Chart types
Descendant chart posters
A descendant chart starts with a couple at the top and fans down through their children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. It is the poster everyone gathers around at a reunion.
Couples together
Each card shows a person and their spouse, so every household reads as one.
Up to five generations
From great-great-grandparents down to the youngest cousins.
Made for gatherings
Print it for a reunion, an anniversary or a milestone birthday and let people find themselves.
Questions
How big should a descendant poster be?
Wide families need room: choose 24 × 36 or 36 × 48 in landscape for more than about thirty people. The preview warns you when names get too small.
Can I hide dates for living relatives?
Yes, and it is on by default. Living people show their names only.
