About

Rodovid is an attempt to create a free family tree site that anyone can use. Rodovid.org powered by MediaWiki Software, the same used by Wikipedia. It has been customized to make working with genealogical data more convenient (see features below).

At this time the most usable language is Ukrainian. But you can change this situation.

Do you need a native language db? Ask about it.

Useful pages: Special:Youngestpersons, Special:Oldestpersons, see also Special:Specialpages.

Please, make any tests without any restrictions and registrations in a special database - http://engine.rodovid.org/

Features

Easy to use

To add a person all you need to is click Add Person to the left and fill in the fields (see Help:Genealogical records, description for what to put in each). To add relations you just type in their name and search for them. If they're already in the database they will be shown and you need only click on them. Otherwise you can create new records for them.

Automatic Tree Generation

A graphical tree is automatically generated showing two generations of ancestors and two generations of descendants, with their siblings and spouses as well. You can also view a version of this tree showing all generations, and also create a version optimised for printing. Or just click on sex (♂, ♀) mark near any person - you will see ALL its ansectors and descendnces.

GEDCOM Import

Rodovid allows you to import people into the database using GEDCOM files: the internationally recognised standard. Nearly all familly tree programs will allow you to save a tree in this format.

Interlinked Databases

Most genealogical data is simply names, numbers and places, so if you add a person in one language, they will appear in all the other languages (with the words 'name', 'birth' etc. translated). So [1], which was created in Ukranian, is also viewable in English [2].

Examples

Questions for non genealogical subject
