    highlight birth place pins

    In Ancestor map, when you mouse over a name on the list, the associated birthplace pin on the map turns red.

    Ancestor Timeline view improvements

    On ancestor map, legend gets limited to two items (birth/death), leaving the user not knowing what the red and orange items indicate--get the full legend to display.

    When you pick a spot on the sliding timeline, a year appears to the right. Why not show the range rather than just a single year (... more

    make navigating on my ancestors map easier

    You need to preserve the state of the timeline and the map, and return me to my most recent view.

    When I am looking at my ancestors map, and I change the date and zoom in on the map, and then click on a famous person, and then close that window, it always takes me back to the default view. But ... more

    allow coordinates to be entered when mapping something.

    It is difficult to accurately locate places and events without being able to enter coordinates.
