There is no Legacy Room yet, friend.
A Legacy Room begins with a steward and a Constitution — the beliefs every story, photo, and record will point back to. It takes about ten minutes to begin.
Welcome to the Legacy Room
Choose your Room Profile. It shapes the words and the starting templates — the foundation underneath stays exactly the same for every kind of room.
Two things to start: what to call this family, and who is stepping forward as its Griot — the steward of the record.
This is you — the steward of the family record, keeper of the memory, the one who names who comes next.
Not a legal document. One page. The beliefs every other room will point back to.
Not a task — a reason. The one thing that, if it were lost, would break your heart. Everything you preserve here can begin with this.
Every family leaves a system. Every generation leaves a story. Every story deserves a keeper.

We are more than a family tree.
We are roots that crossed oceans, branches that survived storms, and generations still growing. This room honors where we came from, celebrates who we are, and preserves what we refuse to lose.
Every unanswered question is a story that may disappear forever. This is where your family gathers the questions that should never be lost — then answers them in your own words, your own voice, and your own time.
Write the question your family should not lose the answer to.
Choose a card, answer it, record it, or save it for the next family gathering.
What prayer carried our family through difficult seasons?
How did our family buy its first home?
What place shaped who we became?
What was the hardest season you survived?
What do you hope your grandchildren never forget?
What tradition of service or work has passed down through generations?
Organized like rooms inside the family home.
Prayers, scriptures, testimonies, church memories, and what carried the family.
Recipes, sayings, Sunday dinners, holiday traditions, and lessons passed down at the table.
First homes, family property, migration, deeds, neighborhoods, and places that shaped the family.
Hard seasons, recovery, survival, strength, and what the next generation needs to know.
Every question your family has chosen to preserve, in your own words.
The people closest to you, the branches that connect you, and a door to everyone else. Tap anyone to open their page.
Combine two records of the same person into one. Choose which record to keep — every relationship, photo, story, and tag from the other moves into it, and the duplicate is removed. One person, one record.
Choose a person, then open their record to correct parents, spouse, children, or who raised them.
Already built your tree on Ancestry, FamilySearch, or MyHeritage? Export it as a GEDCOM (.ged) and upload it here. Or, if a relative sent a spreadsheet, save it as a .csv and use that. Everyone comes in with their dates, places, and relationships connected — no retyping.
Using a spreadsheet? — fill it in (Excel can Save As → CSV) and upload it above.
A big imported tree lands everyone in one branch. Here you tell the room which side each surname belongs to — and a surname doesn't always go where you'd expect. A name might belong to your father's side; a maiden name might trace to the maternal line. Set it once, and future imports follow the same map.
Tap any name above to open its Name History — the story of how that name came to the family.
Not a dictionary definition — what this name carries for us.
Marks this record as you, the family's current Griot — your photo and your standing show on your page. To place your children under you, open each child and add yourself as a parent.
Shown after the name — "John Carter, Sr." — never forced into the first or last name.
A name can change without the person changing — migration, marriage, adoption, spelling, or protection from danger. Recording the change preserves the truth; nothing is erased.
Separate multiple names with commas.
Tap every branch this person belongs to — they'll appear under each one.
The nuance in your own words. The structural links (Parents, Spouse) below are what actually draw the tree.
The truth of how this person belongs — including the hard ones. An enslaver can also be a blood ancestor; the fields below let the record hold both without flattening either.
The truth behind the name, in your own words.
Full dates show on the profile and in search. If you fill an exact date and leave the year above blank, the year fills itself — the year still anchors the timeline and family tree.
Turn this on when the written record runs out. Their page will honor it as "preserved through family memory" instead of showing gaps.
Search for each biological parent and add them. Their children fill in automatically — these links draw the bloodline tree.
Search for the people who raised them but aren't their bloodline — a stepfather, an aunt who took them in. Shown on their page, kept out of the blood tree.
Search for each spouse and add them. The link shows on both their pages.
Traditions, recipes, sayings, values — the cultural inheritance, not just the dates.
A message to the descendants this person may never meet — shown with reverence on their page.
This room shouldn't feel like everyone else's. Choose the style that feels like your family's home — tap to see it right away, and change it whenever you like.
Give this branch its own character. Pick a style and add a line that captures it — both show only here, on this branch.
Choose the elder, the photograph, and the story that capture this branch. They appear at the very top of the branch page.
Celebrate a life — never gray. Choose a style that fits who they were, and add the words that hold their memory.
StyleEvery family leaves footprints. Some places gave us our faith. Some gave us our traditions. Some gave us our names. Some gave us our strength. This is where the journey becomes visible.
Not just dates. The moments that shaped the family — births, migrations, land, love stories, businesses, prayers, losses, recoveries, and the wisdom each generation carried forward.
"A family becomes stronger when it can see where it has been, what it survived, and what it is building next."
Each card holds photos, audio, documents, people, locations, and the lesson that should never be lost.
Anything that changed the family story: a birth, a death, a wedding, a house, a move, a church, a business, a graduation, a land record, a recovery, or a lesson learned the hard way.
Every family carries stories that deserve to outlive the people who told them. Record voices, preserve prayers, capture traditions, and leave more than photographs.
