Mobile Genealogy
You CAN Take It With You: Mobile Genealogy Judy Nimer Muhn, Lineage Journeys http://www.LineageJourneys.com [email protected] 248-736-7770 In the search of families, creating family trees, to get a fuller picture of the lifetimes of our ancestors, we want to go to any lengths to find and document the information that informs us about the lives of our family. How we can make it easier, faster and more efficient is what mobile genealogy tools are about! MOBILE RESEARCH TOOLS ARE: Family Trees: Have you created a family tree, transferred the information from pieces of paper and notes, with census data, birth-marriage-death records, and photographs in an online resource or family tree software? There are tools with mobile apps that will help you to look up your charts while you are working in the library, rather than lugging around all of your notebooks! Mobile apps – All of these noted (below) work on your cell phone or tablet – give you the flexibility to review, add, edit and collect data. Here are a few of the best: • FREE Family Trees can be created on FamilySearch.com – sharing with others that use the Family History Center/LDS resources and finding others researching your family too. http://familysearch.org • WikiTree – FREE also; create your tree, upload DNA information and share with others. https://www.wikitree.com/ Among the sites with various fees required: • Ancestry.com – By far the leader, with huge databases and more being uploaded daily, you can access it free at your local public library but you can’t create a tree there; the fee-based site can be paid for in six-month increments. -
