Can somebody please tell me how to access a tree for which I have been given owners permission. Thanks Keith

At the top of this page select heading Family Tree then from drop down list select my tree. At the top of your tree under your name you can select view other trees, and then select trees shared with me. Hope that helps.

OR:

You must have had a message from the tree owner allowing you access to the tree. On that message there will be "Access to their tree" "View". Click on "View"

OR

Hover the cursor over where it says "messages"; click on "contacts"; then click on "view" next to the name of the tree owner. ;-)
