Unfortunately, I can only go back to my great grandparents, who all immigrated with few records available before that time.
Additionally, your ancestors may not be precisely who you think they were. This might mean records are available (unless you're from somewhere like Papua New Guinea, for example).

yes, but I wouldn't really expect too many surprises since we are only talking about a couple of generations in this country and I know/knew them all.
I actually have considered taking the DNA analysis just to check out whether the family lore is true or not.
