Leaderboards

Proved, link by link

Points come only from records our readers have read and matched to a link in your tree. Editing a tree earns nothing. The boards show usernames only, never a name from anyone's tree.

How points work

  • A link proved by a record we read: 10 points if the child was born before 1700, 5 in the 1700s, 3 in the 1800s, 1 from 1900.
  • A copy or an index earns nothing. A record that shows a link is wrong earns 1 point for an honest correction.
  • Milestones: an unbroken proved line to an ancestor born before 1700, 25; all 16 great-great-grandparents proved, 25; a famous connection or a patriot candidate whose whole path is proved, 15 each (up to three of each).
  • Uploading the record yourself, free, earns exactly the same points as a paid record search.
