Most Generations in One Household

[Paul E]

Hmmm  - still hunting!

I can find plenty of great grandchildren in the censuses, and plenty of great grandfathers / grandmothers, but never with the full set to make the five generations.  I'm sure there'll be one though!

Ok.  If I get half points for sideways relatives I'll put this family up for consideration.  Yes they are mine but I'm booger-rooed if I can work out all the connections!

These are all on the same page, neighbours.

So that leaves 3 people on teh page that I don't think are related.

So as a side track - does anyone have a full house i.e. a whole FULL page all related to YOU?

My hand = 22

(Ann Stewart the servant is a relative)

Way to go, Pam!

Only three generations, but that has to be a census page to die for!  I think this probably calls for a whole new thread (and you're the one to start it!)

The family historian's equivalent of five balls on the lottery!

Just to bring this post alive again, my mom grew up in a house with her mother, her grandparents, and her great-grandfather (that darn Hayes family I am trying to track). That's four generations under one rough, until 1943, when her ggrandfather died. She has wonderful stories and it makes me very envious.
