Genbox Family History is genealogy software for Microsoft Windows, developed by Thoughtful Creations. It functions as a database, a research planner and task organizer, a data analyzer, a chart producer, and a report writer.

Features

Genbox has evolved since its first release in 1993 as a DOS family tree charting application.[2] It is now a complete genealogy software package, with project organisation features, support for data and media storage, source citations, and the production of complex and customizable charts and reports.

Some of its features include:

  • Support for complex relationships among individuals, events, dates, places, and source citations: multiple personal names and identifiers, optionally linked to defining events, can be stored for individuals. Accurate relationships between each child and any number or type (biological, adoptive, foster, step, etc.) of parents can be stored.[3] Any number of event types, attributes, and flags can be defined. Witnesses to events can be recorded, along with their roles.
  • An unlimited number of event types and source types are supported with a sophisticated, multi-language template system. Event sentences and citation formats can be customized by the user.[4]
  • Reports can be generated in rtf and HTML format.[5]
  • Multimedia support for images, audio, and video[6]
  • Full Unicode support, GEDCOM import and export.
