You just haven't found an easy way to do it.
Maybe you've got sticky notes with dates and names. Maybe the stories live in your head - or in the heads of relatives who won't be around forever.
You've thought about creating a family timeline. You've started and stopped. You're not sure what tool to use, where to put the information, or whether you'll ever be able to find it again.
I hear this from so many people. And I want you to know: you are not behind. You're just missing the right tool.
That's exactly why I built the Family Events Database App.
A simple app that does one thing really well.
The Family Events Database App is a downloadable app that lets you record every important event in your family's history - births, weddings, military service, moves, milestones, losses, and everything in between.
It opens right in your web browser. No installation. No account to create. No monthly fee. And your data never leaves your computer.
Search by year. Filter by event type. Add notes and details. Export anytime. It's the family history tool you've always needed - and simple enough to actually use.

What customers are saying
"Now I've got a place to keep track of significant events in my family's history - so important as I'm working to digitize and organize 30+ years of my immediate family's images. Getting started was painless, and it's been simple to add, edit and delete events and categories."
A note from Susan
I built this tool for my own family - and then I realized every family needs something like it.
Over the years I've helped hundreds of people get their photos and memories organized. And again and again, I'd hear the same thing: "I have all these dates and stories in my head, but I don't know where to put them."
Spreadsheets feel cold. Big genealogy platforms feel overwhelming. Notebooks get lost. And nothing quite fits.
So I created something that does. The Family Events Database App is warm, simple, and built around one idea: your family's story deserves to be preserved - and it should be easy to do it.
I truly hope it helps your family the way it's helped mine.

Common questions
Do I need to install any software?
No. The app is a single HTML file that opens directly in your web browser - no installation required. Just open the file and start using it.
Which browsers does it work in?
The full experience - including saving your data directly to a file on your computer - works in Google Chrome, Brave, and Microsoft Edge. Firefox and Safari will work with limited functionality; your data will be stored in the browser rather than a file on your computer.
What happens if I clear my browser's cache?
If you're using Chrome, Brave, or Edge, your data is saved in a file on your own computer - not in the browser - so clearing your cache won't affect it. The app also reminds you to export a backup file regularly.
Is my family's information private?
Completely. The app does not connect to the internet. Nothing is uploaded to any server or shared with anyone. Your family's history stays on your computer, in a file you control.
What is your refund policy?
Because this is a digital download, all sales are final once the file has been accessed. If you run into a technical problem, please reach out before requesting a refund - I'm happy to help troubleshoot.
