This would help me as well since I have a number of Welchs, if you use family tree maker try this Family Tree Maker is a versatile program but most people don't realize they can send several different types of charts as well as a quick and easy outline via email, [without the need for attachments, which are the bane of the Internet]. The outline is by far the easiest, all you to is click on outline, click on contents, items to include, choose name, all three dates [b,m,d] in location, spouse's father, take out the short default date or you will have double dates, click on contents again and choose 2 or 3 generations, don't send people 10 generations down to your grandchildren unless they ask, besides it is a bad idea to send out so much personal information to strangers. Then just click on edit and copy the outline, and simply paste into email. You only have to choose items to include the first time, the program remembers this the next time. There are 3 charts you can create but these must be copied, pasted to word, cut from word, and pasted to email which seems like a lot of work to me when the outline is so easy, but… Click on GEN REPT, click on format and choose one. Click on contents and choose options, you don't have to include the notes, which makes a shorter chart, then choose 2 or 3 generations. First is the register style which prints the entire name in ALL CAPS and skips lines between most people, this form takes up a lot of space and the all caps are hard to read. Second is a much better form called the NGS format, which is descent ordered and prints a nice compact list of children, then in the second gen. lists the children that you have more info on and their children. It is by far superior to the register style. Third is the ancestor chart which does just that, prints out ancestors, you can choose how many generations, again it is best to choose only 2 or 3. Family Tree Maker is an amazing program and every six months or so you should skim through the manual to see if you can learn something new.
