Extreme family-treeing with the Livingstons
I think I’ve got it now.

Tuesday, November 17 at 2 P.M. ET

There are Livingstons everywhere and it's enough to make one's head spin. In an attempt to make sense of it all, I’ve doodled my way through countless Livingston family trees. Even managed to connect a president or two. Can I make it through an hour-long presentation without getting discombobulated? There’s only one way to find out!
