Four-Generation Family Tree

Four-generation family tree

A four-generation family tree follows one family line from great-grandparents to a child in the newest generation. It is useful when a three-generation view leaves out an important ancestral connection. Start with the oldest documented couple and add each subsequent parent pair below. Include close siblings when they help explain the branch, but avoid expanding every collateral family at once. The clear vertical structure makes generational distance easy to understand. Use it for a family-history project, a reunion display, or a research summary, then create a separate continuation chart for branches that need more room. Record sources separately so the visual remains focused on relationships.
