Ancestry Synchronization

Manages a process whereby an extract of the Family Historian project is kept synchronized with Ancestry in order to support hint generation.

Updating an Ancestry tree via a new GEDCOM file usually resets the record of which hints have been processed. However, if the update is carried out via an intermediate application that synchronizes with Ancestry, the hint history is fully preserved between updates.

Note that a full version of RootsMagic 7 or later is required to use this plugin (not the free Essentials demo versions). A full description of the process is described in the plugin help files.

This latest version of the plugin includes tools for auditing your Ancestry tree against the master Family Historian version to check for errors and inconsistencies, along with an improved user interface and enhanced reporting.
