What problem does Add All People Link to Matches Trees solve?
When a DNA match has a public tree, the easiest way to find a surname or place you recognize is to open the List of all people view. Ancestry only gives you a Tree link though, so you always land in the graphical tree first and then have to click through to the list view from there. Add All People Link to Matches Trees adds a direct List of all people link beside every match’s tree link.
How does Add All People Link to Matches Trees work?
Wherever Ancestry shows a match’s tree link, a new List of all people link is added next to it. Clicking the link opens that match’s tree straight to the List of all people view, where you can search by surname, sort by birth year, and scan hundreds of people at once. The link appears on the match list, shared matches list, and individual match page.
How do I use Add All People Link to Matches Trees?
- Ensure Add All People Link to Matches Trees is enabled in the Genealogy Assistant pop-up panel.
- Open your AncestryDNA match list or any shared matches list.
- Click List of all people next to any match’s tree link. The tree opens directly in list view.
