The following press release was received from my friend, Dallan Quass. I recommend anything that Dallan does… Over the years he has produced some of the finest technical genealogy aids and tools available.
16 Feb 2018
RootsFinder.com is a free, online family tree that makes researching family history much easier. Unlike other online trees, which only provide hints to their own content, RootsFinder provides hints and search suggestions to websites such as:
• FamilySearch
• FindMyPast
• AmericanAncestors
• BillionGraves
• FindAGrave
• Ancestry
• MyHeritage
• and more
In addition, seamless sync with FamilySearch, integration with GenSmarts, evidence analysis, embedded research logs, and DNA tools (coming soon) add to RootsFinder’s powerful offering.
Along with these valuable tools, RootsFinder has also developed two Chrome Browser Extensions. The extensions make research and recording information faster and more accurate.
1. WebClipper – Copy records and source citations quickly and automatically into your family tree from major genealogy websites such as Ancestry, FamilySearch, MyHeritage, and more. It adds records to entire families at once.
2. ToDo Creator – Save search ideas for later by attaching action items to specific people in your family tree, adding them to research logs, and marking them complete when done.
RootsFinder also has tools that make it easy to share your genealogy with your family safely and securely:
• Invite others to your tree, but you control who edits
• Ancestor reports with stories and pictures can be turned into family history books
• Descendancy reports in the register format
• Videos & photo mosaics created from your media
• Fan charts and wall charts
• Pinterest-like media wall for scrolling through photos
Two plans are available: an ad-supported Free-Forever plan, and a $35/year Pro plan that removes ads and includes additional storage and advanced features. Everyone gets a 30-day Pro plan for free.
A small group of dedicated genealogists and software developers have been working on RootsFinder for the past three years. Our goal is to provide a free online family tree that is focused on the needs of the genealogy researcher. We think we finally have something worth talking about. – Dallan Quass
