For the past years in my gratis time I have been dilligently creating a family tree using Family Tree Maker and using church records I take been able to trace all of my ancestors back to the early on 17th century and some lines much further back. I wanted to share this information with my extended family in Portugal and was wondering what site would be best to upload the file and so they could see the information as well.

As far as I know, "Family Tree Maker" will be discontinued pretty soon, and so I suggest to brand a GEDCOM file every bit shortly every bit possible and just save it for the time being.

Then when you decide which programme to continue with, tell your Family in Portugal to use the aforementioned i.

For case, MyHeritage has a free version, with sure conditions. Similar less than 250 people and less than 500 MB of storage.

You mentioned you used church records to add information in your family tree.
May I enquire which church did you glean the data from?

Except for the GUI (which I actually do not like) MyHeritage has a super means of data mining and has a very proficient search engine for European data.
Then I utilise MyHeritage to practice research, and then the LDS programme (Family Search) for other stuff that I want to go done.

Keep in mind, a GEDCOM file cannot be "looked at". Information technology is simply a ways of genealogy data transfer, and some programmes do not accept GEDCOM files, or can not make i ...
As well, a GEDCOM file will not transfer "Living" people data.

Family Tree Maker is not being discontinued. MacKiev bought the plan from Ancestry in 2016 and came out with a new version in 2017. The new version was recently updated and is superior to the program Ancestry had developed. The sync feature is also ameliorate.

Also, if a software program you physically own is discontinued, the program continues to operate.

As irman said, you need to create a GEDCOM. You tin can customize it to include which people you want to include, including living folks.

If information technology were me, I would make copies of the GEDCOM on thumb drives and just mail service them to the people you want to share it with. You might exist able to email it if the file is not likewise big.

The recipient will need a genealogy software plan that tin can import the GEDCOM file. The GEDCOM allows different people to use unlike software and still use the GEDCOM.

Notation the directions about media files. At that place are some things you need to do before you create the GEDCOM.

I used the parish records from the town my parents were from as they have been uploaded online and are public, and most of my ancestors until the 18th century were from the same cluster of villages. Beingness that Portugal did not have any other religion than the Catholic Church, it made my job much easier. Early, the Patriarch of Lisbon decreed that all marriages, baptisms and deaths be recorded, the fact that Portugal avoided modern wars on its territory and that archives in Lisbon were stored in an area of Lisbon unaffected by both the 1531 and 1755 earthquakes, ways nearly records accept survived.

I take already backed up my files into a GEDCOM, but I was hoping there would be a site where I could upload information technology in a user friendly format. I am part of a facebook group of my parents' hometown in Portugal which now has 1,800 other people (the town only has ii,000) and many of the individuals from there, particularly older ones accept asked me for information. I am looking for a site where I could upload the GEDCOM so that it would appear online as a tree that could be accessed and easy enough to read for those who are not fluent in English language.

I am surprised that no one has mentioned Wikitree. Information technology is 100% free. One time you upload your GEDCOM, you volition desire to somewhen add together picture and other biographical details. They say:

"Our tree includes 16,815,106 profiles (3,928,179 with DNA examination connections) edited past 510,655 genealogists from around the world."

In that location may be even a Portugal Project to which you could add your family.

I looked at wikitree, simply I was reading that I could no longer upload my GEDCOM file into a tree, only to match information technology with people. It just seems similar a lot of work to manually enter all of the individuals.

You tin upload your gedcom and you don't accept to enter the details of each individual manually, if that's what yous mean - only afterward uploading the gedcom, y'all do take to evaluate whether each private in the gedcom is already in the database or not. If so, you have to merge them, and if not, you can then add them as a new person. All their details go added automatically when you do that, merely just after you've said "no, this person doesn't match anyone else in the database" and clicked "add". Having to do that on every individual in your gedcom is indeed a lot of piece of work if you lot accept a big tree, but the thought is to increment the integrity of the information that gets added.

More than importantly, if y'all don't want anyone to be able to edit your work, Wikitree and FamilySearch are not the correct places to put your tree. If you don't mind that, FamilySearch might exist proficient. Otherwise, mayhap endeavor: https://www.tribalpages.com/ - I've heard a lot of people like that.
