Hello Dan,
Thank you for answering; yes, I have looked at it - I think that's
when I decided it might be best to just order a nice wall chart from
Legacy.... then told myself, "but you're not finished here yet" and
decided I'd just print out a simple pedigree "line chart" myself for
now with what I have to date (since I'll never be "finished", - will anyone?).
I will look at it once again, though - try not to tremble. I did a
simple Ancestry "narrative chart" for my eldest half-sister last
year, that's just one name on back to the mid 1500's and that stacked
up to fill a 3" thick binder (included all tho). I'm going to have
to stop researching for a bit I think and take time to play with
Legacy, go where I've never gone before?
You people are all so very helpful - my deepest thanks,
Kate

Kate,
Have you taken a look at Legacy Charting Deluxe (version 7) ...
specifically the Ancestor Chart?
It makes a nice chart of Direct Line Ancestors that is customizable
and possibly takes less paper than the method below. The finished
chart can even be ordered from a professional printing service, for
a reasonable price, printed for you in a way suitable for framing.

Subject: [LegacyUG] Re Pedigree chart of Direct Line Ancestors
/This question is similar to Diane's....
I'd like to print out a simple Pedigree line of Direct Line
Ancestors (grandparents, no siblings etc.) -- the same sort of chart
that appears on screen when one hits "pedigree" on the task bar. I
did a trial run at this several times but when it comes to "preview"
that mini-printer on the preview screen flies out what looks like
hundreds of pieces of paper and after waiting a full five minutes
the last time it was till tossing out pages and not
'"complete".... Compared to some of your DB's mine is miniscule
(only a bit over 20,000 folks) and not all direct line grandparents
of course, tho some lines are back to the 700's (I know many of you
are way past that too).
So I wondered if anyone might tell me how to do this - horizontally,
not vertically (have done those okay) using ordinary 8 1/2 x 11 "
paper (glue it all together later????)
Somewhere while reading "tips" I saw and now can't find instructions
for a circular pedigree chart which was suggested as a good way of
finding those straight line ancestors whose lines are shorter than
the rest thus need working on - made sense but I thought the
straight horizontal line Pedigree might show the same and I wanted
to do this for my grandson (get him interested in history!) - and
also for me to just be able to visualize things better.
Thank you for any assisance.
Kate
