Hi I don't think anything from the Patron Family Group Sheets was ever entered into the Ancestral File, only stuff that was sent in specifically for the AF. And now they only accept stuff on disk for the AF. We hear people say all the time, "But we sent in the 4-generation FGS years ago. Why aren't they in the AF?" The answer is because they were never entered in the AF. I disagree...that's where the original database came from. I remember the first time I downloaded some of it...there were 13-15 children per family because the little old volunteer typists kept hitting enter when they were working ...there were LOTS of errors on those. But I was given to understand at the FHL that's where the original stuff came from. Of course it was a brilliant idea...in the "olden days" you had to go search through those big binders and pull your famly group sheets and have them photocopied....the wear and tear was impossible, it was horribly time- consuming, and some people just took the originals home!!! The AF ws a great idea. I will look forward to the new AF.....I submitted my stuff last year (again)...so hopefully it will be there. Michele Brooks >>
