For these and other features, you’ll need to upgrade to the $30 Deluxe Edition. Although if you’re looking for a program that will specifically help you make genograms, try GenoPro ($49, with a free 14-day trial, GenoPro focuses on tracking medical history and personalities within a family).Īlthough included in menus, many features-including Calendar Creator, Event Report, Family Picture Tree, Forms Center, Geolocations, and Publishing-are not included in the free version of Legacy Family Tree. There are also fields for cause of death and genetic information, which is important for some users researching hereditary diseases or afflictions. Legacy Family Tree has the upper hand on a lot of programs: it includes a radio button for deceased family members for which you don’t know a date of death (Living? Yes or no), and you can easily enter pseudonyms, prior names, and nicknames which will show up in your reports. I love that there’s no limit to the number of images you can add (it’s not just one headshot like in Family Tree Maker), and that all the information is at your fingertips, plus it’s offline, so you don’t need to worry about privacy.
Much like Family Tree Builder, this includes names, date, picture/movies, places of residence, nicknames, and pretty much anything else you can think of.
Once you’ve taken some aspirin or resized the windows, Legacy Family Tree is ready to show you its strength: all of the information you have about a certain member of your family can be entered in once place-in the Individual’s Information window. Fortunately, you can resize the windows and the text also resizes, which is a great relief. The main screen is sized for the vision impaired, but the popup windows where you enter data are tiny by default. Legacy Family Tree has a few UI issues, which make it seem like it’s harder to use than it actually is.
