I think I would call mine "From Riches to Rags" since all my lines seemed to have started off prosperous and then gradually over the centuries shed their wealth generation by generation until the fortunate ones were miners, mariners and ag labs whilst the unfortunate ones were in the Poor House.

As quite a few of mine are Stinchcombes/Stinchcombs from Hawkesbury in Gloucestershire, and as they are known in Hawkesbury genealogy circles as The Bloody Stinchcombes (no matter which tree you are researching, you will have a Stinchcombe or ten in there somewhere), it would have to be that - The Bloody Stinchcombes!
