According to the web page link below you can run Pedigree for DOS on Windows 7 (32-bit) OK, but needs free utility DosBox for the 64-bit version. See http://pugweb.org.uk/faq/pediwin BTW Ancestral Sources 32-bit will run on 32-bit or 64-bit PC, but AS 64-bit only runs on 64-bit PC with a slight performance improvement over AS 32-bit.

Anne, This will get pretty much what you want with an Ancestor Diagram. (1) In the Diagram Options on General tab untick Check for duplicates to eliminate flared ribbon between duplicate Grandparents (2) Right-click in turn on the two Grandparents nearest the centre of tree and choose Hide. (3) Open the Diagram > Movement Control Box and select Box & Bar radio button. (4) Drag the small white diamonds on line connecting each Grandparent to their son to move the visible Grandparents as near each other as possible. (4) Use the Diagram > Insert into Diagram > Line option and draw a horizontal line between the two small white diamonds. This gets you quite close to what you want.

You made me rethink there Anne, but they WERE first cousins....................the slip was in what I wrote...............should have been - two Alabaster brothers married two Agass sisters whose CHILDREN married ( one male Alabaster and a female Alabaster)............ sorry to have confused you.

These coloured 'swoop' lines occur all over my tree, joining duplicate couples. I believe it is simply because if they were only shown once the tree would be a nightmare of crossing lines.

Firstly, thank you Adrian. You are far more advanced than me, the stretching, moving and pulling fills me with terror! Larraine, these are not first cousins, it is the great grandparents of the couple who are the same. Yes, I too have admired the swoops. I think I am after the unobtainable! I usually do an ancestor tree as it cuts out all the siblings and takes up less space. I was trying to save time. I will do a descendant tree and hide the siblings, which will probably take less time in the long run. It is a good job that my new contact is descended from Susannah, and not her sister Emma, who married yet another distant cousin! They are all Duncalfs of course. On another matter, I think I have finally got to the bottom of creating new facts!! It's only taken me two years so perhaps one day I will be able to put two trees together, and do other more complicated things. :-) Thanks for the help everyone.
