RELATIONSHIP TOOL - Compare Two Individuals Against Each Other

Jamison Pitcher

Hello All! First post.

I've had fun using the relationship tool. Customer service asked me to put my idea here.

I'd like to suggest the ability to compare two other individuals in a TREE against each other, such as by their ID Number.

It could be placed near the MERGE BY ID option, but say something like, RELATIONSHIP BY ID.

That would be very fun and helpful.

Thanks! :)

Relative Finder, a FamilySearch partner, already provides this feature. https://relativefinder.org/#/two-deceased

FYI

As 'Amy' has already proffered ...

Although, there is NO direct link/connection in "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch' ...

[ Which, personally, I would LOVE there to be ... ]

(BYU) "RelativeFinder" is the go ...

IF, you have NOT already; THEN, you could try ...

Can I humbly suggest that a place where you should be able to 'See' your "Relationship" with, "Famous People"; and, many, "Others"; PLUS, you can ALSO "Print" the connections/links between you and them is through (BYU) "RelativeFinder" ...

And, it is simple, just a matter of "Signing In", with the credentials of your 'FamilySearch' Account; accepting the "Conditions"; and, the "Connection" between "FamilySearch' and (BYU) "RelativeFinder"; which, then becomes a "Partner" Account, that is "Connect" to 'FamilySearch.

(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.

Here is direct link to "RelativeFibder"

"RelativeFinder" has MANY 'Bells and Whistles', that you might find useful.

Apart from "Famous People" and "Others" ...

(BYU) "RelativeFinder" has some interesting options ...

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 two (x2) "Deceased" individuals/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'.

Magic

Enjoy

Good Luck

I hope this helps.
