Family trees don't have symbols.\n\nDo an image search on "family tree."\n\nAlso, family trees are called "pedigree chart."\n\nIt is best to put your genealogical information into a computer program.  They can print out a family tree and other kinds of forms.  Personal Ancestral File is a good one, and it's free!\n\nCheck your local library or online for help knowing how to do research.  You can also ask at the public library to learn how to contact your local genealogical society; they will be glad to help you.

WOW!!! That's great! Have you thought maybe possibly making a family history book with them in it. I typed one down, added my special notes and even added pictures in mine. I gave it to my brothers and sisters and my mom and dad for Christmas. My dad cried while he was looking at it. Just an ideal that means a lot more than something bought. Best of luck!

I'd say take symbolism to heart.  Fire---red things, symbol of fire....air---feathers, picture of clouds, that kind of thing....  try growing your own herbs, use things around the house... candle wise, if you have particular candles for particular goals, save them with a note saying what you used them for and next time you are going to use candles use ones that are saved that are close to what you used before, or if you are doing the same thing....  make your own maybe?  that's a cool thing to learn.

I cannot tell you the origins of the symbol, but if you want to make it on your computer, do the following :\n\nGo to: Start, Programs, Accessories, System Tools, Character Map. You should find it there (scroll down a bit) where you can copy and paste.\n\nLike so :  ∞

The article below tells quite a few symbols. It's pretty well-written. You have to go down a few paragraphs before it starts listing the symbolism in more detail.

Spend as much time as possible with your family and add to your store of good memories.\nWhen the tree is coming down, ask your mom if you can have a few special ornaments to put on your own tree next year.  Begin to build your own 'family tradition ornament collection'.\nAlso, give each family member an engraved ornament this year with a special message just for them from you.

Be original!  Find a name that has nothing to do with either family so there are no hurt feelings.  Good Luck

Genealogy.com would be a good place to start. If you have a local historical/genealogical society, check with them.
