I have collected numerous GEDCOM files (50-60) from various family members and others. I'm now retired and now want to merge/extract these files into one entity. There are obviously duplicates, some with more information than others. I am trying to decide what methods to use. I've thought of trying a GEDCOM to SQL parser, but defining the schema and all of the tables and dependencies seems overwhelming. I've also tried using manual duplicate/view/edit functions in some of the available genealogy apps, but that seems tedious and non-productive.

Has anyone faced this same situation? And how did you go about solving it?

    Yes, I faced this same situation. I like a challenge and created my own GEDCOM merge app. It's easier to import, prepare and merge the family trees in a genealogy app. – Willeke Feb 05 '22 at 10:35

  • Is your app available for use by others? – Doug12745 Feb 07 '22 at 17:19
  • Sorry, no, it does (kind of) work with my GEDCOM files but I don't think it will work with other files. – Willeke Feb 07 '22 at 22:13
