TribalPages is happy to announce the general availability of our new Connections Tool.

This new feature provides a simple and automated way to find new connections to other TribalPages sites.

Simply click on the "Connections" menu item (under Home) and find hundreds, even thousands of your family members that are also entered into other sites in the TribalPages Search Database. Our new Connections Tool walks through your site, checking each family member's name, birth, and death dates against millions of other entries, finding the best matches and giving you immediate contact information to help you find your fellow family historians.

As you can see in the image to the right, our Royal Family site has dozens of connections to various sites here on TribalPages. The main list shows the number of matches in the site, along with the site name.

Clicking through, you get a list of matching names, as well as an easy way to contact the webmaster of the other sites.

The tool is limited to sites that have chosen to be included in our search engine, and the complete results are only available to Standard or Premium members (and it shows a subset of the information available through Search). However, since it's automatic and starts with the data you've already entered, it's a great way to leverage your work and get a jump start on your family search.

We hope you enjoy our latest effort to help you find your ancestors, and share your family history, and we look forward to your Feedback
