TNG Descendant Charts

Please note that you don't have to depend on these descriptions; you can quickly try out each of the chart types.

Graphical formats

"Standard" charts have a marvelous graphical format and show a fair amount of data for each person, but they generate so much whitespace that they tend to be wider than the screen (or a printed page) They tend to be hard to read and almost impossible to print if you generate more than three or four generations of data.
"Compact" charts have similar graphical layout, and are easier to read and print, but don't display any data other than each person's name.
Note that if you want to print a "Compact" chart with more than three or four generations of data, you should probably specify "Landscape" orientation when you print.
The "PDF chart" is kind of a cross between the standard and compact formats, generated as a PDF. On most computers, any web page can be printed as a PDF, but this PDF format handles page breaks for specific paper sizes, wheras PDF printouts of web pages just run the text through the page breaks

(The graphical charts' connecting lines sometimes disappear at certain zoom level. When they are missing, you can use you mouse scroll whell or hit control-plus or control-minus to change the zoom level.)

Text formats

"Text" charts follow a standard outline-style format that provides more (i.e. denser) data than the graphical charts do.
"Text+" charts are kind of a cross between the graphical and text formats. They can display much more data in less space than graphical charts or the "Text" chart. (That's good news and bad news). In particular, they requires much less horizontal scrolling, and can accommodate large charts in one printed page width (albeit sometimes with legal-sized paper in landscape mode). They are also much more flexible than the other formats, with several (perhaps too many) run-time options.
However,
- The process of printing a Text+ chart can be a bit daunting, and
- When you are looking at just a few generations, and when enough data is visible on the screen, the graphical charts tend to be easier to read.
"Register" charts are detailed descriptive reports. They contain almost all of the data that I have for each person, including free-form notes. But they aren't really 'charts' in the normal sense, and don't give this kind of overview of the family tree that the other charts give.
"Count" charts don't list descendants at all; they just show how many descendants a person has, broken out by generation.

Notes:

Leander Travis Hutcheson, Jr. (know as L.T. Jr., and later, just as L.T. ) was born in Pikeville, Tennessee in 1904. He was the last of the 10 children of Lee Hutcheson (L.T. Sr.) and Olive Irene Kuykendall. His mother died when L.T. was just 4. Two years later, his father married Alma Freiley, who was not at all motherly, and who was pretty much despised by all of L.T. 's siblings. I can't say exactly how L.T. got along with his mother, but I know that his sister Edith (my grandmother) carried bitterness about her stepmother to her (Edith's) death in 1996, and reported that her stepmother often threatened to send the three children who remained at home to an orphanage.
L.T. was widowed three times. His first marriage was to Inez Ricketts in 1925. They had one daughter, Betty Carolyn, who married Budd Alexander, and who was still alive (as far as I know) at age 91 in 2017. Inez died at age 28 in 1936.
L.T.'s second wife was Rosebud McBroom. During World War II, they had two sons, L.T. III (known as 'Travis'), and Larry. Rosebud died in 1947.
L.T. and his third wife, Betty Koon had four children in the 1950's: Mary Elizabeth, Martha Frances, James Noel (he married Maurene Henry and they had LT IV), and John Lee (who was 30 years younger than his oldest half-sister, Betty).
LT Jr. was a district manager for Hoover Vacuum Company. He lived in Chattanooga, TN and Birmingham, Alabama.
After his third marriage, L.T. didn't maintain much contact with his siblings, who, were, for the most part, very close. Clarence Richmond, Jr. (L.T.'s nephew) is close to Betty Alexander's age, and did know Betty, but he met several of L.T.'s younger children for the first time at L.T.'s funeral in 1999. Clarence shared the family tree with his cousins at that time, and reported that several were quite unaware that they had so many close relatives.
- Robin Richmond (Clarence's son), leaning heavily on notes written by James Murphy (husband of L.T. Jr's niece Elizabeth Swallows), and transcribed and uploaded by James' daughter-in-law Alice Holliman Murphy.
