I have been doing a study of all the descendants I have been able to find of one ancestral couple. In about a year and a half I have gathered some 6000+ descendants. I am thinking it would be interesting to see, visually, how they disbursed from the central point that is the home of the original couple, i.e. Montreal.
What I am looking to do is two-fold. First I need to generate some sort of report which will give me location breakdowns by generation. Then I am looking for a way to map them which will allow me to color code the generations. I have, thus far, 13 generations from that base-line couple. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I know that Legacy has the capacity to give me the information I need, I just need to figure out the semantics. The mapping is another thing altogether, and I realize that it is partially off-topic. I know that Legacy will show me locations on a map, but can I save those maps, or build on them, or will I need to go to an outside program? Google Maps might have the capabilities I am looking for, but it is not necessarily the most user friendly interface.
