Package: tidygedcom Type: Package Title: Read and Tidy 'GEDCOM' Genealogy Files Version: 0.2.0 Authors@R: c( person("S. Mason", "Garrison", , "garrissm@wfu.edu", role = c("aut", "cre", "cph"), comment = c(ORCID = "0000-0002-4804-6003")), person("Christian", "Waugh", , "waughce@wfu.edu", role = c("aut", "dtc"), comment = c(ORCID = "0000-0002-7871-5845")) ) Description: Reads and parses 'GEDCOM' (Genealogical Data Communication) files, the standard interchange format exported by genealogical software, and converts them into tidy data frames. Individuals, families, life events, and parent-child links are extracted into rectangular structures suitable for pedigree and kinship analysis. Additional helpers summarize file contents, convert place coordinates, and repair malformed records. Wikipedia family tree templates can be parsed into the same tidy structure. For a discussion of these and related data structures see [Hunter et al. (2026) ].
