WikiTree is a free, online collaborative genealogy tool where you can post your sourced family history and meet with others who may be working on your family line. It has been growing for 16 years from the grassroots up.

Today, WikiTree has 1,255,527 community members and 42,875,250 ancestors and cousins on our tree, 15,288,686 of which have DNA connections.

Everything on WikiTree is free for everyone, forever. Expenses are covered by unobtrusive advertisements. Members who sign the Honor Code don't even see most of the ads, but can enjoy member benefits that cost money on other websites.

In-person registration for the workshop is limited to the first 30 people who register. Other participants can take part over Zoom.

Learn about WikiTree

Join us for a workshop session on how to use WikiTree in your genealogy research. For over 16 years, WikiTree has been the place where genealogists and family historians have collaborated on a free global family tree. Almost 1.3 million community members have shared information on almost 43 million of their ancestors. Over 15 million of those ancestors have DNA connections.

In this workshop, we will learn:

• ​how to create WikiTree profiles for our ancestors
• what the WikiTree Honor Code involves
• how to use the WIkiTree Browser Extension and WikiTree Sourcer
• how to use the WikiTree Automatic Gedcom Cleanup tool

This will be a hands-on workshop. In-person participants should bring a laptop computer so they can work along with the demonstrations. The workshop will be available for remote participants over Zoom and will be recorded and made available on the TIG page on the RGS website.
