Thanks to all who responded to my 13 Nov request for suggestions on how to prepare a single descendant chart which starts with two different sets of ancestors. I've looked into Legacy as recommended and while I like the look of the chart it doesn't do what I want (and I've not found any program that will do so). I may be doing something incorrectly but I could only get it to print four generations. The long and short of it is that I will have two charts printed by a genealogical printer and sent to the families and they can put them together as they wish. The knowledge on this list is wonderful and I get so many tips on how to improve my research. Problem is I could spend 24/7 on the computer just reading and following up leads. Merry Christmas to all and a very happy 2013!! Carrol Drew Canada
