My Family Geneaology

I decided to do my family genealogy. I was surprised by how difficult this actually was. I went on to ancestry.com and started to map out what I knew. I called my mom's mom (my grandma) and got names connecting to us. I enjoyed hearing a story about how my great grandma and grandpa got together. She was half Mexican and it was a scandal because he was supposed to marry a full blooded German girl his family picked out for him. Instead he fell in love with Dorothy. His family would not speak to him for a couple years after they first got married. It was like connecting to people that are apart of my history. If they never had fallen in love I wouldn't be born.
 
 
I know the picture is small with the actual family tree but you can enlarge it if you click on it. I tried copying and pasting it from word but it altered it a lot. I also tried copying from ancestry.com and it didn't work.
This is my family tree... or part of it.
