"People will not look forward to posterity who never look backward to their ancestors." -- Edmund Burke

"When a society or a civilization perishes, one condition can always be found. They forgot where they came from." -- Carle Sandburg

"In all of us there is a hunger, marrow deep, to know our heritage - to know who we are and where we came from. Without this enriching knowledge, there is a hollow yearning. No matter what our attainments in life, there is still a vacuum, an emptiness, and the most disquieting loneliness." -- Alex Haley, Roots

Fan Chart

Have you created your own fan chart yet?  It is so easy and is a wonderful way to see nine generations at once!  Go to createfan.com to get started.  You will need a family search account or an lds.org account, but if you don't have one, createfan.com has a place you can click to set one up.  Once you sign in, they create your chart.  It's that easy!  On the site they have a couple of companies that will make your chart into a poster if you'd like.  I chose chartmasters and ordered a 26"x36" poster of my fan chart on bond paper, laminated.  At that size, the font is 10 points.  It costs $10 plus shipping.  With a bit of creativity, I have been able to print out photos and glue them to the chart. These posters make great gifts!
