[babylicious36]

Does anyone have any family tree templates?
I would like to do a 5 generation tree for my daughters book.

The difficulty comes in wanting to do a FIVE generation tree but here's something or NOT.....

MH51... That is a very nice layout. I was just wondering though....

Many times when we ask for something, we are not explicit enough. So I wanted to ask Mell.... Do you want the family tree to include pictures, with maybe a caption at the bottom telling who the person is? Because MH51's layout can be adapted for that. Of course, the problem is, how do you put that many photos and captions on one tree, on one page?

So, I was thinking, that you could have the first page of the album as being the tree trunk, with the root parents on it, then have subsequent pages with each "branch" of the family on it's own page. This will give you more room for pictures, captions and journaling. Maybe the pages can be done chronologically, with the first born's family on the first page, and so on.

Just a thought. I may be totally off base here, but it's hard to know exactly what our dear friends here need unless we are given a little more details.

But, MH51, you're definately got somethign there. Hmmmm, this is giving me some ideas....

Thank you ladies.

Im just wanting to put their names, DOB,death if applicable and where they were born. Basically only half the tree will be done at the moment as we have nothing to do with my daughters father
