As building your online family tree is ultimately a collective effort, with other family members pitching in and adding branches, it can get very large, very fast. Therefore, it may not always be possible to keep track of everyone's important dates using Outlook or Google Calendar. So we created a utility which does this for you!

When viewing your family tree, notice that the top of the page contains the following links:   Family Tree — for the graphical overview of your heritage   New Postings — displays a summary of new writings in your ancestors biographies   New Photos — shows the most recent images added to family biographies   Important Dates — lists the birthdays, anniversaries, baptism dates, etc from your family   Family List — a list of all the people in your tree   Help — easy to follow instructions for common questions and challenges

Simply click on "Important Dates" when you are logged onto your biography and viewing your family tree — there you will see the birthdays, wedding anniversaries and other important dates from everyone in your tree. Did you know that you have the same birthday as your great, great, great, great, great grandfather? Did you know that you got married on the exact same day as your favorite uncle?

Plus, we will send you an email reminder each time a closely related living family member's important date approaches. Yet another benefit of Web Biographies unique biography service!
