Ancestral Quest Family History Software 12.1

Ancestral Quest 12.1 (AQ) is a full-featured family tree records manager.

If you are new to genealogy, you will find AQ easy to use, yet very powerful. You can easily record your family history, attach digitized scrapbook objects, print charts and reports, conduct Internet research, and more. The CD includes a free starter video.

PAF 5, the program distributed by the LDS Church, was derived from an older version of AQ. PAF users can use AQ as an add-in to PAF, so they can continue to use PAF, yet take advantage of scores of new features. Or they could use AQ in place of PAF -- they would feel like they have just upgraded to a major new version of the same software.

Ancestral Quest is the first full-featured genealogy program to be certified for use with new FamilySearch. You can keep your local file in sync with the family tree of new FamilySearch. AQ is also a FamilySearch Certified PAF Add-In. A PAF user can continue to use PAF 5 while using AQ as the bridge between the PAF data and new FamilySearch.
