I have been working on a similar project for my Zeta for the past 12 years, since I was active.
It takes a lot of patience and time. Lucky for me I am from a small chapter, and I was only the 182nd initiate, but I was still missing a lot of the info from the early years. Over the years I have slowly compiled 95% of the data. And hope to have 100% by our 25th anniversary in 2008.
For most of the time I just used an Excel spreadsheet to compile the core data, and I drew out the tree by hand. One of my fellow alumni brothers recently got hold of a family tree compiler program for his computer and he is transferring my data. I haven't seen the results yet though.
IN ZAX,
