History

Geneac is a product written mostly by me, Mitchell Rysavy. I started working on a website to store and share my genealogy research while I was an undergraduate student at the University of Minnesota-Duluth. Originally, the project was called ‘familiar,’ and I used this as the basis for a capstone project in the Honors program.

You can see the original paper and poster on the University of Minnesota Library’s Digital Conservancy.
