YOUR LIVING FAMILY TREE
STARTER TEMPLATES
Gordon Burgett
This is a 27-page report (with eight additional downloads).
Introduction / Explanation
I’m Gordon Burgett
and I just published Your Living Family Tree, yet for
some who are eager to pursue the exciting vision it paints, the book may be
incomplete. It outlines in large the idea that from a unifying website the
reader or a family member (or even a stranger somehow brought into the fold)
can magnetically draw all the thoughts, memories, and creations of every member
now living, deceased, or to be born and from them create a near-eternal
topsy-turvy family tree.
That’s right!
What may be missing are some useful
templates to get the website up and running while your family genius creates
its own formats and rules to last for scores or hundreds of years.
So that’s what this digital report provides. The very
same formats that appear in the book, but here in both Word and .html, the
latter so they can be almost instantly implanted in a website and used without
a lot of typing and formatting.
This report’s purpose is to help you put a
good, new idea into motion right now. An extended hope is that these templates
will be replaced as soon as you can with better ones that include color, light,
motion, and all the other things a living digital tree deserves!
What you need first is somebody in your
clan who can post a website, plus of course a server that will host it (think
of renting space that sends out magic rays). It needs a name too, a
URL—something like www.SmithFamilyTree.com.
After that, it’s a set of wee steps that
person will know. You need something on your opening page (called the index in
web talk), which is why the first page suggests a sample Website Family
Directory. (The items in the first column in that Directory are links, or
linked files, that, when touched with the mouse, will
open up and provide the information promised.)
These templates help you gather early
information or show how that might look later somewhat reconfigured on the
linked page.
The best way to use the templates is to
read Your Living Family Tree first, then focus on
those pages you want on your website file. The templates enclosed will help you
make that happen quickly.
I hope the book and these templates help!
