Your family history - connected and preserved.
Build a tree that holds names, dates, photographs and the things only you remember. Then invite the people who can fill in the rest.
Free to use
No card, no trial and no limits on how large your family tree grows
Private by default
Only you and the relatives you invite can open the tree. Sharing is always something you switch on.
Yours to take away
A view-only web page, a printable PDF, or standard GEDCOM that any other tool will open.
A family history that stays in the family
Every family tree starts with a question. Where did Grandma grow up? Who is the uncle in that faded photo? How exactly are we related to the cousins abroad? RootSpring gives those answers a lasting home and keeps them with the people they belong to.
Families use RootSpring to capture what relatives remember before it's lost. A grandparent might record names and dates from memory, siblings might piece together both sides of the family, or a parent might build a record their children will one day inherit.
Trust matters when the subject is your own family. RootSpring shows no ads, never sells your information, and never uses your tree to build advertising profiles. Your tree is visible only to the relatives you invite. If you'd rather hold the files yourself, you can keep a project in your own Google Drive. Whenever you want to take your history elsewhere, it leaves with you.
RootSpring is free to use with no commitments or hidden clauses, so nothing stands between your family and its first branch.
