Build your family tree

Name one grandparent who has died, and roughly when and where they were born. We search public records and build your family's first tree in a few minutes — and show how sure we are of each link. It's free.

• The older the person, the more records there are to find — a grandparent or great-grandparent works best.
• Add one or two more relatives who have died if you know them; it helps us tell the right family from a namesake.
• Then you claim the tree as your family's own private site, and invite your relatives.

Already have a tree on Ancestry, MyHeritage or FamilySearch? Bring the file and we'll check it.
