Have you ever wondered about your family's history, the people in your family
youve never met or the people in your family that have accomplished great things. Well
I did so when I was told to choose a topic I knew little about I instantly knew I wanted to
do my family tree In this following essay I will tell you about the famous people, soldiers,
and deceased in my family. This information you will be reading about is important
because it can help you learn more about the people who fought in some of Americas
biggest wars to protect their nation and the people who have probably played for one of
your favorite teams. Most people in my family tree have accomplished great things from
help leading their teams to victory to fighting for America.

This paragraph will be about all the famous people in my family. The first person
is Zach Tuiasosopo who was born on December 19, 1981 in Woodinville, Washington
,Zach played for the Pittsburgh Steelers, Philadelphia Eagles, Oakland Raiders ,and
the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in his career. His brother Marques Tuiasosopo was born on
March 22, 1979 in Long Beach, California, Marques played for the Oakland Raiders and
the New York Jets in his NFL career. Marques is now the brand new quarterbacks coach
/passing game coordinator for UCLA. Marques and Zachs younger brother Matt
Tuiasosopo who was born on May 10, 1986 in Bellevue, Washington ,played for the
Detroit Tigers, Seattle Mariners, New York Yankees, Toronto Blue Jays, and the Atlanta
braves in his MLB career. Manu Tuiasosopo who is Marques, Zach, and Matts father
was born on August 30, 1957 in Los Angeles, California, played for the 49ers and the
Seahawks. Manu has also won five super bowls. Konishiki Yasokichi who was born on
December 31, 1963 in Oahu, Honolulu County, Hawaii, was the first hawaiian sumo
wrestler to get the highest ranking in sumo wrestling. All of my uncles I talked about all
have the same ethnicity which was samoan.

I am know going to tell you about the people in my family who were soldiers.
Ardell Martin was a soldier in World War ll and Vietnam. Eddie Del Rio Jr. is a retired
USMC. Eddie Del Rio Sr. was a soldier in World War ll and was under command of
General Patton. These were all the soldiers from my family tree. When Eddie Del Rio
Sr. retired he opened up a dry cleaners shop called Eddies Cleaners he was also
President L.B.Js tailor. This connects with other things I know because my two great
grandpas Eddie Del Rio Sr. and Ardell Martin were apart of some of the most important
wars in our history. Also my great grandpa s and my grandpa all share the same
ethnicity which was mexican.

My last category is deceased. The first person who is deceased from my family is
my little brother Milagro Del Rio Martin he passed away when he was born and is now
buried at Eternal Hills cemetery. Siaki Ramon Del Rio who is my moms brother was an
engineer for California for 15 years, graduated high school with his AA degree and is
now buried at Eternal Hills Cemetery. Ardell Martin who you read about earlier is also
buried at Eternal Hills. The last person I will be talking about is Eddie Del Rio Sr. who
you also read about is buried in Texas. Those are all of the deceased people in my
family I know of. These peoples ethnicities were mexican and samoan.

This is all the things I have learned about in my topic. I hope you enjoyed about
the people in my family tree. I also hope that you understand a little bit about my
ethnicity.
