This is exactly why I no longer subscribe to any of the PAID genealogy sites. When a member, I posted all my family data that I had at the time. I'm sure lots of other people did the same thing. Since that time (several years ago), one company has now taken over the management of all the genealogy websites and we must now pay to access our own information (except for message boards, but who wants to wade thru those?). Others use our data to create books, which they turn around and sell. That's one more reason this list is SO IMPORTANT! "Neschie" __________________________________ Yahoo!
