Mission

Ancestors unKnown is a nonprofit organization with a mission to inspire the academic and personal success of young people by introducing them to their unknown ancestors

What We Do

Ancestors unKnown has created a fun, engaging and educational way to inspire secondary school students to learn and care about history. We personalize history lessons by incorporating the stories of the students’ own ancestors. Teachers use the Ancestors Curriculum and hands-on programming to introduce students to family history research and some of the world’s untold histories.
