This is the family tree as seen from my father's side. Thanks to Tom (the man on the bottom, center leg) for the information. It was greatly appreciated.
 n the beginning there was nothingness... | |
 |
...and then -- although we don't know exactly when -- there was this Big Bang thing |
| After a unknown number of years, we were able to establish an outpost on a small blue ball out in the middle of nowhere. |  |
 |
Here's an early family photograph. It's one of a precious few that survived from the period. |
| Due to a thoroughly soaked stack of punch cards in 220 B.C., an unreadable tape reel in 323, and an unruly Bernoulli Box in 1096, our family records are rather incomplete until the time of Richard Wicker. We again pick up the tree in Devonshire from what was left of 180k floppy disk of 1550... | |
