Family Historian is a new kind of family tree program with a new and different design philosophy. It has a stylish 21st Century user interface, and incorporates a number of unique features. Diagrams (including the unique РІР‚?All RelativesРІР‚в„ў diagram) are tightly integrated and used for browsing, editing, and exploring as well as for printing wall charts.

Most programs let you link individuals to multiple pictures. Only Family Historian also lets you link each picture to all the people in them. It even lets you link people to their faces within a picture, without having to crop. Pictures (and/or faces within pictures) can be displayed in diagrams and reports.

Family Historian has a powerful query engine that lets you analyse your data and print the results, save them to a file, or copy them to another program (e.g. a spreadsheet). It also has unrivalled support for merge/compare. Only Family Historian allows you to merge/compare entire files, whole branches within a file, or pairs of individual records – while giving you complete control over the merge process.
