Get Your Family History Research Organized

If your family history research is scattered across notebooks, emails, websites, and the occasional sticky note, you are not alone. Organizing what you've collected into a new system like Family Tree Notebooks doesn't mean starting over. You just need clear, flexible guidance that helps you bring everything together in one place.

The Tree Builder Toolkit (PDF) is a great place to begin. It gives you the core Family Tree Notebooks pages in a standard PDF format, along with guidebooks and videos that walk you through how to use them. You use your favorite PDF editor to add text and photos and slowly build books or archives a page at a time. Whether you're building a printed binder or working digitally, the toolkit helps you turn your research into something you can actually use and share.

Prefer to do everything online or not comfortable using a PDF editor? The Tree Builder Toolkit (Canva) includes the same pages as customizable templates on Canva.com with no software or design skills needed. You just drag, drop, and document.

Wherever your research is right now, this is your step toward clarity. You can get organized and I’ll help you every step of the way.

Note: If you start using the Tree Builder Toolkit and love it, you might be ready for The Complete Collection, which includes every Family Tree Notebooks page, plus lifetime access to new pages as they’re released. The good news is that the Tree Builder Toolkit includes a coupon code for $79 off the purchase of the Complete Collection so you don't lose your initial investment if you decide to upgrade to the full thing.
