Mac Software

Reunion

Reunion is a genealogy software program for the Macintosh. It received the highest rating for genealogy software in MacWorld, MacAddict, and Mac Home Journal magazines.

Reunion helps you to document, store, and display information about your family -- your ancestors, descendants, cousins, etc. It records names, dates, places, facts, plenty of notes, sources of information, pictures, sounds, and videos. It shows family relationships in an elegant, graphic form -- people and families are linked in an easy-to-understand fashion.

It used to have both a Windows and a Mac version. The Mac version continues to be developed by Leister Productions and is available from S&N Genealogy Supplies.

Data CDs

Our own data CDs are generally published as Acrobat documents on CD-ROM and are usable on the Mac and Windows. Please check that it states Acrobat in the data CD description. The 1901 London census uses long filenames and requires a utility for Macs to read the full filenames.

Windows Data CDs and Programs

If you wish to run any windows software or data CDs that aren't in Acrobat format, you will need to emulate a Windows system. Virtual PC does just that. It is the ideal method of ensuring that Mac users don't lose out on the broad range of Windows genealogy software.
