I had never considered the startling possibility that the Church of Latter-day Saints owns the corporation The Generation Network (parent company of Ancestry.com). Is there some information available about the LDS ownership of TGN? Brownie, please share your resources for this. It would be very useful to learn more about any connections between the two organizations. Thanks!
