Review from Family History Monthly Magazine:If you want to give someone an unusual gift, a presentation of their family tree might just fit the bill. This CD contains a number of decorative family tree designs, ready and waiting for you to add your genealogical details. They are fun, rather than serious research, and include designs suitable for children. The CD contains a PDF catalogue of the images and high quality TIFF images of all the charts. You can print them out on a colour printer and then practice your calligraphy, or add the names using a graphic program before printing.
