GEDmatch MultiFind Plugin Extension

This plugin allows you to search multiple kit numbers on the GEDmatch one-to-many (both free and tier one) and the \"matches two kits\" search tools. It has not been optimized to work on Genesis yet. This is handy when going through matches to quickly identify people who match a list of related individuals. There is also an option for building a database, should you wish to add kits you find are related to someone on the list.

Matches will be highlighted on the GEDmatch page and a summary of the matches along with the total match size in cM will be generated.
