I have a cousins son in South Africa who knows nothing of the family history I would like to pay for a year for him to see my family tree and see where he comes from but I cannot puzzle out how to do this thanks

Hi Jude, do you have your family tree on here or another site?

To view it he would need to be a member im sure to access your info.If he is a member than you can give access to him to view.

Maybe some other member might have better idea

ji I have my tree on this site and am looking for a way to pay and gift him access

Either
(a)
you open a new account , and then give him the login details so that he can access it.
He can change the password later if he wants to:

If you don't want to pay for more than one year, disable automatic renewal. He can renew it himself after the first year if he wants to.



or (b)
he can open an account himself if you give him the money to pay for the first year's sub.

Having done either of the above, and once he had logged in, he would then have to click on your name at the top of one of your posts, on this thread, for instance, and send you a message asking for permission to see your tree.

He would also have to start his own tree, even just by entering himself and maybe his parents. (Or you could start it off for him before giving him the login details, if you use option (a) above.)
At the top of the tree page, once you had granted permission for him to view your tree, he would see "View other trees" , and would then click on that to see your tree.

I'm afraid there's no easy way to do it, as far as I'm aware.
