We have only traced the Dreier family back to Johann Jochim Friedrich Dreier who was born around 1775 in Mamerow, Germany.

His daughter married Christoph Knaack and their daughter, Fredericka married August Heiden. They came to America in 1873.
  1. Johann Dreier + Christina Martz
    1. Sophia Dreier + Christoph Knaack
      1. Fredericka Knaack + August Heiden
        1. Her Children
          1. Her Grandchildren

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.
