I haven't moved far from where I was born. But my m-i-l's family have only moved about about 400 yards since 1841!

No - I was born in London but now live in Kent.
I wouldn't know where to start explaining about the movements my acestors made! Lol.
The most travelled is my great grandfather who was born in Romania, He travelled throughout the Balkans and Europe as a child. He went to Canada and then the US aged 12 before returning to Romania as a young man. After his marriage he went back to Canada and then the US before travelling on to Brazil and Uraguay. He travelled from Montevideo landing in Liverpool. He ravelled into Scotland, Wales and Ireland extensivley before 'settling' in Waltham Cross, Hertfordshire where he died in 1945.

I was born in Hampshire, but as an adult I've moved many times, including overseas. Now in Kent, where we've been since 1985 hence my sign-in name.
No intention of moving again.

I have a distant family member who will soon be 93 and still lives in the house where he was born. I can trace direct ancestors in that village back to 1770s so far.
