Mmm. While I understand getting rid of the "family home", I do think we should have ties to the lands of our ancestors somehow. I like seeing whose family is from what region. I'm actually trying to get a temple built in a specific region solely because someone who was important to the development of the faith was from there.
Problem here is that the family home is often irrelevant to the family. Take my family for instance. My family home is on the colonies, I graced the realm of my first character for all of 3 hours before deleting the character and creating a viking. As the only input you have about your family home is a random region in the first realm you join, which lets face it for new players is mostly just a random choice, family homes have much less impact then they could.
Sure you can move family homes with a Hero, but that very feature undoes the "history" aspect anyway.
