Genealogy vs. Descendancy

First things first, are you interested in creating a Genealogy or Descendancy chart?

Not sure? 

Genealogy charts feature an individual, group of individuals (such as a family of children) or couple at the center, and then show that center individual(s)' direct ancestry—parents, grandparents, great-grandparents, etc. A genealogy chart is an ideal gift for ANYONE!

Descendancy charts most commonly feature a couple (although can also show an individual) and their direct descendants—children (and spouses if desired), grandchildren, great-grandchildren, etc. A descendancy chart is an ideal gift for a grandparent or great-grandparent!
