Manage your local & family history research
Name & Place is the data management and mapping app designed exclusively for one-place studies, one-name studies and local history research projects.
The database application designed exclusively for:
One-Place Studies
Research of people and events within a single community, no matter where that is in the world.
One-name studies
Research of people sharing a single surname, and its derivatives, wherever that may occur.
Local history research
Accommodating a broad spectrum of projects, including research of specific aspects of a community, a cemetery or war memorial, even a ship's history.
Whatever the subject of your chosen project...
Reconstruct a community from the earliest records to the present day combining all the elements of research from sources, maps and media into a single integrated repository.
Building the complex interactions between people, places and sources.
The key building blocks within Name & Place are the people (names) and places, bound together by sources (the glue). This unique foundation gives you the ultimate flexibility upon which to build up your research project.
In contrast to family history software, we give equal importance to the place, whether that is as small as a grave or as large as a town.
Record all these interactions, with the events and facts that trigger them, easily within your Name & Place project.
An intuitive research tool with clarity and ease of use to the fore.
Name & Place enables you to:
Record
your research and treasures with sources for every fact and event.
Analyse
your data and look for trends.
Map
your place and witness population changes through time.
Report
in both tabular and graphical form.
Share
your findings to a global audience using the latest web technologies.

"Capturing the places in your extraordinary lives with Name & Place"
Follow Paul Carter, the creator behind Name & Place, as he takes a walk around some of Victorian Westgate on Sea, and describes how he's designed the software to fit with the needs of the local historian and one-placer.
Originally produced for the Society of Genealogists' All About That Place event in September 2023.
