What would you want to see in a heritage based display?

Since I am hosting the Graham Clan tent next year at the Portland Highland Games, I need ideas as to what people would want to see of their heritage if they were visiting a tent about their family history. I have banners, maps, books, tartan, flags and some other things planned out already.

What should I add to my displays? ANY INPUT IS WELCOME! :-)

    Do you have a family crest?  Be great on a t-shirt.

    I do have a family crest that will be displayed. It is on a wooden shield with our tartan and crest overlaid on it. Plus the crest will be displayed on multiple other items as well... Our banner, a parade banner and a few other items.

    A family tree that traces lineage.

    Oh I love that idea! But what im gonna run into is there are SOOOOOO many branches to the Graham Clan that I wont know which direction to go with it. I could focus on my line but I only have as far back as very early 1700s when my line first arrived in the US. I will look into that and maybe use that showing my line at least...
