Position:Home>Genealogy> Does anyone know how to do a Family tree?

I'm not sure if you're asking 'literally' about drawing the family tree or if you mean how do you research his family history, so I'll give short answers to both!.

If you're literally just wanting to draw his tree, you can download a blank template like this one http://www!.trustyguides!.com/Genealogy_Pr!.!.!. or go a little fancier like this one http://www!.nalw!.org/images/familytree!.jp!.!.!. !.

If you mean how do you do the research, then this is a pretty good site:

I don't mean anything at all insulting by this but I would recommend that you pick up the COMPLETE IDIOT'S GUIDE TO GENEALOGY (or GENEALOGY FOR DUMMIES) from a library or bookstore (about $20 each, but most public libraries would have them) as they're also good basic starter guides!. Depending on how far back you want to go it can take minutes or "however much time you got" ;)!.

Good luck!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I would start with him and go backwards!. If he has family still living then they can answer any questions that you may have as to who preceded him!. Above him would be his parents, then above them would be his grandparents on both sides!. Don't forget his siblings along with both his parents siblings and both his grandparents siblings!. Good luck!.!.!.!.!.!.!.my mother did that for her family and ended up going back to 1703!. It was interesting read!Www@QuestionHome@Com
