In tracing a family tree I can see where Princess Margaret is listed under King George VI and Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, but not the current Queen Elizabeth or her descendants. I was unable to locate another record to link. Does anyone know why this would be?

Thanks!

    G'Day

    I am just another 'lowly' User/Patron ...

    Simple 'Answer':

    You will NOT 'see' "Queen Elizabeth II" or her descendants, in "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch' ...

    As, the Queen and her descendants, are STILL "Living" ...

    You primarily ONLY ever 'see' "Deceased" individuals/persons in "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch'.

    The ONLY time you 'see' "Living" individuals/persons in "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch' is ...

    If YOU created them; as, they reside in your "Private Spaces" ...

    NO User/Patron can 'see' the "Living" individuals/persons in "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch' that have been created by ANOTHER User/Patron.

    I hope this helps.

    ps: By the way, "Queen Elizabeth II" is my x12 Cousin.

    G'Day again

    By the way ...

    As an aside ...

    IF, you are related to the "Queen Elizabeth II"; THEN, one way to 'see' how you are related to that Royal lineage, is by using (BYU) "RelativeFinder".

    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"

    https://www.relativefinder.org/#/main

    "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 might help, somewhat.
