Open your Family Origins file, Go to the File menu Select GEDCOM Export GEDCOM Give the file a name and place to reside On the GEDCOM Export dialogue window, select Select people to export, General and whatever things you wish to include, then click on the OK button Find your Nieces name and select it, then select the Ancestors button In the mark area (GREEN) Select Direct ancestors and their children OK and OK again. Import it into a new, empty database for inspection. You will have the ancestor line and the uncles and aunts, but not the cousins. If you want the cousins, you will probably have to unlink some people in your database to exclude them from the GEDCOM (It would be best to do this in a copy of your main database) Good Luck, Alfred ========= ----- Original Message ----- From: "Richard Thoreson" <retbutch@kc.rr.com> > Hello: > I want to make a Gedcom for our niece which incudes all her ancesters and > their families.
