The tree looks like this now:
The generated “pedigree chart” shown here above shows a persons ancestors. The chart is generated from the database. You can click on any name in the chart to continue your journey 🙂
The first thing you have to know is the menu in the top left corner of the page:
To search for a person click on “Persons” (1).
To look at alle the pictures that I’ve collected here, click on “Photos” (2).
The other choices in the menu will not give you much information, since I haven’t collected these information.
When you choose a person then there are several options here:
If you want to see the pedigree chart of your family, start by finding the youngest descendant. Unfortunately the system can’t generate a “tree” showing the decendants.
Added information and pictures for descendants for

Thanks to those of you who send me new information!
You can use your smartphone og tablet as a photo scanner by using an app created by Google. It works on iOS (Apple) devices and Android devices.
I know many of you have fantastic pictures of our grandparents in old photo albums. Some of these pictures can not be removed from the album. And not everyone has a picture scanner. But with this app you can scan any picture without removing them from the picture frame or album.
All you have to do, is take a photo of the picture with a steady hand. You will get great results, if the picture is placed in a lot of indirect daylight. But you can easily also take pictures in the evening.
The app is called Photoscanner from Google.

The database has been updated with information about the descendants of Fatimeh Maktabi: the Bushehri – and Rastegar family
I came in contact with Hassan Boushehri a month ago and got to know about the daughter Fatemeh of Mulla Ali and Khajije. Hassan got me in contact with Bahar Rastegar.
From Bahar Rastegar I received valuable information about this branch of the family tree. Bahar also emailed me many wonderful pictures, that I’ve added.
The database has been updated with those people, and will later this week be uploaded.
Fatemeh was the sister to Ali Akbar, Abdul Mahmoud, Mehdi, Habiballah and Hussein. Daughter of Mulla Ali and Khadije.
She married Ibrahim Bushehri.
I received this picture from Hassan Bushehri where his mother is posing together with her father and brothers.
Can someone translate the writing?
Over the past couple of days I received new information about a sister to my grandfather Ali Akbar Maktabi. Combined with many smaller changes and information I decided to update the database and upload a new version.
The first page you’ll see is me 🙂

I hope you will spend a few moments going through your own family and see if I’m missing information. This could be
Ps.: The database starts with my kids and goes from there. Therefore you will find people that are not Maktabis, but relatives to my wife Annette. The tree also contains data about the family of my mother going back more than 500 years. I can’t filter this part out of the database easily.
