This is the time for a collaborative timeline about a family starting in 45 AD and it ends in 2020. Everyone will contribute two names of the leader of the family. So they all have to be male. They can have daughters. I will start them as a farming family and will avoid any changes in history. Please keep it as realistic as possible and do not discover the route to India earlier than 1200 or the Americas before 1400s. If you want to make them nobility you may do so, but do not rise them to fast from were they are at when you start telling their story. Surenames before 1066 in England was mostly about what profession they had. The family can migrate to another country if needed, but remember that prior to the age of colonization people seldom migrated outside the area were they were born. And try to have someone else post inbetween if you have the idea of two posts. Lets see how far we can take this
