Open-Source Genealogy Software

Finally found a useable (if not perfect) software to track a family tree: The [Gramps Project](http://www.gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page). It does import my old gedcom files flawlessly, it seems. It took me a few minutes to figure it out, but in the end I think it’s pretty simple to use – of course you need to keep in mind that I am a [geek](http://geek.pandemonium.de) and not an average computer user.

  1. Just at the moment I´m working at a large family tree of the
    Jeppe family
    There is one person missing
    Friedrich Wilhelm Jeppe, born May, 25, 1815 in Grebenstein
    at that time Kurfürstentum Hessen-Kassel, he is mentioned as
    emigrated to South Africa, without any knowledge about him and his
    further fate
    The Jeppe from Lower Saxony had a branch here in Northern Hessen
    starting with Chritoph Jeppe, b. 1695, d. 1768
    a farm manager in Burguffeln, an baronial, then state estate.
    Best wishes
