Reunion For Mac

If you have ever made an attempt to trace your family's genealogy, you know that it is a fascinating experience, bound to unearth previously unknown information about your relatives.

Reunion is a comprehensive application that allows you to document this data, complete with records, sources, photos, audio files, videos or any other item you may wish to associate with a particular family member.

The data is then displayed in an accessible form and can be published on the web or exported to various file formats.

Not only can Reunion help you create a basic family tree, but you can also insert dates, places, notes, marital status, contact information, research logs and more. You also have the option of storing records that serve as sources for the inserted data.

If there is not enough information available about a specific family member, the app can search various genealogical sources on the web, to try and fill in the blanks.

Sometimes though, information can only be gathered from the persons in question and to help you with this task, Reunion enables you to print standardized questionnaires that can be distributed among your family members

While the classic genealogical tree is well-suited for providing an overall view of your family's history, Reunion also offers you the option of generating detailed charts, to obtain a graphical representation of the data. These make it easier to understand certain matters, and can be saved as image files or printed.

Reunion does not limit you to associating a single image file with each family member, as you can assign multiple photos, video files, sound recordings or documents to the same person.

In conclusion, Reunion is a handy OS X app that can help you document all known information about your family and display this data in a wide variety of accessible formats.
