The history of the Lange family spans back almost over 100 years ago with the birth of Grandfather Clark Lange in 1917 who then married Catherine Phelan (b: 1922) in November of 1946, which then began the Lange family lineage. Catherine and Clark gave birth to Walter (b: 1947), Anne (b: 1949), Paul (b: 1951), Mary (b: 1954), Brian (b: 1957), and Peter (b: 1961) into the family. From there, Water and Carol Ann Ronan who married in August of 1970 gave birth to Daniel Lange in 1973, Catherine Lange in 1971, and Courtney Lange in 1971. These are the main Lange’s who helped shaped and build our family to that way it is now. We then see the following marriages play out which then introduced the younger generation of the Lange family. Anne Lange marries Wendell Han Fah Yee in August of 1985 in Washington DC. Catherine Lange marries Christopher John Mackin in May of 2000 in Gaithersburg, MD. Daniel Lange marries Amy Hamstead in September of 2001 in Pittsburgh, PA. Daniel and Amy are now divorced. Courtney Lange marries Adam Hollis in August of 2006 in New Hampshire. Paul Lange marries Jennifer Ann Mann in September of 1979 in New York, NY. Mary Lange marries John Allen Wilson in February of 1988 in Austin, TX. Brian Lange marries Yadwiga Kozlowska in 1954 in May of 1992 in Bristol, CT. Lastly, Peter marries Kathryn Lisa Pitz in November of 1988 in Windsor, CT. We see the births of Elizabeth Carol Mackin (b: 2002) and Claire Elise Mackin (b: 2004) who are daughters of Catherine and Chris Mackin. Dylan (b: 2005) and Rylie (b: 2008) are the son and daughter of Daniel and Amy. Courtney and Adam Hollis give birth to Anna Hollis in 2009 and John Hollis in 2012.

He has been able to meet just about every single Supreme Court Justice that is currently sitting on the bench now. He has practically has a personal connection to the Supreme Court Justices just for serving as tour guide for the Supreme Court. It is not everyday that one can say this about one of their family members. Also, not many people are able to volunteer as a docent. The Lange family history expands almost over 100 years of history and heritage. Between all the generations that the Lange’s have lived through, they have lived through a lot of major social events and other major political events. Some of these events include the Civil Rights Act, The Beatles, women liberties, Prohibition and the Great Depression. These events leave a lasting legacy and a footprint in the Lange family’s history.
In America’s time there have been many great men who have spent their lives creating this great country. Men such as George Washington, John Adams, and Thomas Jefferson fit these roles. They are deemed America’s “founding fathers” and laid the support for the most powerful country in history. However, one more man deserves his name to be etched into this list. His name was John Marshall, who decided case after case during his role as Chief Justice that has left an everlasting mark on today’s judiciary, and even society itself. Through Cases such as Marbury v. Madison (1803) and McCulloch v. Maryland (1819) he established the Judicial Branch as an independent power. One case in particular, named Gibbons v. Ogden (1824), displayed his intuitive ability to maintain a balance of power, suppress rising sectionalism, and unite the states under the Federal Government.
... eye. While Toobin gave me great insight to the people who make up the Supreme Court, this book has become dated in some aspects. Stevens and Souter no longer are a part of the Supreme Court. As this book shows, each individual Justice makes up the personality of Supreme Court, which is now sightly different, without Justices Stevens and Souter. The nine justices in the book served together longer than any other group of Justices. Toobin describes the how each of the Justices got appointed to the Supreme court, including the failed nominations that ultimately brought each of the Justices to the Supreme court. The Supreme Court shapes our country in ways that no other branch of government can, because they are appointed for life. Ultimately, nominating a Supreme Court Justics, is one of the most far reaching and lasting way a president can shape our nation.

During his early life, John Roberts was the ideal student by displaying hard work and dedication in all of his studies and also participating in school sports such as wrestling and football where he was given the honor to be captain of the team. He was also very successful in college after graduating from Harvard College and Harvard Law both with honors. Many can find the present Chief of Justice as admirable considering all of his successes in college and how it is understandable that someone with that type of background deserves a position in the supreme court.

People study history because they wish to strengthen human connections. The same can be drawn about the pursuit of genealogy. Whether it be connections to nobility, to a specific ethnic group or a specific event in history, there are diverse motivations to study genealogy According to Francois Weil, “Genealogy provides a powerful lens to understand personal and collective identities.” In essence Weil’s Family Trees: A History of Genealogy in America is a study of American identity over a span of four centuries through a discussion of genealogy and family history.

Marshall, being a minority, became interested in becoming a lawyer to help minorities gain equal opportunities as whites. Thurgood originally named “Thouroughgood” after his grandfather was born on July 2, 1908 in Baltimore, Maryland. His father was William Marshall, a steward, and his mother Norma Williams, a teacher. Growing up, Thurgood's mom wanted him to become a dentist while his dad hoped at least one of his sons would become a lawyer. Marshalls first contact with the law began in high school because he would do poorly in school and always misbehaved. As a punishment his high school[Baltimore’s Colored High and Training School] made Marshall sit and read the U.S constitution. Thurgood also credits his father for making him choose his career as a lawyer and “making him an advocate and these discussions at home with stimulating his interest in competitive debating and confronting injustice” (Gibson 44) Marshall states “‘He never told me to become a lawyer, but he turned me into one… he taught me how to argue, and challenged my logic on every point.’” (Whitelaw 12) Marshall’s father stimulate...
