I don't know of ANY magazine that renews automatically, and I believe that it's against the law. But I won't deal with Ancestry.com since they're such sleazeballs. I will never, never, never, give my credit card number to any company that uses this kind of auto renewal. Never.

Take a look here: http://www.familysearch.org/ go to "search", and plug "Nixon" into the last name field. You might want to do this with exact spelling turned on. > Do we have a crest or emblem or something Short answer: Families, with very very few exceptions (like the Windsor's of England I believe) don't have family crests, although there are scammers who have been selling them for probably centuries. Welcome to the group - it's usually pretty friendly, and we try to be helpful. The Nixon surname should be fairly easy to research, as it's not terribly common (Miller, for instance, is almost impossible to find the right family). Also, if you know you're related to Richard M., I'd be surprised if his tree isn't online somewhere. Hope this helps, Dave Hinz

It's a subscription service, and as such, auto-renews just like every other subscription service that I use. It's standard business process for this type of a service. Dave Hinz

Is anyone working on the Nixon name at all? Do we have a crest or emblem or something

They didn't call me this last time but I keep check on when my account is due and it didn't bother me as I would have renewed anyway. I have found them a great deal of help but then I need to do some double takes to correct some of the information I do find just to make sure that it is accurate. Like what would you do if you got a letter after you asked someone a question as well as a statement about his ancestor marrying a person who died at the age of three he wrote back and told my I didn't deserve a civil reply. Besides he spelled my mothers last (maiden) name wrong. She was a MANNING not a MOURNING. Edith "Jon E.

I've been a member of Ancestry for several years. Each year they've called, except for the time I was on the trial (or three month, can't remember) they did NOT call, it just went to my credit card. I would have renewed anyway, but I was a bit peeved they did not call to ask Lori Jorge Lopez wrote: > Ancestry also called me about 2 weeks before it was time to renew to see if > I wanted to.

That is odd because when I renewed they called me first to get my okay.

I told them in August that I no longer wanted their service but they charged my credit card in September $59.00 and will not remove the charge. You cannot e-mail them to stop their service and when you call their 800 number you are put on hold FOREVER.

I thought so, too. At the VERY least, the trains came out of Big Cities in the East; seems to me last time this topic came 'round someone reported that some of the trains picked up additional children in Big Cities they passed through. RandMcNally puts Newport as a sort of 'burb to Cincinnati, so maybe it qualified? Then again, a child with one parent isn't an "orphan" (except in estate proceedings) and I sort of have a vague recollection that these orphan-train orphans were out of city-run orphanages? Let's all hope someone familiar with 'em will answer her!
