Independant "Stand alone" family tree programme

[BW252]

Hi

I am coming to the end of my subscription to an internet based family tree.    Due to the annual cost and also nearing the end of my research (as far as I can go) I do not wish to carry on with this subscription.   However if I do not renew I lose my tree!

I am looking for a "stand alone" family tree programme not linked to any internet subscription that I can hopefully transfer to and keep updating at my leisure.    I have FTM but am not too happy with it.    Looking for a compatible and similar programme to MH

Hi Harry

There are several tree programmes in the market place

you should find useful discussions on the pros and cons of each here

At the end of the day, the choice will be yours but I wiould suggest trying to find demo versions online and give them a go to get the feel of how the data is presented and the types of trees and reports the software can produce.

Are you sure?

I used to have a subscription to Ancestry, but can't afford it any more!
I can still see, and edit, my trees - and I can even create new trees!
