Alright so here is the family tree for the Mellarks. I began the tree from as far as I could possibly go -for story purposes- and ended in the sim I will be using for the first story of the legacy. The story of Annabelle.
Hope you like it 🙂
— If you click on the pic, you’ll see a bigger version 😉 —
Charlers Mellark. The second son of a farmer family from Riverview.
John Baptist Mellark. Older brother of Charles Mellark. He moved to Lucky Palms; married and had children.
Charles Mellark married his 2nd cousin Victoria Mellark; They moved to Sunset Valley in 1905 where they established the first Hospital in the town: The Mellark Hospital.
Charles Mellark Descendants:
Charles and Victoria had twin boys: Arthur and John.
Arthur married to Julia Chang in 1929.He inherit the Hospital Director position after his father retired.
John moved to the country side and married Alicia . Click here to see his family tree.
Arthur Mellark’s Descendants:
Arthur and Julia had three children; Sophia; and twin brothers: Judd and Jude.
Sophia was married to her 3rd cousin Joseph Mellark in the year of 1954. The marriage had been arranged since her infancy in order to keep the title of the Hospital within the family name.
Jude married Cynthia (a woman of Russian descent) in 1954; they had two boys: Rolland, and Ivan.
Judd married Adriana in 1956; they had a daughter named Elena.
Sophia Mellark’s Descendants:
Despite the arranged marriage, their union was a happy union.
Joseph and Sophia had one son: Riggo.
Riggo didn’t follow the Mellark’s traditions and instead of becoming a doctor and taking over the Hospital, he became a writer.
Riggo was arranged in marriage to his 5th cousin Camille Mellark in exchange for not inheriting the Hospital.
However, contrary to his parents, theirs was not a happy union.
Riggo Mellark’s Descendants:
Riggo and Camille had a daughter; Annabelle Mellark. They stayed in Sunset Valley close to his parents.
His father still runs the Mellark Hospital.
Annabelle Mellark.

I have tried to play a Legacy Challenge before but I never make it to the 10th Generation.
Somewhere around the 4th I get bore and stop playing, however this time around I have thought of doing my own thing and not follow the challenge rules to see if I can stick with it. Perhaps I’m a rebel at heart, perhaps I’m just a procrastinator; perhaps I’m both, but whatever the deal is I will make a promise to this blog that I will go on with this generation for as long as I can…
eh! I’m trying to be safe and not say a particular number heehee.
I really want to have fun with this legacy/story!
Hope you all enjoyed this family tree,
Thank you for reading!

Thank you for the comment and reading the post. Yes I put a lot of details, it seems I love to do things very organized, but somewhere along the way I lose it hahaha… this sure puts a lot of pressure because I don’t think I’m that good at writing… :- }
Well, there is two pictures of 1950, but you mean this dress right? (which by the way is beautiful): http://blog.naver.com/PostThumbnailView.nhn?blogId=jinhee_a&logNo=110162387656&categoryNo=80&parentCategoryNo=

Thank you so much, that is lovely. Rusty is great.
I know what you mean about losing it, I’ve never finished a single legacy, but I am determined and inspired by all the other awesome writers on WP. I seriously look forward to reading it, because even if your aren’t the best writer(I’m definitely not either!), your story looks so interesting already!

Hi xpanda!! ( I will shorten your name if you don’t mind ^ ^ )
Thank you so much for all your comments. Let me say this first. Because you just made my day by leaving me tons of comments, all over my blog and if I could reach into my screen and huggle you to death I would. But then again I should keep you alive because you are too sweet to die by my huggles. Okay that was a bit of a morbid comment. Sorry :3
This took time, yes it did. But I wanted to do a back story like I said, and I felt inspired to do something romantic and at the same time something that seems like it could happen in real life if you know what I mean. I hope I gave that impression. I was always fascinated by family dramas on TV: family chronicles. And this is the idea for this legacy. Although I have taken so much time to update since the last chapter I was feeling guilty.
So thank you again, a lot, for all your comments. I will go now and answer on your thoughts. 😉
Hugs you…not to death. Teehee.
