I am wanting to write everything up into book format and was wondering if anyone would know where i could find samples of family histories, i am still not sure what sore of layout to use or how to index it or what genealogical numbering system to use so anything at all will be appreciated |

If you have a family tree programme like Family Tree Maker it gives you the option of printing your tree out in a book format. |

Hello Quiet...... I borrowed a book from the library Called "Who was your Grannys' Granny " by Diane Marrelli.... Republished as "Meet Your ancestors" Tells the story of her own family research but read like a novel..... If you belong to a library, worth a look.... My local also has a book that gives you tips on writing your family history. |

Marilyn what a good idea the Springback Book Binders seem because we are always updating our families records so it would be easy to alter our records without to much disruption. Irene |

I've used the springback binders several times now and they are really good. |
