Your Family Tree

Create a layout on several pieces of paper or poster board or in an online mapping tool. Draw a tree

outlining family members and basic dates, such as when the "Mom and Dad" of the gathering group were born, up to the "today" date of the current

family. Go back in your family lineage as far as you can. Add additional information if you’d like such as

place of birth, occupations, family names.
