Hi, Is there a quick and easy way to print a list of my relatives on here, without using 300 sheets of paper please? Dea x

Dea, I honestly don't think you can print a list of relatives off your GR tree. I have Family Tree Maker and I find that great for printing off lists of relatives in various orders

Thanks Teresa, I have one off FTM but wanted to print one off from here so I could see if I had all my people on both. I can do it in a 'long-winded' fashion but hoped there would be a simpler way. Thanks anyway, Dea x

I dont quite understand - without using 300 sheets of paper? Have you got an enormous tree then? I have about 350 names on my GR tree and I regularly print off a list. I think it took 7 pages last time I did it. Its one name per line, say 40 lines to a page... Is this what you mean or have I got the wrong end of the stick (again!) Olde Crone

O.K. OC, I DID exaggerate, excag..... ???? - 'stretch the truth a little' - NOT quite 300 pages but I'm sure you know what I meant. Anmyway - I have done it now - the long-winded way - 16 pages (but worth every one!!) Dea x

Its a funny old thing, but I actually find this one of the most useful features of this site. I nurse my list and carry it around with me, highlighting direct rellies, scribbling little notes about who I still have to find/who needs a cert and so on. When it gets finally so grubby and tatty I cant read it anymore, I print off another (updated) one! OC

If you only want the names, dates and locations, then open a word document, then click on, My Relations, then copy and paste them to the word document, then you can print them out from their, If you choose to, match destination, and text only format you can get over 100 people per page, 200 if you copy and paste them side by side.
