Rough Draft-History of my name

Erin Elizabeth Smith

When my parent were expexting a baby they thought I was going 2 be a boy. So they already had the name Carston in mind. But when they found out it was a girl they froze and didn’t know what to do. So at the last minute they can up with the name Erin. They pick that name because it wasn’t a common name back then and they like the flow of it.

My middle name is Elizabeth because of my 2 Great Grandma’s. Its from my great grandma smith and my great grandma shearer. Smith is my dad’s last name and shearer is my mom’s maiden name. Now going back to the first paragraph. If I was a boy my middle name would have been Andrew. My parents pick that name because its my dads name. So if i was a boy i would have had my dads name, but no. I am a girl and my middle name is Elizabeth.

My last name is Smith. Smith goes all the way back to the 1700’s. It is from Germany. Then Smith moved from germany to hanover, PA. Hanavor is where my family is from. then my parents moved york and this is where i’ve been living for all my life.