Stories gather by type, so your family can find the prayers, songs, memories, lessons, and traditions that shaped them.
Recorded conversations, testimonies, and family interviews.
The words your family prayed through hard seasons.
Recipes, sayings, porch talks, and lessons passed down.
The music that carried your family through generations.
How people met, stayed, rebuilt, forgave, and chose family.
Sunday dinners, reunions, holidays, land, and home rituals.
First homes, school days, neighborhood memories, and play.
The principles your family kept repeating for a reason.
Choose what this memory is — Oral History, Prayer, Song, Interview, Kitchen Wisdom, Tradition, or Life Lesson — and it will gather here on its own.
Every family has papers that prove where we've been, what we've survived, and what we're leaving behind. The Bible, the deeds, the discharge papers, the funeral programs — kept together, the way they were in Grandma's cedar chest.
Preserve the places your family owned, rented, farmed, built, defended, lost, or recovered. Land is more than property. It is memory with an address.
Money is more than numbers. It is wisdom, systems, relationships, and decisions repeated over generations. This room preserves the instructions, principles, and clarity your family should never have to search for.
Not just what you own — how it works, who to call, what you believe, and why it matters.
Insurance, trusts, accounts, beneficiaries, retirement accounts, and the philosophy behind how the family handles money.
Business operating systems, vendor lists, pricing, contracts, payroll, logins, and the knowledge that should not live in one person's head.
Family property, deeds, tax records, vehicles, equipment, and assets tied to the family story.
Giving, stewardship, debt philosophy, generosity, work ethic, faith, and the reasons behind the systems you chose to build.
These are the beliefs that shape how the family spends, saves, negotiates, builds, gives, borrows, and protects what has been entrusted to us.
The practical knowledge that helps the next generation keep the business, property, and household systems moving.
If you are reading this, I want you to remember that money is not just what sits in an account. Money is choices, discipline, stewardship, courage, and clarity.
Own land when you can. Protect your name. Keep good records. Treat people fairly. Do not panic when a system can be repaired. Build what your children will be grateful to inherit.
Love,
The one who wanted you to know what to do
You don’t own this family’s record — you’re entrusted to preserve it, share it, and one day pass it on. This is where that begins.
Stewardship is a responsibility, not a possession. You may update your Successor Griot at any time, and every designation becomes part of your family’s History of Preservation.
Connecting links your room with another family’s — by mutual approval on both sides. Once you’re connected, you can share collections with each other in the section to the right.
Share one of your collections with a connected family. The connected family then sees those items live in their own room — when you update one, they see the change.
Collections other families have chosen to share with you. You’re seeing them live from their record — read-only, theirs to edit.
Create the invite, then copy the link and share it however your family talks — text, email, Messenger, or GroupMe. The email field helps match them to the right person; the app won’t send anything itself. You can change their role or revoke the invite any time before they accept.
Linking them to a person in the tree lets them land in the room already knowing where they fit — and connects their account to that record.
Add your story, photos, and memories to your own record. What you add goes to your Griot for review, then becomes part of the official family record.
Stories, photos, and corrections your family has suggested for the record. Approve them into the official record, or reject with a note. Nothing reaches the record until you approve it.
Enter the email of the other family’s Griot. They’ll be asked to approve the connection from their own Steward’s Desk — nothing links until both sides agree, and no records are shared in this phase.
Stewardship isn’t transferred. It’s entrusted — on the record, in your own words. This takes a few minutes, and you can change it later.
Not a filing cabinet — a museum of your family. See what returned today, what was just preserved, and the milestones that became part of your story.
Browse the full archiveYou're not saving files — you're preserving a life. Start with what it is.
Tag it so it can be found from every door — branch, people, place, and time — then connect it to the belief that makes it part of your story.
Which branch of the family does this belong to? This is how the archive stays organized — like your photo albums, but shared across every view.
The reason this matters — so years from now, anyone can search the archive by purpose, not just by date.
Tag everyone in it. Names you've added in the People room autocomplete here, so a person's page gathers all their items.
Choose what kind of family record this is — a recipe, a funeral program, an oral history. Choosing one may suggest a Constitution belief or Collection below.
Optional — connect it to one or more parts of the Constitution if it fits. You can always add this later.
Once a year, the family answers the same five questions. Kept side by side, year after year, they become the record of how your family's thinking changed — in your own words.
Answer the ones that matter this year. You can revise this year's reflection any time — it's never deleted.
We carry the soil of where we came from — and we have put down deep roots right here. This room holds both: the homeland in our blood, and the ground where we built our life. One DNA test, preserved in the archive for every generation after — no subscription required.
From a DNA test or from family knowledge. Add the ancestral regions, the migration path, and a reflection for the generations after you. Leave anything blank that you don't have yet.
Every version is kept. The original is never erased — only built upon. This is how the family sees what changed, when, and why.
Families evolve. Edit what's changed and say why — the previous version is never erased, only superseded. Your change is recorded as the next version.
How this family's inheritance was received, corrected, preserved, and passed forward.
Every preservation decision becomes part of the inheritance. Steward carefully, so those who follow may inherit both truth and wisdom. Become worthy ancestors.
