Charts for Other Interests[edit | edit source]
If your interest is in such broader topics as Military Ancestors, Causes of Death, Family Religions, Family Sizes, Longevity, Occupations or anything else it is simple to prepare charts containing this information. These could be pedigree charts or custom made ones of any description. A popular display is a photographic pedigree chart containing a small picture of each ancestor as far back as possible. An example of this is the Family Portrait Tree (below) by Warren Sadler of Abbotsford, B.C. We have omitted the usual identification of living family members here, for privacy.
