About Genes Reunited
Genes Reunited was launched in 2003 as a sister-site to the internet phenomenon Friends Reunited. Since then it has grown to become one of the UK's largest genealogy website.
It marked a revolution in genealogy and ancestry by combining them with online social networking. Members are able to build their family tree by posting it on the site and investigate which ancestors they share with other members. They can also search historical records such as census, birth, death and marriage records.
Genes Reunited has over 13 million members and over 780 million names listed. One new name is added to the site every single second.
