This used to be the MOST WONDERFUL extension possible -- made matching trees quite easy. But it hasn't worked for a couple of years. Please, author of it, fix it if you can !!!! I'd be willing to pay to have it fixed as it used to be great!!!

Will not open a file? Has something changed? Love this app and use it all the time

Indispensable. The only problem is that I wasted months looking at family trees on familytreedna before I found it.

Even if all this tool could do was to extract the textual content from a tree at FTDNA, I would still find it indispensable. But the fact that it can follow the arrows on the right-hand side of the ancstor table and extract additional, concealed ancestors in earlier generations makes it not only a huge time-saver but something that could save a researcher costly and embarrassing mistakes.

Great extension that is especially useful with Genome Mate Pro. I'd love to request seeing the extension expanded to also convert GedMatch linked trees and the WikiTree trees linked from GedMatch as well. Being able to do this with AncestryDNA pedigree trees or just any tree on Ancestry, even, would also be very helpful as would, I would imagine, the new pedigree trees viewable on MyHeritage's DNA matches.

Great app. Use it regularly with familytreedna trees.

Would be fantastic if it worked with Ancestry DNA Match pedigree trees.

Love how this extension lets you see the ahnetafel of a person's family tree, so very helpful!

This makes the useless family trees on ftdna useful. I haven't been talking about it because I didn't know about it! Thanks to reviewer Karen Anne Eck, I do and will be talking about it going forward! And now that the information can be usable I might just include genealogy for the kits I maintain over at ftdna. Before, I just did the lists of surnames.

Many thanks to the developer AND to those who put the word out about this great tool!

This is an awesome little tool! I have long been harping on the lack of an easy way to find locations in a family tree, as they are so much more important to the search for a Common Ancestor than surnames, which rarely are a match in time and place. No one in genetic genealogy has been talking about this tool in public web spaces since it's inception a year and half ago - well, I've put the word out and now they will be! Can something be made to work like this with Ancestry DNA and My Heritage? TEN STARS!

Could be good, but 23andMe now host your family tree elsewhere, so this extension doesn't currently work.

Another great add-on from neanderling, thank you, I would be lost without this one! The only thing I could wish for, is to be able to save it as a 'functioning' complete webpage.
