How to Use Legacy Trek
For most questions, Hav is the fastest way to get help. Ask anything — How do I add photos? How do billing charges work? How do I share my memoir? — just like you'd ask a real person.
Personal History Builder
Five steps, in this order: Interview (answer the questions), Outline (arrange them into chapters), Chapters (the writing happens here), Editor (fine-tune the text and photos), Publish (PDF, audiobook, or a printed book).
Roots Chronicles
Start at Ancestors — add the people you want to write about and answer the questions for each one. You can type them in yourself, or bring in a family tree file you exported from Ancestry.com or another genealogy service. From there it is the same four steps as above: Outline, Chapters, Editor, Publish.
Eulogy Writer
Two steps. Answer the questions about your loved one, then generate the eulogy and edit it. It is written to be read aloud at the service, so it leaves out service times, burial details and lists of survivors — those belong in an obituary.
The Eulogy Writer is free.
