No one even really knows what their great grandparents were like, unless they were famous or something. I have no idea who my great, great grandfather even was. It stops in 1872

Aren't great grandparents the parents of your grandparents? I knew them, and a lot of people did know theirs. Mine were nice people.

What about your great, great grandparents then? Do you know what they were like?

True, depends on the age when everyone got kids. But the point of the person you replied to still stands: You know the people you met, you might know one or the other story of the people they met, but then it stops.

One of my great grandparents is still alive. They told me a handful of stories from their parents and grandparents. That's it. There's no history beyond a few birth and marriage certificates from beyond that.
