Making a new tree file from part of another tree.

[Jon Reiskind]

How can I cut off a branch from a big tree and make a new stand-alone family file?

Thanks for any help you can give me,

Jon

How can I cut off a branch from a big tree and make a new stand-alone family file?

[1] mark all the people you want to include in the new file (click "Mark" in sidebar, make selection, e.g. Descendants of Pocahontas, or Ancestors of Princess Madeleine of Sweden, click "Mark")
[2] Export a Reunion file including Marked people only. (go to File -> Export -> Reunion Family File; click "Marked people (###) and their spouses" under "People", click "Export".)
