Select the main Family Tree text box by clicking on the border.

Using the Organization Chart toolbar, click on the drop-down arrow beside the Insert Shape option. Choose Subordinate. Repeat this for each sibling in the family. Add the names of your siblings in these text boxes.

Note - If you have no siblings, perhaps you might want to add a pet's name to the family tree.
