Mapping

[nmeikle]

Would someone tell me if there is a way to create maps with our ancestors locations indicated on them.
Thank you.

Re: Mapping

Are you looking for something within Reunion or web-based? If you're looking for a web based solution you may want to look at MapBuilder:

I came across this when searching for something else so I don't know anything about it...

Have you geo-coded your places? If so, you can map them. See "map" in the Reunion Manual. If you haven't geo-coded them, see "Assigning Geo Codes for All Places" in the manual.

Outside of Reunion, you might want to look at Google Maps. See Lisa Louise Cook's website - http://lisalouisecooke.com - for ideas and videos. Search "mapping" and go down the page to near the bottom. You can also check for her videos on YouTube.

Hope this helps,
