While this mod controls which information about branches can be seen by different classes of site visitors, The separate Regroup Person-Hide Branches mod controls which branches are visible to those classes of visitors.

Also, the Show Branch Users mod adds branch-assigned users to the list of branch members in the popup box.

This mod changes that descendant indicator to a down-arrow. It also adds an up-arrow as an indicator that parents have ancestors. The ancestor indicator is a hyperlink to a parents' ancestor chart.

See the mod options or the Wiki article for specifics.

1. It moves some the profiled person's events below the person's Parent and Family data,

Name	Anna Geraldine Horton  [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
Notes	In March 1924, when Geraldine was 16, her mother Ollie Horton was a witness to Geraldine's marriage with Otto (Ott) Davis in a civil ceremony in Oklahoma City. Ott lived a long and reasonably-well-documented life, but that wedding is the only record of any association between Ott and Geraldine. The 1930 federal census reports that Geraldine and her parents were living in St. Louis, Mo, in the home of her husband Walter F Whelan, as was Geraldine's and Walter's son Sammy Joe Whelan, who was born 8 months after Geraldine's marriage to Ott Davis. There is no record of a marriage between Geraldine and Walter, but Sammy's 1990 Social Security death record does list them as his parents. The 1930 census reports that Geraldine's first marriage was at age 16, which matches her marriage with Ott Davis. That census also reports that 37-year-old Walter's first marriage was at age 31 - the same year that as Geraldine's marriage and Sammy's birth. In the 1940 census, Sammy was living with Geraldine's mother Ollie and her (Ollie's) new husband in Lawton, Oklahoma, and and is reported as their grandson. This Geraldine could be the Geraldine Horton who married Oscar Baskar in Colorado Springs CO in 1933 and lived with him in Arkansas until they divorced in 1960. That marriage and divorce and intervening censuses are the only plausible life events that I have found for Geraldine after 1930. Walter Whelan is likely to have been born in Omaha, NE, and to have lived there most of his life. (I'm not sure why I haven't added that information about him.)The 1930 census reports that he was born in Nebraska.
Gender	Female
Birth	9 Nov 1906 Missouri, USA [1, 2, 3, 4]
