Here are my ascendants for 7 generations, with names and dates.
I've also got a pictorial chart showing where I've got to, I'm represented as the red box. Again, this is an ascendant chart.
Thanks to the wonders of the computer age, a standard genealogical file type, and a very clever person writing a very handy program, I can now bring you my family tree!
John Julius Angerstein
One of the biggest names in the tree, and unfortunately a dead end when it comes to researching the family tree. Apparently the illegitimate son of a Russian princess, he was brought up by the doctor who delivered him and gave him his name. He became a sucessful underwriter with Lloyds of London; and built Woodlands house in Greenwich, also owning a town house in Pall Mall. His painting collection was sold to the country after his death, and formed the beginning of the National Gallery collection.
Amelia Lock
John Julius' daughter in law, married to his son John. Her mother Frederica Schaub was orignally from Holland; Frederica's grandparents were from Genoa, Italy.
Sir Richard King
My 5x great grandfather. He rose to Admiral in the Navy and was also governor of Newfoundland 1792-3.
Sir William Rowley
Navy Admiral of the Fleet 1762-1768. His grandson Charles married Richard King's daughter Elizabeth.
