Hi I have FTM 2010, it might depend on your version. If you then start with yourself as the highlighted individual go to Publish>collection>charts>vertical pedigree chart and select how many generations you have got, you should get your ancestors. However if you just want a single line from ancestor 'A' to yourself, set yourself as the 'home person', then go to your oldest ancestor and highlight them, select Publish>charts> relationship chart and you should get the single line cheers Cynthia -----Original Message----- From: Diane McNair Sent: Tuesday, March 25, 2014 11:58 AM To: NEW-ZEALAND@rootsweb.com Subject: [nz] Single line descendant chart I have the Family Tree Maker program and would like to know how to make a chart, from earliest ancestor, born abt 1645, down to self, born 1938, without printing other siblings, and their sub-branches/twigs, in each generation . (hope that makes sense.) Is there a specific chart one must have.? Have tried various ways but the finished charts not satisfactory.
