Michael,

Here is the .doc form. I didn't think about changing it for you. You "save

I haven't followed this thread carefully but I see that I do not have
Tink's daughters listed. I do want to carry the online chart completely to
four generations. Sandy, can you give me the basic particulars for them?

I think I can upload the docx you sent to my google doc account and it
will convert it for me.

Thanks,
Michael
