Relating to or concerning genealogy; tracing family origins and relationships across generations.
Extended from 'genealogic' by adding the suffix '-al,' creating the more modern English adjectival form. Derived ultimately from Greek 'genealogia' meaning 'account of one's descent.'
When you do a genealogical search on Ancestry.com, you're literally following the Greek roots: 'genos' (race/family) + 'logia' (study), tracing your family story backwards through time.
