Welcome to Familypedia!

About • Tutorial • Help


(The largest semantic wiki for genealogy.)
We are currently working on 312,013 articles and 410821 other pages.
Here you can keep your family history research
organized, evergreen, accessible, and collaboration-ready.
Join us in this important and exciting work!

This is a place where you can create articles about your ancestors and can
easily link them to other articles about relatives and where and when they
lived. You can work wholly within this wiki, or you can link your articles to
external sites on the world wide web. And because this is a wiki format, you can
work collaboratively with others to create a network of articles about your
ancestors and about those they lived and worked with — or simply about people
you find interesting. It is our hope that, as this site grows, we will gradually
be able to link our ancestors into a network that goes far beyond the simple
nuts and bolts of who lived where and when.

The focus of this site is on capturing the details of the lives of our
ancestors, both those historically significant people and the everyday people
rarely listed in encyclopaedias, histories, or even "people's histories". Along
the way, Familypedia also provides information about the historical and social
context in which our ancestors found themselves.



This site aspires to be truly global, with active contributors and information
from several cultures and languages, and all four Hemispheres.

We have some of the latest wiki software to make page display easy and minimize
duplication of work. Semantic MediaWiki has been used to make data entry as easy
as on a commercial program and to make data retrieval and presentation easier
still. Check out Help:Articles/start.

Sign in and join us. Plenty of friendly genealogists here to help if you get
stuck! And be bold; mistakes can be reversed if necessary.

Cultural sensitivity: Some cultures are sensitive to the recording of certain
types of information. For instance, some tribes of Australian Aborigines forbid
the viewing of images of dead people. Australian Aborigines request that pages
with pictures of deceased Aboriginal people be clearly marked as such so that
the user can choose if they wish to view the page. See guidelines on cultural
protocol.

Alternative spellings: Where you are familiar with alternative spellings (eg
White/Whyte), please note them on the surname article page and if possible
create and/or link to those categories. Other readers may not have known of the
alternatives or thought to look there. See Help:Surname for more details about
