About Lineage Keeper
Family history research spreads across census pages, certificates, archive references, DNA sites and notes scribbled in the margins. Lineage Keeper brings it all into one place that stays on your own computer.
Record everyone in your tree with their dates, places, occupations and life events. Link parents, spouses and children, cite the source for every fact, and keep a research log of the records you still need to find.
Track your DNA matches until you can place them, work out exactly how any two people are related, and print family group sheets and pedigree reports for relatives.
No subscription to keep paying, no account, and your tree never leaves your device.
What's Inside
- People & Life Events — birth, death, marriage, occupation, tags, notes and a photo for every person, plus a timeline of life events such as baptisms, census entries and military service.
- Family Links — parents, spouses (married, divorced, widowed or partner) and children, with a new child linked to its parent in one step.
- Family Tree View — an ancestors (pedigree) chart or a descendants chart from anyone in the tree, four generations or more.
- Sources & Citations — record each source with its archive, type, full citation and link, and attach it to the people it proves.
- Research Log — to-do, in-progress and done tasks with priorities, plus one-click templates for census, certificates, wills, military records, newspapers and more.
- DNA Match Tracker — testing company, shared cM and predicted relationship, linked to the person once you identify them.
- Relationship Calculator — finds the common ancestor and names the relationship, from siblings and aunts to third cousins twice removed.
- Reports — family group sheets, an Ahnentafel ancestor list and tree statistics (surnames, places, average lifespan), ready to print.
- Dashboard — upcoming birthdays and anniversaries, open research tasks, and the people whose records are missing key facts.
- Several Trees, Backups & GEDCOM — keep separate trees, back up and restore everything as JSON, and export a GEDCOM file for other genealogy software.
