A few days ago, John Steed updated Brother’s Keeper 7.5 to version 7.5.15 (31 Mar 2024). This update consists mainly of bug fixes, with a change to the Ancestor Chart screen (it will now display places resided versus only doing it when printed out before). Brother’s Keeper is a Windows-based genealogy application that supports Windows 98 through Windows 11.
Current users can download the update here: Brother’s Keeper version 7.5 (bkwin.org)

Changes in Brother’s Keeper 7.5.15 (BKWin.org/changes7.htm)
| New: Option to show program version sub number on Welcome screen. To turn on option, pick File, Options, it is at the bottom of the Dates tab. |
| Changed: On Ancestor Chart screen, it will display Resided place on screen (before it would only show dates on screen and both dates and location on printout.) |
| Fixed: If you did Compute Relationship (from Edit) then closed it and picked File, Stop (from Edit) it would sometimes wrongly ask again for a person name or number. |
| Fixed: FIX for spouse on Descendant Report so does not show spouse birthplace if option set for details excluded. |
| Fixed: on Indented report, if person had a not entered or blank spouse (person had children but no spouse) then it would duplicate the Find A Grave, Address, Todo, and Flag information for the descendant that had the blank spouse. |
| Fixed: Fixed a couple other small things. |
| Note: If Tree print to PDF with huge paper, an error can occur if option for Continuous Paper is on. That option should not be on for PDF output. |
