One family history. A suite of tools built around it.
Family history doesn't happen in one place. There's the research - certificates, censuses, notebooks, theories, dead ends. There's the record of what you've proved. And there's the version you share with your family and the world. Most software forces all of that into one box, or scatters it across subscriptions you'll never fully own.
AncestorPress takes a different approach: a suite of WordPress plugins, each built to do one job properly, all working from a single shared family history stored in your own site's database. Research in one tool, curate in another, publish and display wherever you like - and because every plugin reads the same data, nothing is ever re-entered, exported between products, or trapped when you change your mind.
Each plugin stands alone and is free to install. Together they become something no subscription service offers: a complete, permanent home for your family's history that you own outright - on your own site, in an open format, exportable any day you choose.
Start with Family Trees today. The rest of the suite is on its way...
A growing family of tools for genealogy on WordPress
Family Trees - Just Launched
Display interactive family trees anywhere on your WordPress site. Import your GEDCOM, place trees in posts and pages with a block or shortcode, or link any name to a full profile page. Living relatives stay private by default. Free to install, with advanced charts and display options in the paid edition.
Family Research- Coming Soon
The private workbench behind the published history. Capture certificates, photos, notebook pages and stray notes as fast as you find them. Let AI transcribe and connect them. Organise everything around research questions and brick walls, then promote proven conclusions into your archive with citations attached. Never public. Always yours.
Family Archive - Coming Soon
Your family history as a complete, curated website: person pages, surname indexes, search, timelines and reports. Conclusions only, every fact sourced, living people protected. The WordPress-native successor to classic genealogy sitebuilding software - with a TNG importer to prove it

Designed specifically for one-name and one-place studies. Manage surname variants, log every occurrence wherever you find it, analyse distribution across counties and censuses, and publish your study properly on a site you own.
