Family tree form
From: Peggy
DearMYRTLE,
I am hoping you can help me. I am looking for a family tree model (a simple
format) to hand out as a take-home exercise, as part of a "heritage" and
cultural sensitivity module I've developed for our post-secondary school. Can
you direct me to some free resources, perhaps designed for kids? Thanks for any
suggestion you might have.
DearPEGGY,
Most genealogists use a software program to enter the names/dates/places. A free
one is available at
www.familysearch.org and it is called
PAF Personal Ancestral File.
This one is shaped like a tree. Just download a
.pdf file and it will print out on 8.5 X11" paper, probably the best for your
handout.

Here is a cute semi-circular pedigree chart from
