How to Create Your Family Tree (Step by Step)

Creating your family tree is simple and takes only a few minutes. Follow the steps below to build and download your family tree with ease.

Step 1: Start with Yourself

Begin by thinking of yourself as the center of your family tree. The tree automatically starts from the root, allowing you to build upward and downward as you add relatives.

Step 2: Add a Family Member

Enter the full name of a family member in the input field. Choose the correct relationship, such as father, mother, spouse, or child. This ensures each person is placed correctly within the family structure.

Step 3: Select Where to Place Them

Use the “Add under” option to choose where this person belongs in the tree. You can attach parents, children, or other relatives under the correct family member to maintain an accurate hierarchy.

Step 4: Build Generation by Generation

Continue adding family members one by one. As you do, the family tree grows automatically, allowing you to clearly see relationships across multiple generations in a visual format.

Step 5: Review Your Family Tree

Take a moment to review your tree layout. Make sure names and relationships are correct. The clean visual design helps you easily understand how everyone is connected.

Step 6: Download Your Family Tree

Once your family tree is complete, you can download it as an image (PNG) or as a PDF file. This makes it easy to save, print, or share with relatives.
