Well you could use any of the genealogy chapters in the Bible. The Jewish people were very concerned about their heritage (and are) because they knew they could trace the lineage of the Savior through it so check out any of these verses: Numbers (almost the entire book but especially the first few chapters) and Matthew 1:1-17 shows the genealogy of Jesus Christ. Best wishes -sounds like a fun project. :)

2 Timothy 1:5 - I have been reminded of your sincere faith, which first lived in your grandmother Lois and in your mother Eunice and, I am persuaded, now lives in you also.
This verse speaks of a 3 generations of believers.
Psalm 33:11 - But the plans of the LORD stand firm forever, the purposes of his heart through all generations.
Psalm 78:6 - so the next generation would know them, even the children yet to be born, and they in turn would tell their children.
Psalm 79:13 - Then we your people, the sheep of your pasture, will praise you forever; from generation to generation we will recount your praise.
Genesis 16:10 - The angel added, "I will so increase your descendants that they will be too numerous to count."
Genesis 28:14 - Your descendants will be like the dust of the earth, and you will spread out to the west and to the east, to the north and to the south. All peoples on earth will be blessed through you and your offspring.
Genesis 32:12 - 'I will surely make you prosper and will make your descendants like the sand of the sea, which cannot be counted.' "

Start with the geneology from the Bible saying Adam begot Seth, Seth begot Kenan, and so forth til it gets to you. Have fun tracing you roots to Adam.

Joshua 24:15
But if serving the LORD seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your forefathers served beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the LORD."

I don't know of one like that. But the book of Numbers is like that. Matthew and Luke give genealogies of Jesus. These give proof of descendent's, as well as ownership.

How about this one:
Behold, I will corrupt your seed, and spread dung upon your faces, even the dung of your solemn feasts; and one shall take you away with it.
