Rough Draft!

Jacob Louis Caralle. Yes, that’s my name. I was born into a household with an older brother Seth, my older sister Katelyn, my mom Julia, and my dad Louis. I got Jacob from my Mom’s side. Her uncle was named Jacob Stewart, and she had a great relationship with him. She wanted me to be the kind of man he was, so she decided to name me Jacob. She also said it was a popular name in the 1990s so she thought the name would fit me great.

I got my middle name “Louis” from many people. My Dad and my Grandpa’s name is Louis. I was originally going to be Louis the 3rd, but my mom decided to make it my middle name instead. Many of my father’s cousins have the name Louis also. It has been a tradition for most of my family to have one of their kids named Louis.

I obviously got my last name from my father. But there is more to it than that. On the way over to America, a fight broke out on the ship and most of my family was killed. The only Caralle s left was my great great grandma and grandpa. They somehow survived and made it to America, but the whole family had to start over in the 1700’s.
