Following their recent announcement that Family Tree Maker is to be discontinued, Ancestry posted a follow-up announcement in which they said: "We are exploring possible relationships with other desktop software solutions that would make it possible for their products to integrate with Ancestry" If you would like this to include Family Historian, please contact Ancestry to tell them so (see http://www.ancestry.com/cs/contact-us for Ancestry contact details). We are very willing to provide web hints to Ancestry and also direct import from Family Tree Maker databases, if they make these options available. As regards 'tree sync': our reading of Ancestry announcements is that they may be discontinuing this altogether, although it's not 100% clear at this point.

It has been pointed out to me that you probably can't get through to Ancestry by phone at the moment. That being the case, if you want to lobby them to allow Family Historian to integrate with their databases (and to allow direct import from Family Tree Maker), you're probably better off sending them an email. I believe these email addresses should work: support@ancestry.com support@ancestry.co.uk Alternatively, if you have an Ancestry account, you can use this form: http://help.ancestry.com/app/ask There are also regional variations on this form - such as: http://ancestryuk.custhelp.com/app/ask (UK) http://ancestryau.custhelp.com/app/ask (Australia) http://ancestryca.custhelp.com/app/ask (Canada) Simon Orde List Administrator and Family Historian Designer -----Original Message----- From: family-historian-users-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:family-historian-users-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Simon Orde (FHU Mailing List) via Sent: 11 December 2015 12:58 To: FAMILY-HISTORIAN-USERS-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [FHU] *** Integration with Ancestry Following their recent announcement that Family Tree Maker is to be discontinued, Ancestry posted a follow-up announcement in which they said: "We are exploring possible relationships with other desktop software solutions that would make it possible for their products to integrate with Ancestry" If you would like this to include Family Historian, please contact Ancestry to tell them so (see http://www.ancestry.com/cs/contact-us for Ancestry contact details).
