A YourRoots Public Tree Person is a tree person based on aggregated data from family trees uploaded to the YourRoots network.

Using our proprietary algorithm and AI tools, we evaluate Public Tree Person matching based on name, birth date/location, death date/location, and parents/descendants matching.
