In the FamilySearch Family Tree, information about deceased ancestors is shared publicly, while the information recorded about living people was previously kept strictly private to the user who added that living relative. An update was recently released to the FamilySearch Family Tree and Family Groups where users can now share, add to, and modify information about living family members in a secure, shared Family Group Tree.
