Today's chapter is a little odd, in that it splits right in the middle of a narrative and drops into a family tree for most of the rest of the passage. The story picks up again in the last couple verses, but it doesn't really go anywhere. I suspect the next chapter should be interesting, though, as the last thing we read today is Moses once again calling into question his ability to go before Pharaoh. It is a good thing that God is patient, as I imagine that all of Moses' whining was getting old.

We can not know the exact amount of years, but we now know that Moses was 3 (or 2, depending how you look at it) generations from Joseph's, at least. Moses' father was Amram (mother Jochebed; Amram's aunt!), Amram's father was Kohath (Jochebed's brother), and Kohath's father being Levi, himself.
