This is the base of the tree, and includes you, your parents, and your siblings. The shape your diagram will take is your choice. If you want it to branch out vertically and get bushier at the top, like a tree, start at the bottom of a large sheet of paper. You may also start on the left side of a sheet of paper so that your diagram will be easy to read from left to right. No matter what shape you want your diagram to take, fill in the following information to get started:  Write down your name. Draw a line from your name to the name of your mother. Draw another line from your name to the name of your father. Draw a horizontal line connecting your mother and father. If you have siblings, draw lines from your mother and father to their names. If your siblings have spouses, write them in and connect them with lines. If your siblings have children, write them in and connect them with lines. Now it's time to fill in the second generation - your parents' generation. Connect each married couple with a horizontal line, and draw lines from parents to children.  Write your maternal grandparents' names above your mother's name. Write your paternal grandparents' names above your father's name. Connect your maternal grandparents' names to your mother's siblings. Connect your paternal grandparents' names to your father's siblings. Add the names of your aunts' and uncles' spouses. Add the names of your aunts' and uncles' children, your cousins. If you have a big family, your diagram may already be threatening to go over the edge of the page. Some people stop here, with both sets of grandparents serving as the crown of their family tree diagram. If you want to keep going, it's time to include your grandparents' generation. Remember to connect married couples with horizontal lines, and to draw lines from parents to their children.  Add the names of your maternal grandmother's mother and father and your maternal grandfather's mother and father. These are your great grandparents. Add the names of your paternal grandmother's mother and father and your paternal grandfather's mother and father. These are your great grandparents. Add the names of your maternal grandparents' siblings - your great aunts and uncles. Add the names of your paternal grandparents' siblings - your great aunts and uncles. Fill in the names of your great aunts' and uncles' spouses and children. If you're enjoying the experience of researching your family history, keep tracing it back as far as you can. There's no limit to the potential size of your diagram, especially if it's digital!
