A Family Calendar

by Frank Johnson. 16 June 2017.

My grandma loves genealogy. I remember stopping at cemeteries on road trips, trying to piece together the long story of our history from charcoal rubbings of old headstones. The old family joke was that she'd rather go there instead of the beach.

This diagram shows all of my grandparents' descendants, with their birth date represented by the angle from 12 o'clock, and their age represented by proximity to the circle's center. The blue sweep represents the days elapsed in the current year

Hover over each dot to see the name, birth date, and current age of each family member.
