    David Newton said: It does. Just run a search for the relevant name. Key thi g you are missing is that it is one tree for eveyone, so that search is the same for everyone.

    Tom Huber said: David is correct. There is no "my tree" with FamilySearch, FamilyTree. It is all one tree that covers all of mankind, so any list is going to search and find everyone in the tree that fits your search parameter (the last name).

    The only way to sort out your branches of the tree is to download them to a local family tree management program. There are three that can do this, even with their free versions: Ancestral Quest, Legacy, and Roots Magic. They all feature name lists, which you can then sort by last name.
