Tips for Using Templates

Printing

For best results, print on cardstock or high-quality paper. Select "Actual size" in your print settings to ensure proper scaling. SVG files can be opened in any browser and printed from there.

Filling In Your Chart

Start with yourself and work backwards. Use pencil first so you can make corrections. Include full names, dates with locations, and source citations where possible.
