The technique of \textit{T. Beyer} and \textit{S. M. Hedetniemi} [SIAM J. Comput. 9, 706-712 (1980; Zbl 0453.05020)] for generating all rooted trees of size n by applying a successor function on canonical level sequences is extended to generate all free (unrooted) trees. A primary sequence is defined among all the canonical level sequences belonging to isomorphic trees by rooting at a lexicographically first central node. The successor function is adapted to these sequences. The algorithm uses O(n) space and O(n) average time. Its pseudocode is given.
