Tree matches

When you are viewing your tree we offer you tree matches. We match the details of the relation you are viewing with other trees on the site. This is a quick and easy way to find matching names.

If we've been able to find tree matches for a relation, you'll see a purple star in their name box on your tree with the number of matches we've found. Click on the star and you'll be able to view the matches. You can then contact the member and share your information.
