Your location stays in your browser. It is used only to sort this list and move the map, and it is never sent to TreeAlive.
Stops are put in the best order by straight-line distance. Google Maps handles the roads, starting from wherever you are. Copy trip link shares this exact trip with anyone.
Upload a family tree on TreeAlive and the same maps carry your own people. A family in the Shenandoah Valley in 1780, a Hessian who stayed on in Pennsylvania, a Loyalist line that left for Nova Scotia: each appears on the sheet from its own decade.
The war’s places and your family’s places, on one map from the same years.
Every marker and Register page opens a period-map viewer, and the road trip you build here opens in Google Maps from wherever you are.
Every marker page has print-ready QR artwork. A scan at the sign opens the marker's page on the period map, no app to install. TreeAlive does no printing or installation.
Marker page links are permanent: identifiers are never reassigned, so a code printed today resolves for good.
