I would like to be able to create some sort of Report, e.g. .DOC or .RTF of the whole of my family file, so that when I depart this life, there would be some sort of readable documentation of everyone in my family (file). Not just my paternal line but everyone, including all the people around the world that are connected in some way to my family.
By doing this I can leave my family history recorded, without a computer program needed to see the file. Is this possible, if so, where would I start? And with whom would I start with? On my maternal side of the family I have been able to trace back into the Scottish kings, via a female line and on my paternal line I have been able to get back, via a female line, to King Alfred and further back still, just following the line of his. My whole database amounts to 11,314 people, plus over 1000 Pictures. I realise this would amount to probably well in excess of 2000 pages, which I would not print out or even edit - I would leave that to some one else in the future!!!! But at least they would have all the information. I would save it all to a CD/DVD to distribute to various people/libraries around the world etc. With regards, Susan Perrett Melbourne, Australia English webpage: http://www.st.net.au/~susanp/index.html American webpage: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~susanp> Research: ALSTON-Suffolk/Bedford/America,post 1850, BOURCHIER-UK, post 1650, CHUDLEIGH-Devon, All, HOLTTUM-Kent,pre 1720,MARTEN-Sussex,pre 1660, OXENDEN-Kent, All.
