Frequently asked questions

What is a pedigree chart?

A pedigree (ancestor) chart starts with one person and branches upward through their parents, grandparents, and further-back ancestors on both the mother's and father's sides. It's the standard shape used for printable family tree templates.

How many generations should I include?

3 generations (you, parents, grandparents) fits comfortably on one page and is easiest to fill in from memory. 4 or 5 generations reach further back to great-grandparents, but the outer boxes get smaller, so they work best when you already have most of those names on hand.

Can I personalize the template before printing?

Yes. Set your own chart title, choose US Letter or A4 paper, and optionally add a siblings row for yourself, all before downloading.

Is this free, and do I need to sign up?

It's completely free with no sign-up required. If you'd rather build a living, editable version instead of filling in a paper template, you can start a free tree on MyRooots any time.
