Hi Carol I did notice you didn't actually get a reply to your original question or at least haven't seen one, I was expecting there to be many As you will no doubt be aware all software has a learning curve, so IMHO I doubt any software would be useful to simply display without learning how to use it, so the already suggested pdf output might be the option Most of the major suppliers have a free to use version, some limited by time, others by number, yet more by facility but all would do what you want, ie produce a chart or charts to enable a non genealogist to understand them to a point (but would depend upon their competence in producing a report of course) I still use PAF which I am more than satisfied with, but as its no longer supplied by the LDS, perhaps an alternative might be Ancestral Quest who supplied PAF in the first place, very easy to use and they do a free version AQ also runs on both Mac and Windows machines but I presume they are different downloads? http://www.ancquest.com/index.htm By coincidence a reply to a similar request for information on software had a reply regarding Gramps, which is entirely free and has a Windows and Mac version https://gramps-project.org/ Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) On 15/07/2016 12:43, Carol Botteron via wrote: > Thank you all for the suggestions.
