Me and my ancestors - single word


I'd like to find a single noun that relates to me and which corresponds to the list of people including me and each of my ancestors.


I've already rejected the following words:



  • genealogy : means a work, not a list of people.

  • ancestry : seems to exclude me.



Answer




line of descent.


Noun - the kinship relation between an individual and the individual's progenitors. ≡filiation, lineage, descent
