Verified purchaseSimple, visual, and actually works for real genealogy
I'm the family historian for our extended family and have tried several free family tree templates over the years. Most are either too simple (just 3-4 generations) or broken when opened in Google Sheets. This one actually works. I used FamilyTree-6Gen and filled it in Google Sheets -- the layout rendered perfectly. The Prepared By and Date fields at the top give it a proper research document feel. What really impressed me was that the 7Gen sheet is included too -- knowing I can expand to 64 ancestor positions when ready makes this feel like a long-term tool rather than a one-off chart.

Verified purchaseSolid genealogy tool, minor learning curve
Bought this for a family history project my mom and I are working on together. The 6-generation layout is exactly right for what we know so far. Took me about 20 minutes to understand how the numbering works across the grid, but once I got it, filling in names was quick. The photo insertion instructions were spot-on -- I added 8 ancestor photos in about 10 minutes using Insert > Image in Cell. One suggestion: it would be helpful if there were a few more example entries already filled in. But for $3.9, having both 6Gen and 7Gen layouts ready to go is excellent value.

Verified purchaseExactly what I needed for deep ancestry work
I've been researching my family history for 4 years and was using a messy combination of notebooks and sticky notes. This template organized everything. I started with the FamilyTree-6Gen sheet and filled in 5 solid generations with names and dates. The photo feature is a game-changer -- I scanned old family portraits and inserted them directly into cells at my ancestors' positions. My grandmother cried when I showed her the completed 6-generation tree with photos. Having the FamilyTree-7Gen sheet ready means I can keep expanding as I find more records.
