Frequently asked questions

Is Family-Tree free to use?+

What is a family tree builder?+

A family tree builder is a tool that lets you record family members — their names, dates, relationships and photos — and visualise how they connect across generations. Family-Tree is an online family tree builder that works in your browser with no download required.

How is Family-Tree different from other family tree makers?+
