Question

When i am finshed my family tree on wiki tree or as much as i can is there a way to copy it to a disc

Answer 1

Terry, following is the page you can go to download a GEDCOM of your family tree:

http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Special:DownloadGedcom

Whether you save the GEDCOM to disk or save it on your computer, you'll need family tree software in order to view it properly.

If you don't have the software to interpret the GEDCOM, FamilySearch.org offers their family tree software for free:

Personal Ancestral File (PAF)

You are welcome. :)

You might also use Gramps, which is a multi-platform Family tree program (Windows, Linux and MAC...amongst others).

Gramps is entirely free.
