FORMS FOR RECORDING GENEALOGICAL INFORMATION
It is important to teach the patron to keep a paper "hardcopy" of genealogical records as a backup, so they can
use them when
no computer is available, or when they want to make scrapbooks to show their guests. Forms can also be great ways to collect data at family reunions. You can pass them
out and let the relatives fill them at your direction. Click on chart names below for detailed information on use, or on download links to get free forms to print out.
Pedigree Charts Build an ancestral tree by organizing the generations, and linking each person with their two biological parents.
