An online family tree maker is a web app for building a visual chart of your relatives and how they connect. FamBranch is free to start, works in any browser, adds photos and stories to each person, and lets your whole family co-edit and share one living tree.
Build your family tree online in minutes
Type in a name, drag to add parents, partners and children, and watch your tree take shape instantly. There is nothing to download and no design skills required — FamBranch handles the layout, spacing and connections for you so every branch stays clean and readable.
Add a photo, birth year, and a short story to each member. Members without a photo fall back to an elegant initial-and-gradient avatar, so your tree always looks finished.
