  5. A new browser window will open to the top birth and death countries in Your family tree.
  6. This page uses Google Maps to show you where the most births and deaths in your family tree occurred. You can zoom, turn on terrain and navigate this map just like you would on maps.google.com.
  7. Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click the "Back to Family Dashboard" link.

  10. We recommend checking out the Migration Calculator for a cool map that shows how your ancestors migrated over time and the popular Relationship Calculator that can show you how you are related to someone famous.
  11. On the more practical side is the End of lines widget. This widget shows you where the lines in your tree end so you know who you can research next.
