finding out more about where you came from. Honestly I could spend entire days on this stuff. I've been able to trace a lot on my father's side due to some of our ancestors being royals so there are lots of records, and recently one of my best friends and I found out we are both related very distantly through one of those ancestors! We're both still shocked and (happily) amazed by it!
I know my mom would be so fascinated. She always talked about her mother, grandmother and great-grandmother, and I know she wanted to know more. <3 My mum's sister and brother started tracing their family history a few years before my maternal grandma passed away and she was always so intrigued by everything they would find and sometimes even cried when they would find old photos and such. It was such a touching thing to see her reactions. I'm sure your mum would be thrilled and enthralled by it all as well <3
