how do I chang the start point for my next row?

[IvanT]

I am trying to graph out numbers in a chronological order, when one number
ends the next one begins. Like how old I was when my daughter was born, her
time line will begin at the age I was when she was born.

Are you doing this with a bar chart of some kind?

You'll probably also need to look at this as well to get the scaling
correct:
