Editing and Viewing Other Relationships and People on Your Family Tree

From the TREE VIEW, any person has the following options when you click on them: View Profile, View Tree, Quick Edit, Add Family, Search Records, Stories, and Media.

Navigating your Other People

We’ll go over each part of this process below…

View Profile

VIEW brings up the DETAILS page about the person, including personal info, family, and all life events. 

View Tree

VIEW TREE allows you to quickly change the HOME person of the tree. You’ll notice the background of the person changed from WHITE to BLACK to indicate they are now the HOME person.

Quick Edit

QUICK EDIT allows you to add, edit, and delete basic information about the person.

Add Family

+ ADD FAMILY gives you a list of optional relatives to add to the person.

Search Records

SEARCH RECORDS uses the information entered about the HOME person and searches the collection of HISTORICAL RECORDS at Storied.

Stories

STORIES takes you to the HOME person’s STORIES page with all the stories that include them. 

Media

MEDIA takes you to the HOME person’s MEDIA page, where all media that has been uploaded for them can be found.

Frequently asked questions

Can I add people from the tree view to my tree?

Yes, as long as you are adding someone “attached” to someone on your tree already.

How can I switch to a different family tree from the tree view?

It’s easy! At the top left corner of your tree view is a drop-down menu with your family trees. Select the one you want to view.

Not all of my people are showing on my family tree view. Where are they?

It’s likely you have too many people to see all of them on the tree view. If you have past generations not showing, simply click on the arrows at the right of an ancestor’s name to view older generations.
