Upgrade to Family Historian Version 4

Upgrade to Family Historian Version 4

Ref: FH4U
An upgrade CD to convert Family Historian version 3 (and above) into Family Historian v4

All upgrading and installation of existing data is done during the install process.

New Features of Version 4
  • The entire program has been given a makeover, and a new, more attractive look.
  • Family Historian now has an all-new main window, with views for spouses & children, parents & siblings, ancestors and descendants. Adding relatives, and moving around your family tree, is completely intuitive and easy. The program as a whole has been made easier to use than ever.
  • The main 'Property Box' (for data entry) has been completely reworked so that it too is now easier than ever to use. You can set the text size to suit your eyesight, resize the Property Box or 'dock' it to the side of the window. You can also customize it to suit your requirements.
  • Family Historian now has project management capability. You can have as many family tree projects as you wish, and Family Historian will automatically look after all your project files for you (including picture files and other multimedia). Each project is assigned its own folder on your hard disk.
  • Full multi-level undo/redo lets you make changes in confidence, knowing that if you make a mistake you can easily undo it.
  • Full support for same sex relationships has been added.
  • Support for multimedia, and especially pictures, has been significantly enhanced. Thumbnail views make browsing pictures easy. You can now not only have as many pictures as you like for Individuals, Families and Sources - you can also link pictures to events (e.g. pictures of weddings or christenings) and attributes (e.g. pictures of a person's residence or occupation). Adding pictures and multimedia is easier than ever, as is browsing all the pictures in your project - thanks to extensive filtering options, including keyword filtering, in the Multimedia Window. And there is an all-new multimedia report.
  • In addition to the numerous existing file formats, charts and reports can now be saved in PDF format.
  • Extensive power-user features have been added, giving power-users much greater scope to extend and customize the program than ever before. Ordinary users can also benefit through the ability to download program extensions written by power users, from Family Historian user websites - such as the Family Historian User Group website at www.fhug.org.uk.
  • There have been numerous enhancements to charts and diagrams.

4GB USB Memory Stick - Kingston DataTraveler

4GB USB Memory Stick - Kingston DataTraveler


This has got to be the best method of backing up your family history. It is so easy to use and the ample storage capacity means that you will be able to store all those valuable images of family, certificates and even those census returns you have been painstakingly downloading off the internet.

Remember floppy discs. Well this 4GB USB memory stick holds more data than 3000 floppies or almost as much as 6 CDs. However the real difference is the ease of use. Just plug it in and hey presto you have the convenience of a hard drive. Create directories and save files to it just like you do on your 'C' drive. Overwrite or delete in just the same way.

Great for just transferring data between computers (or cousins).

TIP. If you use a laptop as well as a desktop PC then we recommend keeping your main file and images on this USB drive so that it is available for use on either computer. Use your computers to hold back ups after each session working on your family history.

Just 1GB will hold 250 scans at 4mb. A typical family tree without any photographs embedded is usually less than 1mb.

5 years warranty. See below for 2GB and 8GB memory sticks

Customer Reviews/Comments

2 February 2007
- just a quick email to let you know how impressed I am with Family Historian 3.1 - it does everything! Great text reports, fully customisable charts and ready-made webpages - and what's more, it's British!
Gareth W - Hull

I thought it a very nice, intuitive program to use considering it was the first time I'd tried to put a family tree together... (H.H., Tavistock, Devon)

The printing of the manual was a good idea as it is difficult to read such manuals on the screen, and printing them out on home computers is not easy. (D.M., Reading, Berkshire)

Magazine Reviews

Your Family Tree on version 3: "Is it worth upgrading to version 3? Our verdict is definitely ... But it for ... Organising data, superb picture handling and best set charts around" (May 2006).

Computer Shopper reviewed 7 top genealogy programs and gave Family Historian 5 starts and their Best Buy Award (Aug 2004; award given to version 2).

Family Historian also came out top when Computer Active reviewed 6 genealogy programs - they gave it 5 stars ("a dream to use") and their Buy It! Award (June 2003; award given to version 2).
