Since Nan is writing a new Home story, I've added the very latest and enlarged and cleaned up the image. The new file automatically replaces all the other files wherever they are. Artemis I just fixed this one too. For the bigger file go to bighomegen.jpg and bighomegen2.jpg

Wow. Nice work, Artemis. LabRat

Thank you, LabRat. I started it when Nan started her Home series and it has grown immensely. I needed it because I was loosing track of the characters. Nan complimented me by saying she uses it now when writing her stories Also, Pam put a link to it on the Archive page for Nan's stories. Artemis

How did I not realize that Lori was a descendant of Lucy!??!?!?! That was only revealed in a fairly recent story by Nan. I don't have to ferret this stuff out, she e-mails me the tidbits as she writes the stories. Artemis P.S. A tip of the hat to all the folks in the U.K. I only started mapping out family trees because of my fascination with the Kings (and Queens) of England. It started when I was in about 5th grade.

Thanks, Artemis. I recently reread Nan's home series and I have to tell you that I printed off your list and kept it beside me the whole time . So thanks for your work on this. It really is a great tool. ML

The fact that Lori is descended from Lucy Lane is mentioned in Home: Obsession, Carol. Definitely not one of the shorter ones ...

Yeah - I reread a ton yesterday trying to find it:). Turns out the only one I hadn't read was the New Year's one [but I didn't remember reading the Christmas one or the one with Uma till I was like half way through - *sigh* - must put 'Home' on my 'to reread more often' list ]. I *had* read Obsession, but didn't remember that part! I blame pregnancy hormones. Yep, that's my story and I'm sticking to it!!! Carol

The fact that Lori is descended from Lucy Lane is mentioned in Home: Obsession Nan, I could have sworn it was also mentioned in one of the very early stories. Am I wrong? And will there be super powered beings that we haven't met yet? Sue

No, Lori only found out about her great grandmother Lucy Lane in Obsession. And there are definitely super-people you haven't met.

Where is Puma on that list? Jon Kent?

When in doubt, think about time travel conundrums. You'll confuse yourself so you can forget what you were in doubt about.

Artemis takes care of the family tree for me and she is out of contact for another week. Yes, Jon Kent is Puma, and Carrie Olsen is Solar Flare. Perry Kent is Vortex.

I was wondering after reading the end of part 9 and being able to match up three of the heroes but not the fourth.

Hi, I'm back. Just downloading Nan's new story parts. We were out of computer range for a while and I'm jetlagged (a 3 hour delay in DFW will do that to you), so I'll get to it shortly. As before, the file will be updated automatically whereever it is posted. Soon Artemis

I'd make a column of "home" residences, i.e. where they most often help and "live".

Hey, Artemis, nice work! I'm going to assume you're okay with me linking to this graphic from Nan's series guide page? (Nan, I think I've got that up-to-date now) PJ

Pam, feel free to link and add the "Homenames.jpg" to your list on the Archive. It's all up to date now with Nan's help. Thanks for the suggestion, woody. It looks better. Artemis

Okay, I've linked it next to the Kent Family Tree link -- I called it a "Superhero Chart" but if you've got any clever suggestions, I'll take 'em I saw the updated version, too -- I agree, it looks better. PJ

That sounds like a fine name. I needed something short for the file name. That looks good on the Archive. We've got a whole mini-industry going with Nan's stories Artemis

Who exactly is Clark "supposed" to be the son of? Jon?

I think Clark is just supposed to be everyone's second cousin. Lori went looking for his background, early on, and couldn't find much, so I don't think he's officially anybody's son. That sort of definite statement could be too easily proved false.

Yeah, I think that's right, Pam. IIRC, Nan remarked that Ryan and Clark really looked alike. Since they all look so young "everyone's second cousin" would work out. Even we need a map to figure it out Artemis

Aha! I knew I had a later one than the 2005 one. Anyway, tomorrow when my brain is less tired, I'll post the new one in a new thread. There were 3 new superheroes revealed at the LAFF 2007 auction. I made a 2 page wall chart since it had expanded. Instructions will come with it Artemis
