START A NEW GENEALOGY


Creating a genealogy is, starting with one individual, maybe even you, investigate your family history through all your ancestors. You will create very quickly a few hundred of them. It is convenient, right from the beginning, to adopt an equal method to write recurrent words, like first names (1st letter capitalized or not), professions (driver, conductor,...), the witnesses (prefer uncle of husband instead of uncle of x, uncle of y,...) to avoid useless long dropdown lists.



In this chapter, you will learn how to Create a first individual and then, Add a spouse.

These two individuals will allow you to Create a family and grow it - cf.Adding children -.

Last but not least, since we all came from somewhere, how to Add ancestors.


A bit of advise, once you explore a document, do it exhaustively, Ancestris allows it, always maintaining compliance with the Gedcom standard.
