This is the first-ever UK edition of the software, and throughout there is a focus on providing UK as well as world links and databases.
Installation is easy, since the software is designed with new computer users in mind, and the tutorial covers the basics of using databases and the Internet to fill in gaps in your family tree, as well as the basics of offline genealogy. While you are waiting for the installation or your Internet connection, browse through the paperback copy of Netting Your Ancestors by Web guru Cyndi Howells and Ultimate Guide to Tracing Your British Ancestry; these will save you precious minutes and hours of research time and give you ideas for searches you might never have thought of otherwise. Once you have a few names, add data such as birth, marriage and death dates; military service; and places of residency; then plan how you will organise your chart. Use traditional tree structures with lovely full-colour backgrounds, cascading pedigrees and family-history data sheets, or even a 3-D tree unique to this package. Any point in any structure can be linked to text, photos, sounds or video files.
More advanced genealogists may want to consider Generations 8: UK Grande Suite which includes extra research databases, cookery and digital imagery resources. Still, Generations Family Tree: Starter Kit is indeed a good starting point: it will make genealogy fun, and you just may find that Grandma Rose by any other name is just as sweet. --Kathleen Keefe
