I'm still negotiating 'our new site'. Was wondering if the Names Summary (for those with shared trees) had been re-instated.

Isn't it a good job that the paying members are here to help each other find their way around this new system..........if we relied on GR for guidance, no-one would be able to use the site.............

You might also want to try Tree Searches tab above, which gives you tree options on the left hand of the scree.

Surname Summary is the same as My Tree Matches, but View People in Your tree brings up a brand new screen which allows you to select one of your names, then automatically look for possible matches across the entire database.

Sorry folks, I didn't explain myself properly. Some years ago, if you were given access to another member's tree, you could view a list of 'their' names as well as viewing the actual tree It made it much easier and quicker to find a particular person and the family connection in that tree.
