LineageScribe
Create beautiful family histories.
In active developmentEnter family information once, then use it to make attractive visual histories. LineageScribe brings structured people, relationships and life events into family trees, ancestor profiles and timelines.
It sits between genealogy software and design software: a place to organise what you know and present it with care.
One family record, many creations
The story stays connected.
Family data at the centre. Visual creations that draw from it.
People, relationships and events belong to the shared family project. A tree, profile or timeline reads those records rather than becoming a disconnected copy of the facts.
Edit a person or event in the record and linked creations can reflect the change. Uncertain dates remain visibly qualified; the application does not invent missing history.
Inside the current application
From records to finished pages.
Family trees
Create trees from linked records, with vertical or horizontal generations, information presets, spacing and restrained visual accents.
Ancestor profiles
Choose between three profile compositions. Sections adjust to the known facts and use real A4 or A5 page geometry.
Person timelines
Build vertical or horizontal timelines from recorded life events, with category filters, detail controls and visible date uncertainty.
Edit and preserve
Undo and redo record and design changes. The browser saves a local copy; download a project file as a backup and load it again later.
Considered export
Preview and export share their layout. Download SVG or a 300 ppi PNG where a creation fits its page; overfull pages block export rather than silently clipping text.
Future direction
More ways to tell a family story.
A family tree can be the start of a publication, not its limit.
Longer-term work may bring family-history books, richer profiles, photograph and document pages, maps, source-aware publishing and illustrated stories.
A careful fit within the family
Possible links to AtlasScribe maps and HeraldryScribe artwork are future ideas, not current integrations. LineageScribe remains its own family-history workspace, rather than a general genealogy database or an archival research service.
Who it is for
For the people behind the names.
Family historians, researchers and anyone gathering stories to share with the next generation. The current application demonstrates how connected records can become readable, visually considered creations.
Development status
In active development
LineageScribe has a working application foundation with trees, profiles and timelines. Development is focused on refining layouts, editing and export, while broader publishing features remain future work.
