Looking ahead ... is there any plan to include place geocoding in the soon-to-be-released version 5 of Family Historian? Kath

Kath, the FH website says V5 includes: [...] - support for plug-ins ... - Integrated access to a new plug-ins store [including] a new mapping tool ..." [...] So my interpretation is yes, albeit via a plug-in rather than natively. But welcome nonetheless. Presumably there could eventually be a range of different mapping/geocoding plug-ins to choose from, if folks decide to write them. See <http://www.family-historian.co.uk/features/whats-new/whats-new-in-5> http://www.family-historian.co.uk/features/whats-new/whats-new-in-5 for more.

Kath, On the Family Historian web site under What's New in Version 5 at http://www.family-historian.co.uk/features/whats-new/whats-new-in-5 it says: "Integrated access to a new Plugin Store, with numerous free plugins adding even more features - such as a new mapping tool - and more being added all the time" Just to whet your appetite, the free plugin mapping tool does offer Google Maps Geocoding of any of your GEDCOM Place &/or Address fields, or any other location.
