How Bloodline helps families preserve their stories
From one name to a shared family legacy.
No genealogy expertise required. Here’s the whole journey, honestly described.
The steps
Start with what you know
One name is enough to begin. You don’t need dates, records, or a completed pedigree — just someone you love.
Add people and memories at your own pace
Add parents, siblings, partners, and children as you think of them. Attach a photo, a memory, or a life detail whenever you have one — nothing has to be finished today.
Invite the relatives who should be part of it
Send an invitation by email. Choose what each person can do — view, contribute, edit, or help administer — so the archive grows safely as more people join in.
Keep the archive understandable as it grows
A Family Perimeter keeps your own view focused on the relatives closest to you, even in a tree with hundreds of people. Switch between an immersive tree, a traditional chart, or a simple list — whichever reads clearest to you.
