A personal, meaningful and unique gift for the person who has everything. I created this printable family tree – every inch of it – from the background (a water color painting) to the family tree template (using Microsoft Publisher), and am sharing it for your personal use.

Blank printable family tree ($15) You may purchase my template (sample above), print it, and fill in the information yourself, by hand, (or electronically, if you’re savvy enough to figure out how to do that, because the pdf I provide is not editable).

Filled in family tree ($40) You provide me with as much information as you have (names, birth and death dates) for your ancestors, and I will fill in the template, creating a printable family tree (like the one pictured below). You will receive a PDF that you can print as many times as you like.

Add-ons:

+ $15 if you need the template adapted in any way (ex: a 3-generation tree, instead of 4)

+ $25 for one hour of research to help fill out your family tree. Using Ancestry.com, I can find or confirm dates and names to help fill out your tree, if you have at least one generation worth of information to give me. If I am unable to find anything substantive, I will refund 50% of this fee, retaining 50% for my time and trouble.

Frequently Asked Questions:

How large is the template/printable? 8″ x 10″, so it will print on an 8.5″ x 11″ piece of paper or card stock and easily fit any standard 8″ x 10″ frame. Note: Some clients have had their tree printed at larger sizes (most office supply stores provide these kinds of services) and can provide you with a high resolution jpeg if that’s what you need, instead of a PDF.

How do I order and pay? Use the order form (below) to get started. I accept PayPal or a personal check, but if you pay by check I will wait until the check clears before I begin work on your project.

How long does it take to get my tree? If you’re ordering just the printable blank template, you will receive an email with the PDF within 24 hours of payment. If you’re ordering a completed tree and providing the information yourself, please allow 2-3 days, once your payment is received. If your project needs research, please allow up to one week, once your payment is received (it won’t always take that long, but my availability for research will vary, based on the time of year and number of orders already in the queue). If you’re ordering an original water color painting, plan on at least one week (maybe longer, depending on the number of orders already in the queue).

Can you create other things like this? I’d be glad to try! Scroll down and use the contact form to tell me more about what you’re wanting.

You’re awfully trusting. What’s to keep me from buying your blank template, then sharing copies with all my friends? Nothing, except the  knowledge that there’s a special place in hell for people who steal from a single mother of two boys just trying to make ends meet <grin>.
