Genoom Blog

The External Search feature is designed to help you find possible relatives outside of your family network that may already be using Genoom.  With external search you can do a search using the person’s last name, first name, place and date of birth.

If  you do a search and no results show, that means there are no family members outside of your family network using Genoom.  However, if you do happen to find a relative in the external search results, you can then request to have your trees joined.

Using the List View is a great way to learn a lot of information about your family network.  In particular, the List View is an easy way to help you find out who in your network still has not been invited or registered on Genoom.

To find out which one of your relatives still need to be invited to your network, follow the following steps:

1) Go to your List View (click on the image below to view large size)

2) Select “Pending to be invited” from the drop box (click on the image below to view large size)

3) Click on Invite or Re-invite to send your relative an invitation (click on the image below to view large size)

Remember, you can also invite relatives from within your family tree by clicking on Invite on the individual data cards of each person.
