What it does

Genealogy, geographically.

Most family tree tools show you a chart. Family Mapper shows you a journey.

🗺️
Life events on a map
Births, residences, migrations, deaths, and more — placed exactly where they happened, not just listed in a record.
📂
GEDCOM import & export
Bring in trees from Ancestry, FamilySearch, or any standard GEDCOM file. Export back out anytime — your data isn't locked in.
🌳
Family lines, color-coded
See at a glance which branch of the family each person and event belongs to, right on the map.
🔍
Duplicate detection
Imported the same person from two different files? Family Mapper finds the overlap and merges them cleanly — events, relationships, and all.
📚
Real sourcing, not just notes
Link sources and research log entries directly to the specific life events they document — one source can back up several events, and vice versa.
⏱️
Timeline playback
Animate your family's history forward through time and watch events appear as they happened.
Getting started

Three steps to your family,
on the map.

1

Import your GEDCOM file

Already have a tree from Ancestry, FamilySearch, or another tool? Bring it in as-is — names, dates, places, relationships, all of it.

2

Watch it appear on the map

Every life event gets geocoded and placed where it happened. Family lines get their own color. Migration paths connect the dots.

3

Research, source, and refine

Log your research, attach real citations to specific events, merge duplicates, and fill in the gaps — right where you found them.
