TreeDraw allows you to import multiple charts and combine them into a single display. It takes a fair bit of editing to format the chart and get a good looking display but you can do a lot more with combined charts than with Legacy Charting.

Back in 2005/2006 I built a combination chart using TreeDraw starting with the Descendants of my Maternal Grandparents then imported the ancestors of each Grandparent to make a kind of hour glass chart. Worked on it for 6 months or more both to get the layout correct and to incorporate changes I got from the people in the chart during the project.

Had it printed on banner grade paper 36 in wide and close to 8 feet long for a family reunion that year. It was very well received by the attendees.

Perhaps there are Legacy users who are experienced in using the Legacy add-on called TreeDraw, who can tell you if that software can do what you want.

You could enter a fake child for the mother and father with a given name of “Joe & Mary”. Depending on the chart, you may have to play around with the appearance options to get something that works for you. After you’ve created the chart, be sure to eliminate the fake child.

How can I get a brother and sister of the same family as a starting point?
