WikiTree started growing 15 years ago, from the grassroots up. Our community is now 1,104,181 members strong. Most genealogists and serious family historians have accounts. Our shared tree has 38,151,543 profiles. 13,257,420 have DNA test connections.
"WikiTree is a great, collaborative, global family tree site for genealogists of every level from every part of the world." —Family Tree Magazine UK, November 2023
"Before WikiTree, I was skeptical and discouraged about big one-single-trees because there were (are) so many errors, but WikiTree is different because it's collaborative, genial and there are people available to help resolve any issues." — Roberta Estes, blogger
"It's been wonderful to experience how collaborative genealogy in WikiTree makes all of us better genealogists. Collaboration on our shared ancestors encourages us to share information and to hold each other to high standards." —Ellen Smith, member since 2014
"Don't let the many features and functions of WikiTree overwhelm you. Take it slow and ask questions. When you feel ready, look through the projects and see if there are any you'd like to join. Remember, this is a collaborative site, and WikiTreers are ready and willing to help."
"I very much enjoy the community of people I communicate with here on WikiTree. We all share the idea that we are trying to get the most accurate tree possible."
