How it all works

Every relative has their own Biography page, even if it just includes their name and dates.

The family tree

Each Biography includes the immediate family tree so you can then move up or down the tree.

Who can contribute?

Although the public can view all Biographies, contributions and modifications are restricted to logged-on relatives who have been registered on the website.

How much does it cost?

The Guinness Collection is funded by the curators, so relatives have free access to the entire contents of the Collection. If you are a relative, you need to Register (link at the bottom of this page) and then log in.
