Family Tree

Hello Oliver. My name is Anthony Boermans, one of the dutchies.
For the moment i am restyling our familytree. I sended a message to Gabrielle with my request and all the missing informations.I became your internetadress from Frank Boermans, Heemstede.
I am restyling the tree in EXEL. Perhaps there is another professional Familytree computerprogram, I don't know. For the internet it would be more interesting as for the preparation of a "wall-document". One thing i can say for sure at the moment.
The tree is getting that large that we can use it as wallpaper.
Perhaps it would be nice to get in touch.
Kind regards from Venlo, Anthony (Toon)

Hi Toon, pleased to 'meet' you!

Have you seen the other site?:

http://boermans.infogami.com

I have transcribed the contents of the printed trees onto it. The plan is to add links from it to a site like this one to add further information and images for each individual listed.

You can read further notes about the process here:

Initially I considered using specialised family tree software, but I think this may limit who would have access to the information to help keep it up to date in the future. This is the idea behind using websites such as this one that any number of people can contribute to correcting and updating the family tree information.

I have some familiarity with Excel - but I have only done very simple things with it at work. I'm interested to learn how you are using it.

Cheers
Oliver Boermans (Ollie)
