Use Appropriate Forms: Difference between revisions

You could also use computer programs to generate these forms. After you type genealogical information once, these programs can generate many kinds of forms such as completed family group records and pedigrees. For example, the Personal Ancestral File computer program makes it easier to cite the sources which document events, and allow you to even add customized events to a family group record. Computer programs allow you to make frequent updates and share information with others while limiting the mistakes caused by redundant typing or writing of information. For further details see [[Use the Information#Using_a_Computer_for_Genealogy|Using a Computer for Genealogy]].  

The Personal Ancestral File program can be downloaded for free starting at the FamilySearch^TM Internet Genealogy Service home page at http://www.FamilySearch.org. There are several other commercial computer programs you can purchase which also help you keep and organize genealogical information.
