It would be amazing to be able to enter 2 ID numbers and see how those two people are related. There have been times when I've come up to a brick wall ancestor who I believe may be related to other certain individuals - who are distant cousins of sorts. Trying to find those connections as I search through Family Tree can be very time-consuming and not always fruitful. Having a quick search option to compare the relationships between people, other than just myself, would be massively helpful with research-and is not something I've seen offered on other sites.

    'FamilySearch' DOES NOT need to include such; as, such are ALREADY available on "Partner" websites (ie. "Partners" with 'FamilySearch').

    [ 'FamilySearch' DOES NOT need to 'reinvent the wheel' ... ]

    .

    This may help with your research ...

    IF, you have not already; THEN, ...

    You can always try (BYU) "RelativeFinder".

    .

    (BYU) "RelativeFinder" digs (pun intended) a lot DEEPER in "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch', than 'FamilySearch' does.

    .

    (BYU) "RelativeFinder" is one of the "Third Party" Applications that "Certified" to work with "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch'.

    .

    BYU = Brigham Young University, in Provo, Utah, USA (ie. the Church University).

    .

    From the "Family History Technology Laboratory", of the "Computer Science" Department.

    There is an option to see if there is a 'Connection' between yourself and a "Deceased" individual/person in "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch'.

    There is an option to see if there is a 'Connection' between ("Living" - Users/Patrons) Friends in "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch'.
