Hi,
I am wondering if there is an easier way of numbering ancestral charts than the one I have.
I have a couple of branches of family going back 15 generations (which is great - I know), but my ancestral chart numbers are starting at 458 now. I have adopted a system whereby my Ancestral Chart 1 leads onto Charts 2,3,4,5,6,7,8 and tried to keep the numbering consistent.
Do I just throw the consistent bit out of the window and use chart numbers when I need them.
If anybody can point me in the right direction - I would be grateful.
Thanks Peony

Sorry but i couldn't resist this one.  Throw them out the window.
I don't mean to be offensive but i have tried all differant ways and in the end i always end up with duplicates. You have asked a very good question and i hope you can get an answer that we can both use.

Before the Internet came along most 'how to' genealogy books explained things like ancestral chart, numbering, etc. There's probably something available online but wouldn't hurt to see what your local library might have on offer.
I also have some families going back about 15-20 generations and my older 5-generation charts had a line saying for the people in 5th generation saying this person is on chart #_, etc.

Hi,
Thanks for the replies. I have googled the problem, so I think it is the library next.
At least with excel I can keep an index of which family is on which sheet.
I just wondered if their was an easy solution that I had not thought of!

HI,
I have never had to deal with the Gedcom numbering before and I think it may take more that the glance I have just given it to understand it fully.
But thank you very much for this I will take a good look this evening.
