The Family Tree

THE FAMILY TREE

Most people have a family. Some of these family members might not be with us anymore, but they are the reason why you are alive. A family tree is a simple map that helps us understand how we are related to our family. Usually, family trees have names and pictures of the members. On this tree, the oldest members of a family are placed on the top. The youngest are placed at the bottom. Here, we can see the immediate family tree of Latika.
