What's New in Clooz 2.1!

 

The long-awaited Clooz version 2.1 is now available. Go to the Downloads page to download.
Version 2.1 requires Windows XP and works in compatibility mode on Windows Vista
.

The new version includes, in addition to the existing templates of version 1.23: 

  • 1911 Canadian Census

  • 1831-1901 French Censuses

  • 1819 German Census (Mecklenburg Schwerin)

  • 1801-1900 Norwegian Censuses

  • 1836, 1921-1945 Newfoundland Censuses

  • 1906 NW Provinces of Canada Census

  • Agricultural, Buildings, Business, Mortality, and Manufacturing censuses for Canada (where available)

  • 1850-1885 US Mortality Schedules

  • 1850-1885 US Agricultural Schedules

  • 1850-1885 US Manufacturing Schedules

  • 1880 US DDD Schedule

 

Under census substitutes, in addition to directories (of which there are now four types--religious, farm, school, and population) and Irish Valuation, there are the following forms:

  • Tax Record

  • Irish Tithe Applotments

  • Voters' List

Under documents, in addition to the existing selections, there are also:

  • Birth Record

  • Deed

  • Marriage Record

  • Naturalization

  • Passenger List, Early

  • Passenger List, Later

  • SSDI

 

In addition to photos, there is an entry for Maps.

The source templates are designed following the writings of Elizabeth Shown Mills in her book Evidence!

And, there is a Research Log.

In addition to your People list, you can add businesses to a Business list. And, there is a Building form that you can use to document house histories.

The program has been completely rewritten in Visual Basic .Net, but still uses a Microsoft Access database to store your data (and a Legacy Family Tree database is also used for storing data--there are actually two databases for your data now). Your data currently in your database will be completely imported into the appropriate places in the new program, although you may need to do some tweaking for some of the new forms. And, most significantly, there is a GEDCOM import. No more ASCII text imports. Clooz works directly with Legacy Family Tree. If you're already using the program, you'll be able to convert to using Legacy and Clooz together.

We are selling Clooz version 2.1 online here.  The program is $39.95. Users of 1.x versions can upgrade for $20, but you must be a registered user to qualify for this special price. Once you order, we will check our database to verify your registration. If you are not registered, you can

  • Send in your registration card

  • Provide a copy of your receipt (credit card statements are not sufficient, nor is a copy of the CD or jewel case)

  • Reinstall your version 1.23 and send in the registration information via e-mail, as requested during installation (only applies to version 1.23--this was not available in earlier versions)

  • Purchase the full version of Clooz.
