My Family Tree

This page will be linked to your home page using one of the buttons you designed in that assignment.

A family tree is a visual diagram of the generations in a family.  Few, if any of us, just appeared from thin air, therefore, most of us have generations that have preceded us.

Make note of the time line and dues dates ~ they must be adhered to for full credit potential
