Genealogy Programme

#Post

Can anyone suggest a good genealogy computer programme, simple to use but with features for downloading gedcom files, creating ancestral charts etc, and which doesn't break the bank account?

While this isn't a computer programme as such, the charts are interactive & are a helpful way to record known details. I make sure to save them to my documents as I work on them. Good luck

There are lots out there and you need to find one that works for you. Many have free (or free with upgrade options like Legacy) and others offer free trials. Here's a not definitive list:

Ignore the reviews - what they find great you might find really annoying and vice versa!

Yes, I'd like the name too, please, as the link didn't work for me either.

Legacy is good. At present I am using Ancestral Quest which I really like. Both have free basic versions. Neither are expensive if you do chose to pay to access other features.

I have all my trees on ancestry and like having McKiev? (used to be known as Family Tree Maker) on my computer and I can sync between the two.
