Distribution 'Heat' Map

Thanks to the continuing excellent work of Tim Forsythe and his ‘Adam: The GEDCOM Family Tree Builder‘ web service, a population density map based on all the locations in the tree database, is now available to view. This is presented as a heat map and is fully interactive, allowing you to zoom in, move around, and display further details. Further information here.

Tree Data Update (June 2013)

The tree data has been updated. The June 2013 update contains various corrections and amendments, as well as around 150 additional individuals, and around 50 additional families. For a list of the most recent changes, please see the updates page.

There are also a couple of new features in this update.  It is now possible to view an ancestors list (by generation) for each person in the tree. This can be accessed from the ‘Ancestors List’ tab on the persons profile page. This update also adds in line client-side Google Maps on all Location pages.  Client-side Google Maps are those loaded at the time of page viewing. When you click on any location (be it an address, place, country etc) a map will automatically be loaded, centred on the selected location. You can zoom in or out, and move the map around.
