Family history that holds more than names

Build a family legacy people can understand and continue.

A useful family tree should show relationships and preserve the evidence, stories, images, and uncertainty behind them. Surreality Family Legacy connects those materials in a private workspace designed for ongoing family research.

FamilySearch Beta: A FamilySearch account is required. FamilySearch confirmed Surreality’s registered realm and redirect URI on September 25, 2026.

What to know

One record, multiple views

Add a relative once and use the same person and relationship data across pedigree, fan-chart, landscape, and decorative views. This reduces repeated entry and keeps corrections consistent throughout the tree.

Keep evidence with the person

Attach dates, places, records, memories, photographs, and source notes to the relevant person. Record what is documented, what came from a family account, and what still needs verification.

Continue after closing the browser

Family Legacy saves supported work to the current browser. Export GEDCOM, SVG, or image backups for portability and long-term safekeeping. Browser data can be lost if site storage is cleared, so important trees should always have an independent backup.

Research without turning guesses into facts

Use searches and FamilySearch Beta results as research leads. Review possible matches and duplicates, keep FamilySearch identifiers, and confirm proposed changes before any supported contribution is submitted.
