Where Do I Find Family Tree Templates with Siblings?

Where Do I Place Siblings on A Family Tree?
If you want to add several siblings to your family tree, you first need to find enough information about them. This way, you'll easily tell whether they're your siblings and the proper birth order. The standard family tree starts with the child at the bottom, followed by parents, grandparents, and so forth. So, if you want to add a sibling, they must be at the lowest family tree level beside the child. Luckily, all family tree templates at Record Click are spacious and indicated to guide you on where to add names for every family member, including the siblings.
How To Add Siblings to a Family Tree
Adding a sibling to a family tree is crucial as it shows the family that the genealogy research is not based on one child but rather on the entire family. Besides, every sibling wants to feature on the tree to help them relate with other relatives shown across generations.
Since siblings are connected through the parents, you need to establish a section for each through the common parent. In other words, one of the sibling's parents must be already on the family tree for you to add them. So, it would be best to start adding the parents before adding siblings.
Sometimes it gets tricky when you have all the details of a sibling, but you need more information for the parent through which you can add the sibling. In this case, you must add the parent but label them any way you want, like "unknown," and now add your sibling. Sometimes it's worth using different markings to show half-siblings. Still, if it's not an issue, you can leave it uniform to avoid the sibling feeling outcast and inadequate on the family tree.
Types of Family Tree Templates with Siblings
The number of family tree templates is endless, especially those indicating siblings. It's up to you to decide the format, size, design, and scope of your family tree template. Below is a quick review of different designs you can download for free and use in your genealogy research.
1. The Family Tree with Siblings
This is your typical family tree dominated by a massive tree and generations following up as branches. The tree decoration on these templates makes them the best option to create a visual appeal and a statement through your genealogy. Besides, it makes the best option for a wall poster or a kids' family tree worksheet. The family tree template has every level done for you, including the sibling section. All you need is to check whether it's right up your alley and perhaps request a few tweaks to accommodate every family member. Alternatively, you can edit the family tree and add the necessary spaces or generations.
2. The Pedigree Charts
Unlike family tree templates, a pedigree chart may lack the giant tree decorations mainly due to their complexity and scope. A pedigree chart will go overboard on generations and may include additional information for every individual. While a pedigree chart may also have tree-like decorative art, it's so vast that the information may overlap the tree artwork on the background. Such worksheets put detailing every piece of information about your family ahead of just the visual appeal and decoration.
Include Siblings on Your Family Tree
You'll find a section for siblings in whatever family tree template you use at Record Click. If your preferred family tree template lacks the siblings' section, you can edit and add them, but a member of a sibling originates from a common parent. All templates have the siblings' area at the bottom beside the index child where the tree starts branching.
