GenealogyKG

GenealogyKG reads a GEDCOM 5.5 or 5.5.1 family-history file and builds a knowledge graph from it: people, families, events, places and sources as nodes, lineage and marriage as edges, and a sqlite-vec index for natural-language search. It is a genkg command-line tool, an MCP server, and a Python package, and it federates with the other KGRAG knowledge graphs as kind genealogy.

The Family orchard

The Knowledge Press: The Family is a web app that draws a family as an orchard you drive through in the browser. Each family line is a tree, and the home tree holds one person's descendants as its crown and ancestors as its roots. It reads the files genkg export-web writes; the public site shows the Kennedys, the Tudors and George Washington's family, built from this repository's curated corpus with living people redacted. Its user guide covers driving, the groves and the record reader.
