How to use this program

There are two main ways to view information: by individual and by family. You don't ever really choose one or the other; you can jump from one to the other as you look around. Individual records contain the information about a person, and can usually be reached by clicking on the name of a person or else their record number which will look like I345. While in an individual record you can select different views, such as Tree (to see a descendancy tree), Media (to see pictures), and Close Relatives (to see relatives of older and newer generations). The Close Relatives screen is a great way to pick your way from one person to the next.

You can click on family links (looking like F42) to better see the relationships between people.

One of the most important questions this program can answer is, "How am I related to this person?" It's easy to find out as long as you are logged in: just find that other person, and from their individual record look at the "Options for Individual" menu. Under Charts you will see Relationship Chart which will be pretty self-explanatory.

However if you are not logged in, you will not be able to view the records of living people, which makes it difficult to see your own record and therefore the relationship path to yourself will not be available. Contact the administrator to get login credentials.
