Start a family space
Choose a family name, set up the tree, and review the privacy settings.

Let’s walk through it.
Make it yours
Starting a new family space is a lovely way to bring everyone together. Once you have signed in, choose Create a Family. Give it a name people will recognize, then add a short family saying or a favorite cover photo if you like.
Begin your tree
The setup walks you through starting your tree. You can enter people yourself or use the import option with a prepared file. Follow the example format shown on the page, and check names and relationships before finishing. You can keep growing the tree later.
Choose your boundaries
Review the privacy and contribution settings. A family space is private and invitation based. Decide whether memories should be reviewed before they appear. Start with settings you feel comfortable with; a family admin can adjust them later.
Welcome your people
Finish creating the family, then invite a few relatives. When their leaves already exist, attach each invitation to the right leaf. That helps everyone land in their own part of the tree. Your family does not have to be complete on day one.
