The homepage includes a list of people the site is built for. Click a person’s name to view the tree from their point of view.
My tree
View the tree from the point of view of the selected root person. When browsing the tree, any relationships are described relative to the selected root person. The homepage for a person includes some stats about the tree and a summary of their ancestors and descendants.
People
Search for people in the tree by name. Names can be filtered and sorted.
Person
A person’s page shows their names and birth/death years, their age, their relationship to the selected root person, and includes a set of tabs:
Profile
View a person’s details, including their parents, siblings, relationships and children. This page includes a filterable list of life events, a map of associated places, and a list of ancestors and descendants.
The biographical information section also includes any external links associated with the person, starting with their Ancestry.com and findagrave.com links if available. Other links can be added in GRAMPS.
Ancestors
An interactive tree view of a person’s ancestors. Navigate between people in the tree view by clicking on each person.
Descendants
An interactive tree view of a person’s descendants. Navigate between people in the tree view by clicking on each person.
Pictures
A collection of images associated with the person and their events. Click an image to view it full size.
Places
View a list of places associated with events in the tree, and a map of those places. Click on a place name to view the events associated with that place, search the people involved, and filter by event type. Note places can be enclosed by other places, for example a town can be enclosed by a county, which is enclosed by a country.
Events on a place’s page show the same icons as the events list — a photo icon for events with images, a link to Find a Grave for burial events, and tag icons for events marked interesting or conflicting.
Note
Places require latitude and longitude coordinates to be displayed on the map. If a place does not have coordinates, it will not be displayed on the map. You can add coordinates to a place in GRAMPS, or using the grgr add-place command.
