For about the last 24-48 hours, there has been a widespread problem with accessing Ancestry.com. I'm not an expert in Internet issues, but it appears that any attempts to reach the domain "ancestry.com" are not being recognized. As I understand it, the folks at RootsWeb/Ancestry/MyFamily are aware of the problem, and working on it. However, it may not be able to be fixed quickly. Best suggestion: Don't get frustrated, enjoy your family on the Labor Day holiday, plan to get back to genealogy later, and PLEASE, don't use this message to start a big discussion!
