Ancestors Map is an interactive 
Geography category view addon that overlays pins for certain known Places on downloaded Map tiles.
Usage
Change the designated Home Person to map a different set of Ancestors.
There are 4 pin types:
- Magnifying glass pins with a plus : Places with Birth Events
- Magnifying glass pins with a minus : Places with Death Events
- Magnifying glass pins with an X : Places with Marriage Events
- Push pins : Places with multiple Event types
Right-click on a map pin to reveal a pop-up menu listing the Events & People at that Place.)
Troubleshooting
You can set up a multi-stage of filter that show only Places for Ancestors & configure the Places view to show the Longitude & Latitude. This will tell you how many of Ancestor related Places will be omitted from being map plotted.
For this multi-stage custom filter, I create the following Cascade of custom filters:
1) Person custom Filter "ActivePerson" using the "Active Person" add-on rule. (New incredibly useful add-on Rule. It makes Filters MUCH more dynamic. Thanks Paul!)
2) Person custom Filter "ActiveAncestors" using Ancestral filter "Ancestors of <filter> match"; filter=ActivePerson {You might add a 2nd rule to include the Active person where "At least one rule must apply". Otherwise, the Events & Places of the Active Person might be omitted}
3) Places custom Filter "ActiveAncestorEvents" using General filter "Events of persons matching the <person filter>"; person filter=ActiveAncestors
4) Places custom Filter "ActiveAncestorEventPlaces" using General filter "Places of events matching the <event filter>"; event filter=ActiveAncestorEvents
