Ancestris

Genealogy is an interesting subject, that focuses on the study of your family history and allows you to trace your lineage as far back as you desire, in order to obtain valuable information.

Ancestris is a powerful application that allows you to create your family tree, by adding information about individuals and specifying family ties. It offers numerous functions, but features a rather cluttered and outdated interface, that some users may find difficult to use, especially since a large part of the documentation is only available in French.

This application enables you to create records of individuals and input a large amount of personal information. Beside entering their name, you can add various life events, such as the date and place of birth, details about their education, a general description and much more.

You can also include sources, so that the added information ca be verified, various notes, as well as create a photo gallery for each person.

Once you have added more than one person, you can begin creating your family tree by determining the ties between various individuals.

At this point, the application allows you to view a dynamic chart, that is a graphical representation of family relationships, displayed in a tree structure.

Ancestris allows you to create an all-in-one chart, that includes relevant information, giving you an overall view of the family tree. You can choose which data is included, from date and place of birth, occupation, marriage and divorce information, to images and titles.

The program can also generate pie-charts that illustrate the number of various events that have taken place, by month, since the start of your genealogy study. You can view the amount of births, deaths, marriages and divorces that have taken place during a specific month of the year.

Ancestris is a complex and powerful tool, that you can use to create family trees and trace your ancestry as far back as you want. You can use it to centralize information, create detailed charts and lists, in order to get a better idea of your own and your family's evolution and origins.
