Ancestry.com has never created a good system to back up the data that is on their site. The only option people have is to download the GEDCOM file, which is often a mere fraction of the data they have invested in the site. This extension allows you to screen scrape your media files in an automated fashion. You should clear all files out of your default downloads folder before using this extension so you know that all downloaded files belong to Ancestry. This extension does not work on MACs due to the way MACs handle clicking the middle mouse button. Follow the support site if you wish to assist in finding a solution to this problem.

Pedigree Thief is a genealogy data gathering tool. The information gathered is intended to be imported into Genealogical DNA Analysis Tool, a program that allows you to manage your DNA matches. Please note that only English language pages are supported although the extension may function in other language sites. The extension's primary function is to read pedigree trees ( Geni and MyHeritage) and convert them to Ahnentafel. See also the included Pedigree to GedCom application that can read pedigrees from other sources. It will also read information on matches from MyHeritage as well as adding a couple of utilities to some GedMatch web pages. Before using for the first time, right-click the icon and select 'Help' from the menu. This will give guidance to setting up and using the extension.
