The clear, simple interface of this free site makes it an excellent example of its kind. Registered users submit their family histories as GEDCOM files. The resulting 'Global Tree' index can be easily and flexibly searched. When you view the results of the search, the simple key shows you whether an individual has descendants within the database, whether there are notes on the individual, and whether the sources of the information are cited.


SPECIAL FEATURES


SmartMatching One of the major incentives for submitting your tree is the facility that runs a detailed search on every individual in your file, and to see where your names match up with individuals in other people's files.


Clubs When you run a search on a surname, the results alert to you whether there is a surname club of people who are also interested in that name.


Global Tree allows you to adminster your uploaded GEDCOM files, by updating or deleting them online.


Cliff Shaw, who developed first Gen Forum and now Gen Circles, has just launched a new software product called Family Tree Legends, offering automatic online back-up, GEDCOM publishing with instant updates and Smart Matching as standard.
