New feature added

I'm so excited!! 

I added a new feature on my blog! 

Last night, I came across a map that someone had created for the birth place of their ancestors. I didn't realize you could do this! Of course it got me thinking and I quickly figured out how and created one of my own!

I have embedded on this blog a map for the birth and burial places of my ancestors!! It can be found on the right side under the blog list. It is best viewed on a desk top, however it works through your phone too. It 

is a little more difficult to navigate on a phone but can be used with both Apple and Android OS.

😍 The best part, it is completely interactive!! 😍

I have broken it down into the four branches of my grandparents. Want to see just Grandma Webb's side (Hymas), no problem, just uncheck the other layers!

Want to see just one particular ancestor? Again, no problem! Click on the icon next to their name and it will take you right there. 

Each ancestor has two pins. Birth and burial. 

The icon with the tree is the cemetery (always brown because, well dirt  see what I did there haha). 

The baby symbols are for the birth location. The baby icons will have various colors, depending on the branch the ancestor is part of.

The birth places will be pinned to the city. However, as an added bonus, the burial places will be pinned to where their burial site in the cemetery if you zoom in close enough. Husband/wife that are buried together are pinned together, likewise if they were born in the same city. 

Currently it has only the ancestors that I have blogged about. As I add more blog posts, the pins will increase. If a grave has been visited and an ancestor has been blogged about, but the spouse is not buried locally, I will still include them in the map. If they died on the plains, or in the process of emigrating to Utah, I will mark them with the following grey star icon.Otherwise, they will have the same cemetery icon pictured above. 

Additionally, the person's picture (if avail) is included with their birth place. A picture of their headstone is included with their burial place.

I am so stoked for this map! Let me know what you guys think!
