Family tree burial map

Have the option to choose how many generations back, generate a map of where everyone is buried. It would be faster to do multi generations in a click, vs. clicking on every single person in family tree.

If someone happens to be in the area while traveling or etc., they could stop at the location of burial.

Thank you for your time,

    You can already do something similar with the FamilySearch app. There is a menu option called "Map My Ancestors". It includes 6 generations of ancestors including their children.

    @A R Engum

    If the burial place name is in the standardized place name list, the location should come up on the map, as long as that place name has the standardized place name chosen. The article link below may be useful.

    You may wish to have it added to the list by using the information in the article below:
