Thanks for stopping by! I'm sure by now you know how passionate I am about genealogy and preserving family history. I'm dedicated to teaching those wishing to learn the right way of investigating, analyzing and reporting genealogical findings.
But let's face it, genealogy is just plain fun. I love the hunt, the discovery and the excitement of sharing with others.
What you may not know (besides my lifelong passion for genealogy) is I’ve had a long career in television broadcasting and management. I’m also a wildlife and nature photographer.
Now is the time for me to take all these skills into a new side-kick. I’m using my talents in photography, television, video production, editing, and as a lifelong genealogist, combining those skills together to create the Genealogy TV and NC Ancestry as KZfaq channels along with similar websites and blogs.

That was a good primer for budding genealogists. This semi-experienced genealogist liked it, too.

The disadvantages you have given are exactly the type of problems I've been facing for many years. Since I have over 2000 names in my family tree with many cousin marriages, another drawback with these charts is that they do not show the inter-marriages unless you do it manually by cuttting and taping. Therefore, I have no time for that and prefer to represent my family using Libre Office Draw which I only discovered recently from Useful Charts' youtube channel. It is not a genealogical software and you have to do everything manually. However, at the end of the day it would at least represent my entire family exactly how I want it represented. Until a better software comes along, I will continue using my old PAF (and PAF Companion) software for data entry but use Libre Office Draw for designing the chart myself. There is no software out there that I know of that solves my problem.

Thanks for this recommendation. I'd not heard of it, but have been challenged to find free software to do trees and other graphics the way I want them done. Thanks.
