How to build a
family tree using this website
In the name index, locate the person whose ancestry you’re
interested in and click on the link for that person. You will be taken
to that person’s entry on the respective generation page, where
you’ll find details of marriage, children, etc. Immediately to the
right of the person’s name you’ll see a number of hyperlinks which
point to, in order, the person’s father, grandfather,
great-grandfather etc. You can use these links to gradually navigate
your way upward through the family tree. Conversely, you can click on
the link for any of the children listed for a particular person to
navigate your way downward through the tree.
If a person’s name is listed in plain bold black type (i.e. not as a
hyperlink) that means either that the person had no children or that
their descendants are not on the website.
Unfortunately, because of the limitations of the software I’m using
to maintain this website, I can’t offer graphically constructed
family trees for on-site viewing. What you can do, though, is send me
an e-mail here and ask me for my GEDCOM file (which I will definitely not
supply to anyone running a pay site).
