Controlling Gedcom Size

[Sharon Gillis]

I would like to make a Gedcom that only includes my first 6 generations. Can I control this? (without physically checking each person, that is!)

Yes. First you mark the 6 generations:

On the Mark page:
• "Mark"
• "6" Generations <-- here is where you are limiting the selection to 6 generations
• Who: "Ancestors..."
• of: "Sharon Gillis"
• check off "Mark Source Person"
• click the "Mark" button

When you export the GEDCOM, choose "Marked people (#) and their spouses"
