kerryegg Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Hi. I have just begun a family tree search. Another sign of advancing years. I have signed up to an excellant site but really need to print off a chart to fill in manually as I discover information. I know it can be done on line but I,m afraid I find pen and paper easier. Any ideas. I would also like to be able to type in all info eventually to print. I am finding it really interesting. Fortunately we have some unusaul family names but unfortunately like me some of my ancestors were not great at spelling! Thanks for any suggestions.

MummyHen Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 You don't way which site but on Ancestry and FMP you can print off the info. Ancestry as some blank templates that you can manually fill in http://www.ancestry.co.uk/trees/charts/familysheet.aspx then on the right is a list of charts & forms - these are PDF Not sure if you need a sub for these if you do PM me and I will send you the PDF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kerryegg Posted November 28, 2011 Author Share Posted November 28, 2011 Brilliant thanks. I am with Ancestry and have found the forms. Just need to wait till husband gets home as I need to download the reader. Last time I did something new I got a virus so I'm taking no chances. Thanks for your help. Can always rely on chicken folk.

craftyhunnypie Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 My father in law researched The Family Tree. He gave it to me! He did a lot of his research at The National Library in Aberystwyth. I believe they hold a lot of records?! Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Webmuppet Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 I researched my family tree a couple of years ago. I found quite a few skeletons ( my Great Grandfather it appears went through women like I go through chocolate) and a whole bunch of new relatives. Be prepared to put in a lot of time and to do a bit of travelling. If you get chance go to Who Do You Think You Are Live in London. There are experts there who might be able to help if you get stuck plus there is free access to the various systems including the 1911 census ( which was pretty new out when I was doing the research). A good site to use is Free BMD as you can use it to cross match marriages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kerryegg Posted November 29, 2011 Author Share Posted November 29, 2011 Thanks for the help. At this stage I intend just basic 4 generations then kids can continue if they wish but I am getting more and more interested so who knows.Still on the free trial but I think the subscription will be my Christmas present from me to me.
