Your Partner in Professional Genealogy
I understand that tracing your family history is more than just piecing together names and dates; it’s about creating a rich, documented story of your heritage. As a professional genealogist, I’ve spent years in pursuit of that goal, and Pedigree Forge is the culmination of my journey—created out of necessity, refined through experience, and designed with passion.
When I first began my family history research, I quickly became disillusioned by the software available at the time. I needed tools that could handle professional-grade genealogical work: software that made entering and verifying data simple yet accurate, offered a wide range of charting options, and produced visually stunning reports. I wanted software that wasn’t a hindrance when it came to backing up claims with proper source citations—critical for serious genealogists.
Built By A Genealogist, For Genealogists
As a computer programmer and a genealogist, I decided to build my own solution. The result was Pedigree Forge, a tool crafted to meet the highest standards of genealogical work. Over time, it became my go-to for all client projects, delivering beautiful reports and flexible charting options while allowing me to focus on the complex task of research, without the burden of clunky software.

Whether you’re a professional genealogist or a dedicated hobbyist, Pedigree Forge has been designed to simplify the process, allowing you to focus on your research and enjoy the storytelling process of your family’s history.
