My Relatives
The My Relatives app aims at documenting and exploring family relations. It is based on the concepts of Person, representing a real person with a birth date, birth name, birth gender etc., and Life Events that specify when a person gets married, changes name, has a child, gets divorced, etc. Using this information, the app can determine and lets you interactively explore each person’s relatives, from great-grandparents to half and step siblings to second cousins-in-law:
add person --> add events --> explore relatives
While My Relatives is not positioned as genealogy
software per se — it aims at ‘broad’ relationships (cousins, cousins of cousins, etc.) rather than ‘deep’
relationships (great-grandparents, great-great-grandparents, etc.) — it can certainly be used for creating deep family trees.
The app has a variety of features, such as GEDCOM import/export, splitting and combining family trees, and data set
consistency check and statistics. See the User Manual for details.
My Relatives is multi-lingual; English, Dutch, Spanish and German are currently supported. An example database with the members
of the British Royal House is provided.
