Shezhire online: seven generations of your family in a couple of minutes
A shezhire is the Kazakh family genealogy, and Kazakhs traditionally know their seven ancestors (zheti ata); Kyrgyz have the same custom, “jeti ata”. Enter the names, choose a design, and the site builds a Kazakh family tree, a poster for printing or a family book. A neural network draws the background in your style.
Free preview, card payment, files right after payment. From 2,990 ₸ (Kazakhstani tenge).
Shezhire
Example. The names are made up
Ancestors are remembered as long as they are talked about
Ask a grandchild what their father’s great-grandfather was called. Often there is no answer, and those who remember grow fewer every year.
A shezhire turns spoken stories into something you can hang on a wall, give for a birthday or a toi (family celebration) and pass on to your children. One tree with seven names and seven stories.
Three formats: from an image to a book
The price is fixed. Files download right after payment, name corrections are free.
Digital family tree
An image for your phone and an A4 PDF. Seven generations in a direct line, with a background in the chosen style. You can send it to relatives in a messenger.
Poster A2 for printing
A 42 × 59.4 cm file for a photo lab or print shop, ready for a frame. The digital tree is included.
Family book (PDF)
A cover, the tree and a page for every ancestor: photo, years, place and a story from your family’s memories. The poster and the digital tree are included.

How it works
Enter the names
You and your ancestors in the paternal line, as many as you know. For the book, add years, places, photos and what the elders remember.
Choose a style
Four designs and a landscape of your home region. The preview with a watermark is visible at once.
Pay by card
The invoice is issued automatically, payment goes through Robokassa.
Download your files
A neural network draws a unique background, and a couple of minutes later the files are ready on the order page.
Only what you know
We do not invent ancestors. You write the names, years and places. The neural network draws the background and turns your stories into flowing text, but adds no facts of its own.
If only a name is known about someone, their page keeps blank lines for your own entry. An invented story in a family book is worse than an empty line.
Why choose us
A photo lab will print any layout but will not build one: how a seven-generation tree is arranged, who stands where. Genealogy agencies search archives for ancestors, which is a different job at a different price. We are for people who already know the names from their elders and want to keep them beautifully, quickly and without mistakes.
We do not invent ancestors
Only what you know goes into the tree and the book. If all you know about an ancestor is the name, the space for a story stays blank.
Preview before you pay
Enter the names and see your tree in the chosen style at once. You pay only when you like it.
Ready in a couple of minutes
No managers, no queue: after payment a neural network draws the background and the files download on the same page.
Kazakh design
The qoshqar muiiz (ram’s horn) ornament, a landscape of your region and names with Kazakh and Kyrgyz letters.
One price, no extras
2,990, 4,990 or 9,990 ₸ (Kazakhstani tenge). Name corrections after payment are free: fix and download again.
From any country
Order online, the files arrive at once, and you can print the poster and the book in your own city.
Try it in a minute
Enter the names and the tree redraws. You can add years after a comma. The names carry over to your order, so you will not have to type them twice.
Shezhire
Pale frames: an example until you enter a name
A page for every ancestor
This is how the family book is laid out: a photo, years, place and a story written from the elders’ memories.
A photograph goes here
Great-grandfather, 3rd generation
Bekzat
The ancestor’s story will appear here: your own words, written down from the elders’ memories. If only the name is known, the page stays blank and you can finish it yourself.
Example. The name is made up

ReadQuestions
How much does a shezhire family tree cost?
The digital tree costs 2,990 ₸, the A2 poster for printing 4,990 ₸ and the family book in PDF 9,990 ₸ (₸ is the Kazakhstani tenge, KZT). The price is fixed, with no extras: the poster includes the digital tree, and the book includes both the poster and the digital tree.
How long does it take?
A couple of minutes after payment. The neural network draws the background in about a minute, the book texts take about as long, and you can download the files right away on the order page. There are no managers and no queue.
What if I do not know all seven ancestors?
Order with the ones you know: the empty places on the tree stay as neat dotted frames. When you have asked the elders, add the names through the same order link and download the files again, for free. How to collect the information is explained in the article “How to build your family’s shezhire”.
What does the neural network do?
The neural network draws a unique background in the style you chose, with a landscape of your region, and for the book it turns your notes into flowing text. The site itself places the names on the tree, so the Kazakh and Kyrgyz letters ә, ғ, қ, ң, ө, ұ, ү, і are always written exactly. If there are no notes about an ancestor, the neural network writes nothing about him: the page keeps blank lines for your own entry.
Where can I print the poster or the book?
At any photo lab or print shop in your city: the files are already the right size, the A2 poster (42 × 59.4 cm) and the A4 book. We do not print or deliver ourselves, which is why an order works in any country.
Can I order from Kyrgyzstan or from abroad?
Yes. The order is entirely online, the files download at once, and you can print the poster or the book in your own city. Payment is by card through Robokassa.
