'''Personal Ancestral File (PAF)''' was a genealogy management software product formerly provided free of charge by FamilySearch. Like other genealogy management software, PAF allowed users to enter names, dates, places, source citations and other information into a database, and to print family group records, pedigree charts, descendancy charts, and other reports. PAF also allowed users to share their genealogical files with other researchers using GEDCOM formatted files and to link image and media files to individual records in their database. | '''Personal Ancestral File (PAF)''' was a genealogy management software product formerly provided free of charge by FamilySearch.
