I added people to my family tree. When my mom is logged in to her Family Search account, she searches for some of those people, but they don't appear in the search results. When will my contributions to Family Search be findable by other users?

Read my response to your previous 'Question' ...

.

My mother and my niece have joined Family Search and want to collaborate in expanding our family tree. How can they build on the tree I have already started? I.e., how can people collaborate on Family Search?

.

Your Mother (and, Other extended family members), with her (and, their) own 'FamilySearch' Account (Accounts), will NOT be able to 'see' the "Living" individuals/persons in the "Private Spaces" of YOUR 'FamilySearch' Account (and, 'vice versa')

.

We (that is ALL of us) can ONLY 'see' the "Deceased" individuals/person in "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch'.

.

We (that is ALL of us) CANNOT 'see' the "Living" individuals/persons in "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch', in the "Private Spaces" of OTHER Users/Patrons - NOT even IMMEDIATE Family members.

.

Again, read my response to your previous 'Question' ... that should explain things.

As @Brett .​ mentioned, If she is trying to see any living relatives that you have added, she will not be able to see them, she will need to add them herself. However, if it is deceased family members she is having trouble finding, perhaps You can share the PID info with her so you may be able to figure out where the confusion is? I hope this was helpful

Your question was:

"When will my contributions to Family Search be findable by other users?"

 

The answer is:

"When you mark them as deceased"

Living people are intentionally kept private.

Otherwise YOUR and MY personal info - would be out there in the hands of people we dont it in.

be thankful - its not searchable.
