There have been several major updates to Genealogy Assistant for Google Chrome over the past few weeks. If you’re not familiar with it, Genealogy Assistant is a Chrome browser extension (full video at the bottom) that adds many new and/or custom features to Ancestry, MyHeritage, and FamilySearch websites and allows you to customize those genealogy services’ pages when using the extension.
It adds everything from screenshot tools to DNA tools for Ancestry and MyHeritage, to research tools.
For a full list of new features and fixes, see the table below (and it’s a lot of new features).
Genealogy Assistant for Google Chrome (Genea.ca)
It’s free during a 7-day trial, and then $1.99 per month or $15.99 per year (USD), but the developer has given me a code you can use for three free months: “GENEALOGYSOFTWARE“
