The Family Historian User Group (FHUG) Knowledge Base provides easy-to-find, practical and succinct advice on how to use Family Historian (ƒh) and associated resources, based on the accumulated years of experience of Family Historian users. Navigate through the article categories below, or use the Search boxes to find the help you need. We don’t offer advice on general computing problems or using the web, other than where it relates specifically to ƒh; if your query is of a more general nature, please try a search engine or ask for help on the FHUG Forums (which is also the place to go for ƒh-related queries that you can’t find an answer to here).
If this is your first time visiting the Knowledge Base, please take a few minutes to read How to Use the Knowledge Base to help you get the best from it. And once you’ve visited a few times, if you’re finding useful advice consider donating towards to the running costs.
If you would like to suggest an addition or improvement to the Knowledge Base, please let us know.
