Developer’s Description

By Tapperware
genealogy / family tree application
My Roots is the most powerful genealogy application available for Palm OS handhelds. It lets you take your genealogy data with you wherever you go. Since handheld computers can fit in your shirt pocket or purse, they are much more convenient than a laptop or a 3-ring binder. With My Roots, you can stay organized and work more efficiently whether you're at a courthouse, library, or family reunion. My Roots comes with a free conversion utility (Windows and Macintosh) for importing data from GED files created by all the best-selling desktop genealogy applications including Family Tree Maker, Legacy, PAF, Reunion, Generations, The Master Genealogist, and Family Historian. Features include:
  • Import data from or export data to a GED file
  • One-tap navigation from any person to parents, children, and events (2 taps to a sibling)
  • Family group sheet screen displays all relevant family information in one place, including family events, children, and multiple spouses
  • Display ancestor and descendant charts
  • Support for sources and source citations
  • Create an unlimited number of notes, up to 32k each, for each person, event, and fact
  • Graphical relationship calculator
  • Support for multiple databases
  • Support for handhelds with color displays and expansion cards
