Genealogy-specific tools

Projects
Organize your research into projects, each with an objective, subjects, and research plan. Great for client work or all your family lines.
Research log
Mark each item in your log as a positive or negative result. Write abstracts and comments. Search your log. Export it to a spreadsheet.
Automatic research log
Turn it on, then start researching. Goldie May keeps a list of all the sites you visit, rabbit holes and all.
Screenshots
Take screenshots and save them directly to your research log.
Citations
On known websites, citations are created for you.
Snapshots of your windows & tabs
Too many browser tabs open? Take a snapshot and save them for later. Let's call it rabbit-hole insurance.

About & Contact

On a personal note, I'm a software developer who worked in tech roles at three genealogy companies. Now I'm building Goldie May to be the tool I want for my own genealogy research. I hope it's also useful to you!

Goldie is my great-grandmother's name and May comes from a beloved ancestor on my wife's side of the family.

If you have any questions or comments, I'd love to hear from you!
