Gramps Genealogy Software - create a new tree part 1

Glad to see someone doing videos on Gramps

This tutorial is meant for people who have already done some work in this field. I wish someone could just give us a completely beginner focused tutorial using this program. Adding yourself and a sibling for starters.

Dear Richard, just a note of thanks for posting this. I like your methodology and starting with repositories, sources and citations and structuring places properly. If you just jump in and create people you end up with a mess so seeing the structure properly helps tremendously. I also like your method of a mini website on your mobile device. Great idea. Again, thanks for the effort, it is really appreciated.

Learning how to use the clipboard makes it all worthwhile.

Do we have to begin with repository and all that ? I've not used Gramps before and at the moment just need to know how to begin a tree - how to start adding people ??

I would really like to include the birthplaces and deathplaces on my printed family tree. I know it would make a larger graph but I have access to plotter. Also, my family tree goes back 19 generations (to the early 1400's) but it looks like Gramps will only allow 15 generations in a printed report. Any help would appreciated; if Gramps won't allow this do you know of a different program that might??? Thanks, I really appreciate your videos and help.
