Our Mission
What you can do with Ancesvia
Five tools for real families, fictional worlds and everything in between.
Focus & Fold Away
Hide single people or whole branches whenever you only want to work on one part of your tree.
Custom Links
Show adoption, friendship, rivalry or freely named relationships next to descent and partnerships.
Your tree, your style
Adjust theme, pattern, colours and fonts with a free account. The data stays the same, the look follows your project.
Sub-Trees
Move large family branches or character worlds into their own layers and keep the link to the main tree.
