If you have multiple family members with the same geocoded location, then the map marker pop up will only display one random family member instead of multiple family members.

For example, the Kennedy family tree has 19 family members born in Boston, MA but the map marker pop up will only display one family member:

While this looks like a single map marker, it is actually 19 individual map markers with the same coordinates. The darker the shadow under the map marker, the more markers are on that coordinate.

One option is to display a table in each map marker, but this duplicates the table that already exists in the right sidebar. A better option is to link the map markers and the table. Clicking on the map marker would dynamically filter the results in the data table. One quick option is to search for the geocoded location in the table (similar to the screenshot above). A more robust solution is to add a custom data attribute for geocoded coordinates to each map marker and corresponding data table entry. Clicking on the map marker for a coordinate would then filter for all data table entries with the same coordinate.
