Ahnentafel Chart – A different pedigree approach 

Presented by Scott Ludwig 

An ahnentafel chart is the German version of a pedigree chart. It is a different approach than what we are used to. The Ahnentafel Chart focuses on one individual and their direct ancestors. 

This presentation will cover how the process works and how I came to use it for my research. I  will discuss the pros and cons of the ahnentafel chart and pedigree collapse.  

About the Speaker 

Scott Ludwig grew up in Rugby, North Dakota. Rugby is the county seat of Pierce County in north-central North Dakota and was settled by Germans from Russia. His father’s family came from the Kutschurgan colonies of Mannheim, Selz, Strassburg, and Volhynia. His mother’s family came from the Kutschurgan colonies of Mannheim, Selz, Strassburg, and Galicia. Scott started his ancestral research in the summer of 2017 after encouragement from his dad and aunt. His research became more full-time upon retirement.
