FamilySearch Tree

Build your family tree with FamilySearch Tree, the world's largest online genealogy platform. Discover your ancestors, document family memories, and connect with relatives across the globe—all from your phone.

Start your genealogy journey by adding family members directly through the app. As you build your tree, the platform automatically searches billions of historical records—birth certificates, death records, and more—to help you uncover relatives you never knew existed. Watch as FamilySearch connects the dots between your family and the vast, crowd-sourced community tree, revealing ancestors and descendants you can explore at your own pace.

Bring your family history to life by preserving what matters most. Add photos, written stories, and audio recordings to relatives in your tree. Explore interactive maps showing where your ancestors lived and the key events that shaped their lives. Every detail you contribute helps create a richer picture of your family's heritage and potentially helps other researchers discover their own connections.

Collaboration makes genealogy more rewarding. Connect with other family members researching the same lines, share information and sources, and work together to verify facts and build an accurate family tree. Use in-app messaging to communicate directly with other FamilySearch users—you might discover a distant cousin who's visited the same graves or shared the same questions about your ancestors. By contributing your knowledge, you help others in their search and contribute to the larger family tree for all mankind.

Genealogy becomes effortless with tools designed for every step. Find your ancestors by name or browse through the community tree to discover new relatives. Add life details, documents, and sources to confirm information. Update records easily so everyone working on your family tree has access to accurate, current information. See which ancestors have already been found in historical records and get suggestions for what to explore next.
