A Genealogical Tree: How to Build It and Keep It
A genealogical tree is the preserved memory of a lineage. To build one is to give your descendants the knowledge of who their ancestors were and how they lived.
Lay the foundation
Start with the generations you know: parents, grandparents, great-grandparents. Write down names, years of life, places, and occupations. This is the skeleton of the genealogical tree that you will build upon.
Add faces and stories
Bare names come alive when you add photographs, voice, and personal accounts. In Pomni each ancestor is a memory page rather than a single line, so the tree holds not only the connections but the characters of the people.
Reconstruct the branches
Move deeper and wider: brothers and sisters, their families, distant relatives. Merge the trees of different branches of the family with their keepers' consent, and the picture of the lineage becomes complete.
Preserve it for those who come after
A digital genealogical tree does not decay and remains accessible to future generations. You can open it to the family or lock it with a password, and you can export the data at any time.
