Google Maps multiple people in one location

Post by RBH425 » 10 Jul 2016 18:01

I really like the FH mapping feature, but am not quite certain how to share it with others other than in jpeg format.
So, I exported my birth data with queries (to avoid spouses) with lat/long to cvs format, opened with excel, cleaned up the file a bit, and imported into google maps. I forgot about the 2,000 row limitation; so it took 3 layers, but worked very well.

However, in google maps I can only see one person per location. Many times there are 10-20 people born at that location or more. Does anyone know how to view this?
My apologies if this isn't a true FH question, but I am finding the export to google maps to be interactive and fascinating.. and I can share the map with others.

thank you,
Robin

Yes Mike, thank you. That is what I used for the import and it worked amazingly well. Google maps itself I think is the issue. I have one marker in Salem, MA... when 20 or more people were born there. I was expecting to see a list of people born at that location, but only see one person.
