I am going to print a children picture book about my ancestor, John Drakeford, born 1853 in England.

Don't know exactly what kind of help you're looking for, but I suggest reading about 1853 England, the surrounding years, and such for parts about their way of life and culture. I googled "1853 England" and found this Wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1853_in_the_United_Kingdom

It would be cool to include in the book stuff about what their house may have looked like, what kinds of jobs they did, and some basic and interesting geography.

You might make the pedigree more interesting with pictures of the people, putting it in a cool format such as one that looks like a tree, and pages about any stories you have about how couples met each other and about each person.

You might hire an illustrator on Fiverr for cheap.

Good luck, and God will bless you!!
