Download the HTML file to your computer and open it in your browser to run the tool yourself.

A new set of trees is generated each time the page loads.

Tool configuration can be edited at the top of the javascript section of the file.

There is a button for downloading (exporting) a tree as a stand-alone HTML file. The file name is {tree-name}_{YYYYMMDD}_{HHMMSS}.html. Interactivity will not work on the downloaded version, so make sure to hit "Expand All" before downloading.

Key:

• (F) = Female
• (M) = Male
• (NB) = Non Binary
• 99y = lived for 99 years
• m. name = married to name
  • if the "last name" portion includes "??" then that person is not shown in any of the trees on the page
