I don't see a way to create Direct Line Ahnentafels that start with
the numbers you want. I'd suggest creating a series of them all
starting with your great grandson and sending them to a word
processor. Then open them in the word processor, copy the part you
want for the subsequent reports, and paste them on the end of the
first one, each time cutting off one more generation. Or, if you don't
mind separate reports, just keep them separate, and delete the
beginning of each one after the first, up to the point you want to
keep.
