The story of Family Tree Maker

Already a successful software entrepreneur and founder of Banner Blue Software, Ken was inspired by his mother, the family genealogist, to create Family Tree Maker. And the rest, as they say, is history.

* Add C$7.95 Shipping.

The year was 1989. Ken Hess created Family Tree Maker. This is his story.

Back when software came on floppy disks that were actually floppy, Ken Hess decided to leave his secure tech industry job to start his own company, Banner Blue Software. Five years later Family Tree Maker was born. That was 30 years ago in 1989. And this is his story. Bootstrap tells in riveting detail how Family Tree Maker was created and became the best selling family history software of all time.
