App Description

Explore the world of your ancestors with the Wolfram Genealogy & History Research Assistant, the only tool that lets you discover what was going on while they lived. Map family relations and expand on what you already know about any of your ancestors with a simple, easy-to-use interface. It's as if you're traveling through time with the tips of your fingers.

This is just a small sample of the many questions you can investigate about your ancestors:

-Were their names common at that time?
-What happened on their birthdays?
-What was the weather like on your grandparents' wedding day?
-What were the towns they lived in like, including demographics, and how far are they from where you live?
-What was 20 dollars worth the year your great-grandmother was born?
-What is the technical relationship between you and your grandfather's sister?

The Wolfram Genealogy & History Research Assistant is powered by the Wolfram|Alpha computational knowledge engine and is created by Wolfram Research, makers of Mathematica—the world's leading software system for mathematical research and education.

The Wolfram Genealogy & History Research Assistant draws on the computational power of Wolfram|Alpha's supercomputers over a 3G, 4G, or Wi-Fi connection.
