When I was writing my Great Grandmother's Ancestor snapshot using your template and this method, I had an 'aha' moment. I was looking at the graphic in the top right of the template..."my story". If it's her story, I should write it in her voice. So I wrote the whole thing in first person, and it came out wonderfully...a sort of potted autobiography.
This is the best suggestion for writing a ancestors biography/ story I have seen. Thank You. It may not be a final product, but it is the best way to start. Have you seen Carly Morgan's Family Tree Notebooks?

Sounds like a great approach!

Glad you enjoyed it! No, I've not seen those notebooks. Are they helping you tell your ancestors stories?
