New Ancestry.com Family Tree Maker 2011 Introduces More Than 100 Enhancements to Software

No. 1 Selling Family Tree Software Offers Simplicity and Depth for Recording Family Histories

PROVO, Utah, Aug. 31 -- Ancestry.com today announced the release of Ancestry.com Family Tree MakerĀ® 2011, an improved version of the world's No. 1 selling family history software.

For the last 20 years, Family Tree Maker has provided tools that make it easy to build family trees, record memories and organize family photos. Family Tree Maker also enables users to capture stories, and attach videos and audio clips in a way that will help them easily capture and share the story of their ancestors both on-and offline.

"Family Tree Maker 2011 delivers significant improvements on many fronts.  By incorporating changes recommended by a diverse base of novice and experienced family researchers, we have arrived at what we believe to be our best release yet," said Eric Shoup, Senior Vice President of Product at Ancestry.com. "With the recent surge in interest in family history, Ancestry.com and Family Tree Maker have an important role to play in creating new family historians."

Without leaving Family Tree Maker, users can search the robust collection of family history records on Ancestry.com and simply incorporate matching results directly into their tree. Family Tree Maker 2011 automatically searches Ancestry.com for historical documents about the individuals in the user's family tree when connected to the Internet. Family Tree Maker 2011 comes with either a free trial or subscription to Ancestry.com.

Ancestry.com Family Tree Maker makes it easier than ever to discover your family story, preserve your legacy and share your unique heritage. Of the more than one hundred enhancements added to the software, the following are some of the new and improved features found in Family Tree Maker 2011:

  --  Smart Stories(TM) - Ready to start on an ancestor's story? The Smart
      Story editor makes it easy to drag and drop text and photos from your
      tree into story pages that will update automatically when you make
      changes to your tree.

      charts with backgrounds, borders and embellishments. And use fonts you
      can change based on fact type.

      searching for your ancestors by viewing Member Connect activity on
      your home page, plus links to related message boards and new messages
      in your inbox. You'll also enjoy faster uploading and downloading of
      your tree.

      categorize multiple items at the same time. You'll also find a new
      tool that will help you locate missing media files.
