My History

Genealogy supplies and family tree software from Doncaster

My History operates as a specialist supplier for family historians, combining software, printed charts and archival storage materials in a single catalogue. The company is based at Unit 1a Denaby Point, Coalpit Road, Denaby Main, Doncaster, and presents itself as a "Family Tree Software and Genealogy Supplies Specialist". Its range covers the practical side of genealogical work: recording, preserving and presenting research.

Software for PC and Mac

The software section is organised by platform. For Windows users the catalogue lists Family Tree Maker, Family Historian and Family Tree Builder by MyHeritage, the latter also offered on a USB memory stick. Mac users are served with Reunion and Family Tree Maker for Mac. Alongside the programs themselves, the site addresses the question of GEDCOM files and offers guidance on choosing software.

Printing, charts and bound books

A central service is the printing of family tree charts from a customer's own file, and the site also offers a free PDF of a family tree. The shop sells blank charts, including A3 blank family tree charts, a six-generation pedigree chart in packs of three and a working chart, plus chart tubes for storage and display. Beyond single sheets, My History can turn a family tree file into a printed book, and stocks bound books, family tree book pages, record pages and a family tree journal, as well as a children's family tree book and a timeline chart.

Archival storage and preservation

The preservation range is extensive and built around acid-free materials. It includes archive folders in A3 portrait and A4 portrait formats, A4 and A5 binders in portrait and landscape, photographic folders, photo box binders, scrapbooking binders and photo album pages. Certificate binders are available in A4 landscape, A3 landscape and a traditional long format, alongside springback binders for family history in plain, windowed and A5 versions. The catalogue also lists acid-free archival storage boxes and envelopes, postcard storage, document repair and cleaning products, archival-quality adhesives, archival pens, labels and note pads, researcher's files, magnifiers and other archiving sundries.

Maps, directories and research data

For research material, the company distributes trade directories and old maps of the UK as downloads, and sells data CDs, national genealogy data, historical directories and historical maps on CD. Alan Godfrey Maps for the UK and Ireland are listed, including one-inch and large-scale maps, with map storage pockets and maps in framed form. The site also points to online subscriptions and DNA testing for family history, and offers a data conversion service.

Gifts, starter resources and offers

A personalisation and gifts section covers framed family trees, personalised mugs, mouse mats, placemats and coasters, tote bags and genealogy note pads, alongside novelty gift ranges and gift vouchers. Beginners are addressed through genealogy starter packs, and the shop runs a weekly deal that changes on Thursday afternoons, plus special offers and clearance items. The site also mentions family history fairs and user groups, and invites customers to request a catalogue.

The site reproduces customer comments praising the book printing department, including one from September 2026 describing two printed books and another from August 2026 referring to a book titled Rushfield Paddock and the quality of its print and cover.
