Saturday Night Fun Genealogy Calendar

Saturday Night Genealogy Fun - Make a Calendar!
from Genea-Musings by Randy Seaver
Hi SNGF fans - it's Saturday Night, time for some major Genealogy Fun!!!

Your mission, should you decide to accept it, is to:

1) Open your genealogy software or family tree program of choice and make yourself the highlighted person.

2) Find out how to create a Calendar to show birthdays and/or anniversaries of yourself and all of your ancestors (or all relatives, or all persons - your choice!). The "Help" button is your friend here!!! It can be done in all of the current software programs.



3) Create your calendar. Pretty it up if you want. Save it. Can you show us a page from your calendar - say January 2010? This is from Ancestral Quest version 12


4) Which of your ancestors (or relatives, or descendants - your choice!), if any, were born on 30 January?


January 30
20th birthday for Kevin Campbell
176th birthday for Sara Hamer
80th Anniversary for Henry and Bertha Bengston

This is the landscape view page 1, it has more entries on page two. My mom and dads anniversary on January 14 ended up at the bottom of the page. Portrait view got all on one page but only used initials for given names.

Color code
Blue male birthday
Pink female birthday
Green anniversary
