My brother did a lot of work on our familytree .He passed away without giving his password .I would like to continu the work .How can I get the familytree on my account ??

Please give your email address and I'll update their account so you can reset the password and use their account or export a GEDCOM file from their family tree.

My mailadres is [email protected]
my brother 's name is Philippe Vanpeperstraete

@grizzlyhogger and @lauriedeb: The accounts have been updated. Please go to https://en.geneanet.org/resetting/request to reset the password.

Out of curiosity, what verification does Geneanet do before allowing someone else to take over an account?

When they are talking about the death of a parent or sibling, people are sincere in 99.9% of the cases. We also see that the family name is the same or that the email address is similar. If any doubt, we ask for some proof.
