"Family History" is either the history of a family's descendants and/or relatives, i.e., GENEALOGY; or, it is the story of extrafamiliar events in which one's extended family's members were involved, e.g., "Where were my aunts and uncles during World War II?", in which case it could be classified as ORAL HISTORY, if it were orally transmitted, or as the Library of Congress calls it when it involves documents, letters or pictures, film or recordings; "AMERICAN MEMORY".
