Thanks for the info Marlene. Actually it was one of my co-workers who wanted a wall chart. After seeing some of them I think it would be nice to have a couple of the smaller ones for each of my branches just to have something on the walls. Although my family trees are not as large as some have 1500 individuals are too many to chart. So I would just do my direct line.
