Why Build Your Family Tree
Preserve Family History
Document your family's story for future generations. Record names, dates, and relationships before they are forgotten. Create a lasting legacy of your ancestry.
Family Reunions
Create a visual aid for family gatherings. Help relatives understand how everyone is connected, especially for large extended families where relationships can be confusing.
Teach Children
Help kids understand their roots and family connections. A visual family tree makes it easier for children to learn about grandparents, cousins, and extended family members.
Genealogy Research
Organize your ancestry research visually. As you discover new relatives through records and DNA tests, add them to your tree to see how they connect to your family.
Medical History
Track health patterns across generations. Understanding which conditions run in your family can help with medical decisions and preventive care for you and your children.
Share With Family
Export and share your tree with relatives. Collaborate on building a complete family history by sharing your work and letting others add their branches and knowledge.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I start building my family tree?
Start by clicking "Add Member" and adding yourself as the root person (select "No Relation"). Then continue adding family members like parents, siblings, spouse, and children, selecting their relationship to existing members each time.
Can I save my family tree?
Yes! Click the "Export" button to download your family tree as a JSON file. This file contains all your family data and can be imported later using the "Import" button. We recommend exporting regularly to backup your work.
What information can I add for each family member?
For each family member, you can add their full name, birth year, death year (if applicable), gender, relationship to other members, and additional notes. Notes are great for recording birthplace, occupation, or interesting facts.
How many generations can I add?
There is no strict limit on the number of generations or family members. You can add as many ancestors and descendants as you know. The visual tree will automatically organize members by their relationships.
Can I share my family tree with relatives?
Yes! Export your tree as a JSON file and share it with family members via email or cloud storage. They can import it into this same tool to view or continue building. This makes collaborative family tree building easy.
Is my family data private?
Yes, all data stays in your browser. Nothing is uploaded to any server. Your family information is completely private. When you export, the file is saved directly to your device.
