Family members not showing up on my tree

ChristopherHovsepian · August 10, 2021

I added my brother and uncle, but they are not showing up when I click on "Tree." My brother shows up under children if I click on one of my parents, and select person, but if I go back to tree he is not there.

Is this a settings thing, or does the site only allow direct decendents? How do I get him to show up on the tree?

In the first one, my brother is listed, but in tree view he is not there

Ah Ha ...

I 'see' the problem/issue ...

You are using the "Portrait" ('Pedigree') View ...

[ NOT may favorite view ... ]

NO ... you can OLNY 'see', the Children, in that ("Portrait") View, for a Couple, when you select either Parent; and, then, select 'Tree', for that particular Parent - that Parent is then moved towards the 'Bottom' of the page/screen; where, ALL the Children will then appear below the Parents.

I hope this helps.

ps: I prefer the "Landscape" ('Pedigree') View.

pps: Whereas, some prefer the, "Fan Chart"; or, "Descendancy", ('Pedigree') Views.

Welcome to the "Community.FamilySearch" Forum.

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

Question:

When you 'say', "...but they are not showing up when I click on "Tree ...", do you mean the "Pedigree" View?

IF, that is the case; THEN, in the "Landscape" ('Pedigree') View, for example, you need to select that 'downward' pointing 'Arrowhead', to 'see' any associated "Children" for a "Couple".

A Couple ... where their Children, are NO initially displayed ...
