Genelines features a suite of seven different timeline chart formats, consisting of two biographical and five relationship charts. Each of these seven charts can be customized according to: timeline, historical events, personal or family events, colors, fonts and border type. The relationship charts even allow you to add people who are not necessarily related.

Each type of chart also lends itself to different research tasks, which will be explored more fully as we illustrate each of the charts individually. All Genelines charts can be previewed and printed in full color, in various sizes - including wall charts - or published to PDF and incorporated into a web page or shared by e-mail.

Biographical Charts

Genelines biographical charts let you create a visual map of your ancestors’ life events, telling their story in a brand new way. Include such events as career path, relationships, place of residence, etc., and compare these life experiences with those of other relatives in your database.
