Modern Genealogy Charts

Have you seen the modern genealogy charts from Latter-Day-Home?  They've teamed up with I-Chart-You to create some really pretty and simple charts.  Choose from grey ombre or one of their great color combinations.

Genealogy Fan Chart

I have been getting more interested in genealogy lately, and I discovered a new site that pulls information from FamilySearch to generate a 9-generation fan chart! I made this one for Christmas, but this new tool makes it really easy to gather the information that you need. This is the sample chart (mine has a big empty gap on one side - I know where to start working!). Go to createfan.com and login with your FamilySearch ID (the same that you'd use on lds.org).

Fan Chart

I finished our 6 generation family fan chart for Christmas. I used this template from Martha Stewart. I used a pretty script font, so the names our rather small - but it looks great on the wall. I made it 18"x24" and had it printed at an office store. So exciting!

Genealogy Fan Chart

I went to our Family History Center last week and discovered some great features on the new FamilySearch. I'm getting excited about genealogy again. I even made up this fan chart of Jane Austen's ancestry to tie in with my Jane Austen class. So fun.
