Planting a tree

Well, I know a little about my family, my parents, my grandparents and great grandparents..... but not enough and that's what I want to find out. I have some interesting family members like great uncle Wilfred ( but didn't climb to the top) who climbed Mount Everest with Edmund Hilary in 1953 and wrote about it, but if I look closer he's just a name on a book to me. And also my great grandfather Doug fought to the death in world war two and was a prisnor of war (POW) but to me just a name on a dogtag.
