Lynne- I guess I didn't word that well (in addition to having no subject <g>) but that's what I meant--those of us with a subscription couldn't see whether or not it DID work for those who do not because it works (after a fashion) for US. Therefore, we wouldn't have exactly the same set of factors to check it out that a non-subscriber would. Joan --------------------------- No, you do not need to have an Ancestry subscription for this to work. I'm not subbed to Ancestry and it works fine for me, as long as I remember to contact posters from the Ancestry side and to click on their user id within the message.
