Add posts and photos from facebook to personal timeline

Brandon Troy Porter

Besides adding memories to my ancestors I would like better ways to add to my personal timeline and memories. While I am not the best journal writer Facebook has alot of memories I wish to share with my family and children when I pass away. I would love the ability to save these posts and memories to my personal timeline & memories from facebook and other social platforms.

interesting ideas - but this post was made to the Community area - instead of the FamilyTree or Memories area.

How do I add an incident to my timeline?

FYI

IF, you are referring to a particular 'Incident' for an individual/person (and, not just an 'Incident', in the World, at large); THEN, such NEEDS to be "Recorded" on (ie. appear in) the "Person/Details" page/screen for the individual/person ( ie. In the, either, "Vitals"; or, "Other Information" Sections).

Not that this is much help/assistance ...

Here is a "Knowledge Article" in 'FamilySearch':

What is the timeline or map in Family Tree?

I hope this helps, somewhat.

You can upload photos from Facebook.

You can also share memories to Facebook or other social media platforms.

It might be easier to create some types of memories in Family Tree and then share them to your Facebook timeline.

Please be aware that all public memories in Family Tree are potentially visible, even memories about living persons.

I would discourage you from adding these photos directly from facebook if possible. Facebook does some horrible compression on photos to save space, that reduces the quality of your photos.

If you can, upload the original sources of these photos.
