When researching new lines or documenting existing ones, I often save hundreds of records to my family tree in a single session. Using Ancestry’s text transcriptions in the record viewer allows me to quickly verify that a document matches the person I’m researching, and access suggested records recommended by Ancestry. To streamline this process and save valuable time, I developed a tool that automatically fills in the person’s name from the record you’re viewing into the appropriate box in the ‘Save to someone in your tree’ dialog box.
When you activate Text Records Name Autofill, as soon as you click the “Save to someone in your tree” button in the text transcription portion of Ancestry’s record viewer, it will automatically fill in the name of the person on the record to the name field within the pop-up window.
Text Records Name Autofill is available in Genea Research Tools for Google Chrome, it can be installed in one click from the Chrome Web Store: Click here to install Genea Research Tools from the Chrome Web Store
