I'm experimenting with posting some random bits of my genealogy research here with the goal of eventually creating a linked family tree on Hive.

This individual was born around 1299. It can be pretty difficult to find information about individuals this far back unless they have some link to royalty. But any link to royalty, no matter how distant, often makes this much easier. Chances are the info is already online but the original sources are typically from genealogical related books commissioned/published in the 1800s.

According to Gramps, this individual is my first cousin twenty-three times removed which is another way of saying they are the first cousin of one of my 22nd great grandparents.

I use GenoPro to maintain my family tree but I use other programs to generate reports/web pages. Gramps is open source software for Windows, Linux and MacOS that I have been using to generate static HTML reports and is what the info you see below is based on. I also use its relationship calculator functionality. I've also been exploring GedSite, a program that takes a gedcom file and converts it into html, and The Next Generation of Genealogy Sitebuilding which is web based and requires a setup with a web server, php and mysql. Mostly I've been playing around with TNG but I'll get back to GedSite eventually.

The above chart is a "compact" descendant chart generated by TNG expanded out to five generations.
