Hi- I'm trying to find a way to corral the family tree info I've gathered to share with relatives- including photos etc- can anyone suggest a book template they've used that's not too complicated ? I'd like to see how the text and photos etc look when laid out properly- Thanks for any suggestions- Thompson in PEI

Greetings, May I suggest that there are many genealogy programs, some very basic, some more concerned with linking the family tree to prominant people of history, some are free www.familysearch.org some add more features seemingly according to cost. I would suggest that you try some of the free programs before you try paying. Perhaps the quesion may be asked why are you doing the Family History? Are you willing to share data? Are you fascinated by history, are you able to work at a 'brickwall' perhaps for a number of years............the delight at a breakthrough is incredible!! Best wishes, how may I be of service?

Hi Dutch Maybe the following Book Templates might be of some use help. I haven't used them myself as I have made my own narrative type books of various family lines. I think you should be able to customise these as well. http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~wiburlgs/Family_History.doc Family History Book Template 1 (Word format) http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~wiburlgs/Family_History_2.doc Family History Book Template 2 (Word format) They are from http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~wiburlgs/page3.html - at the bottom of the page.
