Pedigree Map

 

Google Maps integration allows you to draw Pedigree Maps like the image beside - the red bubble is the starting individuals birth place.  The blue bubbles show their parents, green for grandparents and yellow for great-grandparents.  You can also automatically plot the events in an individuals life.

 

If you are an account holder you can see a chart automatically drawn showing your relationship with the individual you are viewing.

 

While viewing the Facts and Events tab for any individual put a tick in the ‘Historical Facts‘ box to see national events that took place in that persons life time and their age at the time.  Change languages between US English and Australian English to see events form the relevant country.
