Mine is kinda an alternate USA but not necessarily in North America. Just a British colony that gained independence in the late 1700s....

Wow cool concepts

Ohhhhhhh...... that's right.

Well my argument was based on the fact that the number of ancestors one has expands exponentially, so it becomes increasingly more likely to have slave-holding ancestors as time goes on especially considering the location his ancestors lived. As you said, I said that he "probably" had slave-holding ancestors since I have no records, but to claim you have no slave-holding with no sources is just the same.
I can't say for certain that I do, but I have found a few knights who were probably my ancestors. As I have gotten better with genealogy, I've been going back through my family tree and improving the sources and such to make sure everything is as accurate as possible. That has consumed much of my research time recently, and I haven't bothered to check the lines that may contain said knights since earlier generations still require better sources.

And, as stated, your argument is irrelevant to his original point. The family that lost the farm, and that he draws descent from, didn't own slaves. Nothing more need be said. Attempting to guess at distant unnamed relatives that *might* have done a thing is pointless, disparaging (whether you intend it to be or not), incapable of being proven, and irrelevant to what happened to his ancestors. Now I think we can lay this matter to rest.
How far back have you gone? What countries?

Ive gone back to the 900s. But like only to 989.
Otira, New Waldensia, Viridus, Gagium
That is still impressive. Find anything interesting? What nations have you traced your line through?
New Waldensia, Viridus, Gagium, The Legion Of Mankind
I suppose that's fair.
Well my mom is from Germany. I have most of her lines back to the early 1700s or later 1600s because there are really good church records available. Literally all of her of her ancestors come from North-Rhine Westphalia in Germany or the province of Overijssel in the Netherlands. On my dad's side it varies a lot more. Some I only have back til the early 1800s while others go back to 1400s and possibly earlier. His ancestors predominantly come from the British Isles (mostly England and Scotland), Switzerland and the Rhineland-Palatinate region in Germany. But there are also a few from France, the Netherlands, and Flanders in Belgium.

I'd love to trace my family back as far as we can.
Liberated American Provinces, Viridus, Gagium, The Legion Of Mankind
It's honestly pretty easy to get into. I'd recommend Ancestry.com for managing your own tree just because it's formatted best and keeps your tree separate from other people. You have to pay if you want to access records though, but you can find most of the same records on FamilySearch.org which is run by the LDS. God bless the mormons for keeping the records free lol
New Waldensia, Viridus, Gagium, The Legion Of Mankind
On my Dads mother side, they are English Royalty/Nobles and sheriffs of Kent, some order of the Garter, Parliament members, Knights, a guy who led Wyatts Rebellion who got his head chopped off and some other things.
On my Moms mom side. Its basically English who moved to the Colonies when they were decently new. Like Jamestown. After the others came over a little over 50 years they went to Virginia, Massachusetts, New York, when the Revolution broke out some joined the Rebels and a couple joined the Torries and yeah. Then after all that happened most of them moved to Kentucky and when the American Civi War 2.0 broke out, About 6 of them joined the 24th Regiment Kentucky Volunteer Infantry, some joined the other Confederacy and thats about it, but the really cool stuff comes from my Dads moms side. Thats where all the noble Europeans come from. Like HRE Emperors, Hapsburgs, German people, a bunch of military over the years. Thats about it. And yes Im related to the British monarchs because of Edward the First.

Yeah thats what I did. Its a great thing to do.

OOF! Just kidding ;)
Very interesting. Church records are incredibly helpful in tracing lineages. Bless those monks centuries ago for keeping records.
Liberated American Provinces, Washingtonian Republic, New Waldensia, Viridus, Gagium, The Legion Of Mankind
Yeah funny thing is in Ancestry thats how I got most of my stuff dating back before 1600 or so.
Liberated American Provinces, Washingtonian Republic, Viridus, Gagium
Lol indeed. They are the real heroes
Yeah, a lot of my original research was on Ancestry, but at this point FamilySearch has basically all the same records for free. But Ancestry is still way better for trees because on FamilySearch anyone can add stuff, so sometimes people add a bunch of BS without proof, etc.
Viridus, Gagium, The Legion Of Mankind, Pere Housh Alpha
Really?! Thats not annoying lol
Liberated American Provinces, Viridus, Gagium
Yeah sometimes people will just add people without any records to back it up. Like they just saw it somewhere online and assumed it was right

Ah ok. I've heard those records are difficult to trace since most aren't digitized. You really gotta put in a lot of effort like emailing different archives and stuff to get anywhere.

Okasian's Plan to Achieve Greatness:
1. Say you're going to storm Area 51.
2. The government puts all their troops in Area 51 to stop you.
3. Go to Area 69 instead since the troops protecting it were moved to Area 51.
4. ...
5. Profit!

Wasn't the US founded as a white supremacist nation?
Besides, based Grant was also a drunkard who owned slaves, hated Jews and had the most corrupt administration of the century.

You can make a free tree on their website. Just use FamilySearch for records so you don't have to pay.

A drunkard who, along with General Sherman, planned the Union's eventual victory in the Civil War; military successes, mind you, that were not achieved by the sober, top-of-their-classes-at-West-Point commanders of the Army of the Potomac. Also, you're really trying to tell me that the man who effectively helped to end slavery--a man who fought for the abolitionist cause--is somehow just as bad as the ardently racist Democrat who went so far as to call Grant the "n-word president?" Please explain to me how owning one slave but ultimately fighting to end bondage is just as morally unacceptable as campaigning on a nativist rhetoric. Please explain to me how Grant's background is just as bad as fostering racial inequality as the governor of New York. Really so much in common, right?
And do you really think that Grant was the only one who hated jews in nineteenth-century America? Please. How much do you want to bargain that Seymour also hated Jews?
As for corruption. So Tammany Hall wasn't corrupt? The Democratic political machine wasn't corrupt? Andrew Jackson's cabinet wasn't corrupt with all that nepotism? James Buchanan's cabinet wasn't corrupt with it having so many confederate sympathizers and open traitors? You act as though Grant was some kind of phenomenon to American politics.
