Flowcharts and CPA/CPM

I am trying to get a bit clearer idea of the development of CPA/CPM and network techniques. Received wisdom seems to suggest they took shape in the 1950s during the Polaris nuclear submarine program. If PERT and CPM diagrams are essentially flowcharts with dates attached which came first; flowcharting or the Polaris networks. I cant seem to find any references of the history and development of flowcharting. Anyone have any ideas?

Many thanks
