A pedigree chart is a diagram that represents the ancestry or lineage of a person, family, or group across multiple generations, widely used in genetics, genealogy, and family history research. Individuals are shown with symbols (circles for females and squares for males) connected by lines to indicate relationships such as marriages or parent-child links. These charts are especially valuable for tracking the inheritance of traits or genetic conditions, helping researchers and families identify patterns of hereditary characteristics or diseases.

How to Create a Pedigree Chart with Creately

Open a Pedigree Chart Template

Launch Creately, and choose a pre-designed template to get started quickly, or start with a blank canvas for complete creative freedom. Creately’s pedigree chart maker offers customizable templates that make the process easier, especially if you’re new to creating pedigree charts.

Add the Proband and Family Members

Place the proband (the starting person) at the center or bottom of your chart. Then drag and drop shapes to add parents, siblings, children, and continue branching out into multiple generations.

Define Relationships

Use Creately’s line and shape options to represent family links. Solid lines can show biological connections, dashed lines for marriages, and color-coded shapes make it easy to differentiate generations.

Add Information and Customize

Fill in key details like names, birth and death dates, or health notes directly inside each shape. Use the Notes Panel or sticky notes for extra context, and customize fonts, colors, and layouts to match your style.

Review, Collaborate & Share

Invite others to edit or comment in real-time, making it easy to update the chart together. Once finalized, export it as PNG, PDF, or SVG—or share your Creately workspace link for ongoing collaboration.
