"Ancestry Tails” by Sean O’Cleary, or the “Shakespeare of Shenanigans,” humorously integrates pets into genealogical narratives, exploring the legacy and chaos pets bring to our family histories. Through titles like “Digging Up the Dirts” and “Branching Out,” O’Cleary challenges genealogy norms, celebrating our furry, finned, and feathered companions as integral parts of our ancestral tales.
