Printed Genealogical Trees
GEN-FIND also offers its legal clients several types of printed genealogical reports with subtle print options, in black & white. We use various productions produced by two main charting software programs which we feel are the best for our clients’ needs and expectations – Family Tree Maker and Family ChartMasters.
The following is a list of all charts and reports available that we produce for clients using Family Tree Maker (FTM) or Family ChartMasters software, along with their FTM descriptions:
- Register Report
- The Register Report uses a descendant-ordered format starting with an ancestor and moving forward in time to that individual’s descendants. The Register format is the format which is accepted by the New England Historic Genealogical Society, one of the oldest genealogical societies in the country. The Register format dates back to 1870 and is used to establish “pedigree.”
- Ahnentafel Report
- The Ahnentafel Report uses an ancestor-ordered format starting with one individual and moving backward in time to that individual’s ancestors.
- Simple Register Report
- The Simple Register Report uses a descendant-ordered format starting with an ancestor and moving forward in time to that individual’s descendants. This simplified format includes only vital facts in the biographical narratives. Non-vital facts (if included) are listed separately. As mentioned above, The Register format is the format that dates back to 1870 and is used to establish “pedigree.”
- Simple Ahnentafel Report
- The Ahnentafel Report uses an ancestor-ordered format starting with one individual and moving backward in time to that individual’s ancestors. This simplified format includes only vital facts in the biographical narratives. Non-vital facts (if included) are listed separately.
- Kinship Report
- The Kinship Report shows how individuals in your tree are related to a specific person.
- Outline Descendant Report
- The Outline Descendant report shows where everyone fits in the family. Starting with a relative in the past, it moves to the present, showing the primary individual’s children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren and so on, generation by generation in outline format, with each individual on a separate line.
Modern genealogy at GEN-FIND takes full advantage of modern technology. And you can, too. Here’s how to do it.
- If we have done your case research, we will already have your data in our client database for any genealogical chart and report production. There is no need to re-enter the data. Just tell us what you want to produce.
- If you have not done your genealogical work with us, no problem, we will take all the biographical information that you have and enter it into our database, or use a GEDCOM file for database input, for further manipulation and chart/report production. You will have the cost of data-entry, plus cost of the report itself and then the method and cost of delivery to you. GEN-FIND offers full compatibility with many major current genealogical programs, as well as GEDCOM transfer capabilities.
