Hello,

I've been using your app for a while now to make family trees in order to do research on a double-murder in a small town. The relationships between key players, being a factor.

In doing so, I've made over 25 family trees, with one consisting of over 2500 people, and 15 others consisting of at least 100 people.

THE JIST:

The search function is amazing - but I've found myself frequently needing to recall which tree a person belongs to. This means I have to go through each tree and search for the name... which is a solution, but definitely a time consuming one.

I'll be discussing the case with people, a familiar name will pop up, and I'll have to spend the next 10 minutes trying to recall where that name fits into my puzzle.

TL;DR

Is there any way you could add a feature to search among *all* the trees - or at least for specific surnames?

I know this may be a big ask, and I'm willing to send you some $ for your hard work. I've already paid for the ability to merge trees (life-changing feature, btw), and wouldn't mind sending more, since i really do like this app.
