Why do you want to eliminate where you go the information from?

Ancestry.com is like a Library. In no way would a person say the source was the Library of Congress or any local library they may have gone to in order to view a census for example. Ancestry.com is like a repository and that should never be used as a source. All Ancestry.com wants is the advertising. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Arnold E.
