Creates a web page which uses Google Maps to display on a map the location of events (and attributes) in a person’s life – if you click 'Quick Vie . . .w Current Record' when you run it. Alternatively, if you click 'Select Records and Create Pages for All' it will create multiple web page files (.html files) for a set of people that you choose. In the latter case, you will need to select both the location to save the web page files to, and the individuals to map.
If Google does not recognise any particular places, you can solve this by using the “Map Geo-code Maintenance” plugin to specify an alternate name for each place (one that Google will recognise), or a specific longitude and latitude.

Search for individuals by specifying a given name, surname or both. A table of all matching individuals is returned with links to each record. All r . . .ecorded names for each person are checked. With women, both maiden names and husbands’ surnames are checked (unless the family record is flagged as ‘Unmarried Couple’ or ‘Never Married’).
