Can you recommend a free program from base to track my family tree?
I have a lot of names for both sides my family, but no organization whatsoever. I know there is genealogy software out there, but I am looking for a simple and free version that allows me to enter the name and possibly even has a feature that creates the visual "tree", which often can be very useful in understanding the connections. I just learned that PBS has a free download for something called the region of America 1900 Family Tree Builder. Has anyone tried this? Any ideas on how it might compare to the Mormon FAP has been suggested?
Person Ancestral File, or PAF. Mormons give it to you for free. Go to http://www.familysearch.org/eng/default.asp and scroll down, looking to the right for "Download PAF". Also "Songs of Color Charts", just below the FAP, which seems to be exactly what I wanted. ================ ========= Added later: You can Google "comparisons Genealogy Software" if desired. FAP has been around for 20 years, has a considerable user community (several of the 10 in the home version of Y! A Genealogy swear by it), and there are forums devoted to its use in both GenForum and Ancesrty. You can walk into any LDS FHC and find people who use it. Roots Magic I'ma fan, myself, but it is $ 29. Mormons look like they are going out of business before, so it will be support for it for a long time. PBS whatever you can take off this week and maybe not. FAP work for you. Just understand and start entering your data. You will not find any tool (including Roots Magic) that makes everything you want exactly as you wish, unless you're willing to spend 3 years writing for himself. (Assuming that you can program in a 4GL language and have a trust fund, so you can spend the year or two would be considered writing.) You can get a "light" version of Legacy, last time I looked. Because they want you to buy the version complete, not as many features.
