We examine the behavior of fermions in the presence of a non-singular thick brane having co-dimension 2. It is shown that one can obtain three trapped zero modes which differ from each other by having different values of angular momentum with respect to the 2 extra dimensions. These three zero modes are located at different points in the extra dimensional space and are interpreted as the three generations of fundamental fermions. The angular momentum in the extra dimensions (which is not conserved) acts as the family or generation label. This gives a higher dimensional picture for the family puzzle.
