The other characters are generally known as Friends, Associates, and Neighbors (or the FAN club). The context in a history has to cover developments in technology and life to show the external events that affect everyone.

They lack two important ingredients to a history: context, and (supporting) characters. HOWEVER, the traditional genealogy tools are poorly suited to constructing stories or narratives for a family history. I think it is too complex to just try and convert all of that data to Obsidian notes. Over that time I have accumulated data on several thousand profiles for people in the tree, some of them going back a thousand years. Hello I have been doing genealogy on traditional genealogy tools such as Family Tree Maker and Roots Magic for several years. Would love to chat if anyone is is considering or trying this. Parents and kids create a satisfying starlike pattern. I use the #Tree tag as a filter in the graph to see the “Family Tree”. I’ve created a template for the daily notes which opens with the following tags that I fill in for new people added. Images folder: the more important and representative family photos.I’m thinking of sharing some “The significance of this place to our family” stories with other family members. Places folder: each place gets its own note with compilation of all the family members and notable events that took place there.

My thought is that I could look at any month-day and look at family from a “This day in history” kind of thing Dates folder: each date of significance has its own note - I’m linking back to dates which are only M-D.Person folder: each person has their own note with tags used for each piece of data.So far this structure has been working well but I anticipate future adjustments: I’m using back links to connect the people and tags for each of the data categories.

I have never been happy with the genealogy software so I’m exploring Obsidian for this.
