I’m delighted to share that we’ve just added country coding for family trees: a free new feature to help you better visualize your family history. Country coding displays country flags for individuals in your tree based on key life events, instantly transforming your family tree into a visual map of your origins.
Country coding assigns flags based on the locations already entered in your tree. By default, it uses birth and baptism places, with the option to switch to death and burial places instead. If the last word of a person’s birthplace is a recognized present-day country, that country’s flag is shown. If the last word of the place doesn’t include a country, MyHeritage uses geolocation to determine which country that place is in today.
At a glance, country coding makes it easy to spot migration patterns, highlight diverse origins, and even identify missing places you may want to add. It’s available in all family tree views (Family, Pedigree, Fan, and List) on the MyHeritage website on desktop.
