As someone with French Canadian roots I am curious why you do not list relationships to famous French Canadians. Is there another site that caters to this category?

    Welcome to the "Community.FamilySearch" Forum.

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

    Please explain what you mean by "... why you do not list relationships to famous French Canadians ...".

    What do you mean by "... list relationships to famous ..."?

    "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch' DOES NOT specifically "... list relationships to famous ..." people.

    Those "Relationships" will ONLY exist if your "Ancestral" Lines contain such famous people.

    There is another programme that you can use to 'see' in there are any, famous people; or, people of note, in your "Ancestral" Lines in "Family Tree" of 'FamilySearch'.

    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 "RelativeFinder"

    "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.
