As I've gone throughout my Family History Class, I've had to create a pedigree fan chart. This was surprisingly neat for me. For some reason, seeing my ancestry in that form, laid out in that way, was very powerful and moving to me. It's incredible the power that families have on this earth. I suddenly realized the strength of my living and deceased ancestors. I think that together, families have the power to overcome everything that Satan could throw at us. And though I may not personally know over half of those names on my pedigree chart, there is a bond that connects us all.
I apologize for the extremely large size of the photo, but I wanted my name and my ancestor's names to be clear! I come from a great heritage. Some of my ancestors are a few of the greatest people I have ever read about. They were brave, kind, generous, optimistic, enduring, patient, and faithful. I hope I can live up to my potential as a descendant.
