Try Some HERITAGE PIE.

Here's another Saturday Night Genealogy Fun from our friend Randy Seaver at Genea-Musings. The task was to list your 16 g g grandparents, giving birth, death and marriage.  Determine the countries (or states) that these ancestors lived in at their birth and at their death.  Next create a Heritage Pie from the countries (or states) of their birth.  Since all of mine were born in the US, mine is of states.

Many of the responses to this task were sketchy and some had a lot of blanks, so I should feel lucky that at least I have names and locations for all of my great-great grandparents.  I am needing to find some marriage dates and locations.  (Most of mine were estimations based on the births of their oldest children.)  I was surprised to find so many of them being born in New York - I'd have thought Pennsylvania or Maine.

Oops, I just noticed that I should have had 4 for Kentucky (blue) instead of three, so New York doesn't have the most.  (I guess the total should add up to 16 if you are listing your 16 g g grandparents, right?)

Why don't you try this and see how many of these ancestors you can find.  [Hint - you might use an Ancestral Name List from your software for this. However, if you use Family Tree Maker, it may not be available - I couldn't find it on mine; had to cut and paste to a Word doc.]  The graph was created using the  chart generator from Kid Zone per Randy's suggestion.

Good luck and happy genealogy hunting.
