WOW! It turned out a fabulous present. I'd love to have a sister like you!!! Would it be asking too much for a visual on the tree in the spare room? Did you get the tree printed by professionals or was it out of your own computer?

Hi Biddybarracks,

Unfortunatly it has been consigned temporarily back into its container as my sister now has her 3 young grandchildren around for a couple of weeks on holiday  and she didnt want sticky fingers on it!
I got the tree printed by www.genealogyprinters.com who were extremely helpful.  You just had to email them your gedcom file and then they would provide you with a link so that you could see an overview of how it would look before they printed it out on one sheet of very long paper! I would certainly recommend giving them a look at if anyone wanted a similar present/print out done. 

Of course it is now out of date.  2 days after it was printed a  cousin had a little boy!  Never mind it was just a bit of fun!

Isn't family history great?! No matter how far we get with our research, it never ends! Always something old to uncover, or someone new to add. Thanks for the link to genealogyprinters.com. I must try them out as the tree I'm working with will take a lot of paper too!
