Brother's Keeper is a “shareware” program, meaning that it can be shared and tried out at no cost. The GRANDMA 7 CD can be purchased with either registered or unregistered versions of Brother’s Keeper. If you purchased a registered version, the Brother’s Keeper user’s manual (with registration number and password on the inside front cover) was included with your CD. If you purchased an unregistered version, we encourage you to register your copy by paying a $45 US registration fee to John Steed, the creator of Brother’s Keeper. For information on how to register your copy of Brother's Keeper, select Help/How to Register from the main Brother's Keeper screen.
If you decide to use GRANDMA with a genealogy program other than Brother's Keeper, or if you already own a registered copy of Brother's Keeper, you do not need to register the copy included on the CD.
Most features of Brother's Keeper (and all of the important ones) work normally whether or not you register your copy. Nonetheless, we strongly encourage you to pay the registration fee. You will receive a printed Brother's Keeper manual with registration number and password when you register.
The Brother's Keeper program on this CD is the most recent version available at the time the CD was produced. Newer versions may subsequently have become available. These updates are available on the Brother's Keeper website.
