Dear 2 person band called Beryl and Mike, Please tell this new to FH, Windows 10 and having a tree on Ancestry at last (because of dna testing) after years of shunning, grandma whether 1. I can take a GEDCOM from my Ancestry Tree and put it in FH? 2. 2. If I can, will the sources included in the tree show on the tree in FH? If you say yes to 1, or preferably both, I shall snaffled Grandson no 1 off train when he gets back from Sheffield at end of term to do it for me! I want to look for all 1881 census entries in Ancestry tree to enter in Lost Cousins and Ancestry support tells me that there is not a way to search for those in my tree on Ancestry. Lost Cousin’s excellent Tree Analyser can do it from my tree on FH. Thank you. Jacqueline Sent from Mail for Windows 10
Jacqueline, I strongly advise that you join the FHUG http://www.fhug.org.uk/ and ask your question in the "Importing and Exporting" Forum. Membership is free and the Knowledge Base has advice on migrating from Ancestry/FTM to FH, plus much more. You can transfer using an Ancestry GEDCOM but it has no media document images. FTM synchronises with Ancestry and downloads the media document images. Then the FTM GEDCOM includes the links to transfer the media images. However, both use a non-standard dialect of GEDCOM that will need details adjusting within FH using various Tools and Plugins.
