Immediate family privilege

I have a big immediate family and we love to put memories in our tree for each other, unfortunately though we can’t see what photos have been added to our own names and we never will. Due to how the system is set up my children will get to see the memories my sibling, wife, children and parents put for me when I’m dead and gone but I will never get to see them. I feel that immediate family should have the option to see photos and memories others are putting in our trees for us.

    if you organize photos by FamilySearch Album - you can share that URL of the album with anyone -- and they can see any photos (unless they are marked as private) - - which is one reason I dont recommend most photos as being marked as "private"

    also you may consider posting photos of living siblings - under the record of the deceased parents. (assuming that the siblings dont mind that such photo, if marked as public, would be available to the public)

    You can easily share all memories of any ID you can see.

    Navigate to a memory tagged to that person, and click the down arrow beside their name

    Click “Show all Memories Tagged with This Name”

    a screen showing all memories linked to the Tag Name will open.

    This page URL will be in the form https://www.familysearch.org/photos/people/384####

    The URL can be shared & viewed even without signing in with a FamilySearch account. The names of living persons will be visible only to a user who can “see” that ID in their private space, but all public memories will be accessible.
