If readers believe that by giving your family tree to the Mormon's will bond the deceased to their church, then don't do it. That is the reason they are into genealogy ; and also be careful that your collection will not be copied without permission and end up on some commercial CD's. Sharon, being of a legal mind and profession, might have advice on how to prevent copyright infringement. **** Reply to LIST only, please.

My records ending up on a commercial CD has always been the overriding factor in why it is still in my computer only. My late mother's cousing placed his information out there and now it is one the CD's sold by Ancestry.com and a few others. Hopefully we will learn how to prevent this from Sharon.
