Compare-a-Face FamilySearch

[Tom Tom]

A distant contact of mine is currently trying to use the compare-a-face facility on FamilySearch to try and work out if a mystery photo is our mutual ancestor.

It is a fascinating tool. You can upload two photos, and it tells you how similar their facial features are. I am not quite sure of the science, or how the science works, but it is fascinating.

I uploaded photos of my Grandma when she was about 7, 30 and 80 and the percent match between each of the three was 99% or 100%.


Wondered if anyone else had used it or had any thoughts on it?
