It is to copy the number associated with the person you are looking at. It's use is to copy the ID if you have a question about the ancestor or you need to put that person onto another person like a wife or husband.In Family Tree, you can use the ID number to:
- Find records of deceased people.
- Find records of living people, if you added them. The records of living people are only searchable to those who have added them.
- Find the record of a deleted person and restore it if necessary.
- Link a deceased individual into a family tree.
- Merge records by ID number if you know the ID number of a duplicate that the system did not find. Both records must show as deceased.
