Family Tree Maker 2005 replaces version 11 which is one of the most popular programs used by genealogists
all over the world. Its reporting capabilities are probably the best available in any family tree program.
Its on-screen help is excellent and although it takes time to learn how to use it, it is a very professional
program. If you are still using version 10 or earlier, now is an excellent time to buy this new version and upgrade.
Although it is year since Family Family Tree Maker 2005 was published it is still an advanced program compared
to many on the market therefore we can still recommend this software for anyone working with a limited budget
especialy as the complete program may be purchased complete with a family history book for as little as £14.75.
There is also a guide book and two DVDs to help you learn about the program as well as a small booklet only
available from My History;'Where to Record It; In Family Tree Maker 2005' worth £2.95. This booklet explains where to record
details found on birth, marriage and death certificates as well as how to make use of 'sources' to keep track of
where you found your information.
Why is Family Tree Maker one of the most popular programs for Genealogists?
- Getting Started is Fast & Easy
Family Tree Maker's Getting Started tutorial guides you step-by-step through entering data, searching for your ancestors, preserving important family information and stories, and creating unique family trees and books to display your legacy.
- Pedigree View
Family Tree Maker's new Pedigree View allows you to quickly and easily navigate your family tree. You can view up to seven generations or as few as three. When navigating to other generations in your tree, animation will help you see how the tree is changing, so you won't get lost.
- Family View
Family Tree Maker's Family View makes it easy to enter and view information about a single family unit. You can easily add more details and notes about an individual or a marriage, photographs or other images, additional spouses or other family members, and sources of your information.
- Store Countless Facts
Store a virtually unlimited number of facts for every individual in your Family File. We've already created fact categories (like births, deaths, marriages, emigration, etc.) so it's simple to use.
- Multimedia Scrapbook
Every person in your Family File can have his or her own digital Scrapbook. Store and display almost any type of information - including sound, video, and text files - along with a wide variety of graphic formats.
- View Two Family Files Simultaneously
View, compare, and edit Family Files side-by-side. You can check for similarities and differences between your files and ones you receive from family members or other genealogists, before or after merging.

- Design: Family Books
Family Tree Maker lets you combine your favorite printouts into a book, then automatically generates a Table of Contents, Index, and more. Print a keepsake copy for a loved one or publish it on your own personal Home Page to share with everyone.
- Share: Share Your History with Friends & Family
Using Family Tree Maker's export features, you can easily share your family trees, books, and reports electronically with relatives that do not own Family Tree Maker. Family Tree Maker allows you to output your information to PDF, GEDCOM, spreadsheet, and text file formats.
- Share: Publish your tree on the Internet
Share your findings on a FREE User Home Page on Genealogy.com. A home page wizard makes the process a snap - just choose which individuals you want to include and the page will be created in minutes.
Web Search Facilities
These are not always the most useful features for UK genealogists as the databases are very much North American based. A small proportion of the database does contain UK families so it is always worth a look and if your family tree links to ancestors who emigrated to the USA then it could prove very useful.
- Search: One-Click Searching to Find Leads on Your Ancestors
Family Tree Maker's web search feature will automatically search the world's largest online genealogical databases for more information on the people in your tree, and will rank the results to easily identify the ones that are most likely to be your ancestors. The FTM Web Search Report makes it easy to compare the information found online with the people in your tree, so you can quickly determine which information is relevant to you.
- Search: Web Merge Process
Merging and appending data from the web has never been easier. Now Family Tree Maker takes the guesswork out of merging. An easy to use wizard guides you through the incorporation of each new record you find. You can either accept Family Tree Maker's recommendations and add the new data in one step, or you can use the wizard to choose which information to add and whether to make the data 'preferred' or 'alternate' information. None of your existing information will be overwritten.
- Search: Save time
One of the most difficult tasks of family historians is finding the time to research and learn more about their family trees. Family Tree Maker 2005 can save you valuable time and makes searching for and finding ancestors easier than ever. Once you begin entering family names and building your tree, and as long as you're connected to the Internet, Family Tree Maker is working for you.
