Unfortunately, first-hand knowledge falls into the category of WP:Primary sources, so it's used only in limited circumstances. Additionally, we have no way to verify that you're a member of the family; verifiability is a requirement for information in articles. Accordingly, it's best to find where the information has been published in secondary sources, such as newspaper articles. —C.Fred (talk) 04:02, 18 August 2011 (UTC)Reply
