One direction to consider is to have an option that would show a map with all the events places for a single person (or family) marked color-coded by the type of event.
Another option is to to pick a location and a radius (in miles or km) and then display all events places within the circle and color code these by people (or families) involved.
I am sure that there are many other reasonable choices but Keith needs to know what will provide the most value for his efforts. What do others think?
