Your family history, in date order
Place photos, home videos and family stories on a shared timeline. Add exact or approximate dates, connect memories to people and events, and invite relatives to fill in the gaps.
Photographs in date order.
See photographs, home videos and family occasions in one timeline. Follow three generations of the Carter family through Memrial.
Start with the date you know
Use an exact date when you have it, or add an approximate date when you are unsure. Dated photographs, videos and written memories appear together on the family timeline. You can add more detail later.
Find the memories of a person
Tag relatives in photos and videos, then select a person to see their memories across the years. Family Tree connects their parents, partners, children and extended family, with profiles and memories alongside them.
Ask the relatives who were there
Leave a question beside a photograph or suggest a date for the archive owner to approve. Memory requests and story prompts can help you ask for a specific photograph or story; availability varies by plan.
See which details are missing
Archive checkup lists memories that need names, captions or confirmed dates. Work through them when you have time, and ask relatives for the details they remember.
Keep your family photographs and research together
Memrial organises the photographs, videos and stories your family already has. Family Tree records the relationships you add; it does not search historical records. Keep separate backups of the original files and your genealogy research.
