We understand that you would like to give someone else access to your Family Tree.
- Family Tree is a little different from other similar sites in that it is a single tree linked together in families, rather than a site that allows users to create and manage their own private trees. This difference means that everyone works together on the same data, allowing for the potential to connect every member of the human family.
- Family Tree compares records and sources in order to help you resolve mistakes or duplication in records. It also provides messaging and collaboration tools, as well as free expert phone support, to help you resolve errors.
- Family Tree draws from FamilySearch's enormous database to provide record hints. This makes it easier to link you and your ancestors to earlier generations.
- The Memories section can help foster deeper connections to ancestors. It provides a place where you can preserve and share photos and histories.
- We want Family Tree to be accessible to as many people as possible. You can view it through a variety of means, including on mobile devices, with the Family Tree and Memories apps, or in areas with low bandwidth, with the Family Tree Lite website.
Access to Family Tree is free. Therefore the best solution is to have your family member create their own account and you will share the common deceased ancestors.
Family Tree protects the privacy of living people by putting their records in the contributor's private space and restricting who can see the private space. Therefore your relative will have to create a record for the living persons to bridge those generations to get to the deceased persons you share.

Some more complete parts of Family Tree have Discovery Pages: those are on the open web where search engines can find them. Have you tried it? Notice the "en" in the URL; pages can be viewed in other languages.
