Our history of the Rambow Family starts with Nicolaus Rambow who was born in 1754 in Joerdenstorf, Germany. His grandson, Heinrich Rambow, Jr. came to America in 1874. Two of his daughters, Mary and Fredareka married Heiden brothers, William Carl and Herman respectively.

Shown below is a graphical version of a family tree created in PhotoShop. These can be modified and personalized to fit any branch of the family or any individual member of the family.

It can help to see a physical representation of facts and other data involved in a family history. This partially explains the use of "family trees" with relatives scattered among the branches which helps to bring order to things.

The RootsMagic software that I use has many, many options for displaying the information in its database. I have included a few examples and hope to add more in the future. If you are interesting in getting a chart or display for your particular branch of a family, I would be glad to help you.
