Well, I am still flailing around with this thing. I took the tip of a lister whose name I unfortunately cannot credit and found that there is a way to scroll through the manifest as we used to be able to do. However, you can't stay long as the earlier images you were looking at time out in about 2or 3 minutes! No use trying to establish if Willie came over with his cousin down the boreen. Read Dick Eastman's recent newsletter. He refers to a "redesigned" web site he has been made aware of ( which he discreetly does not name ) and describes perfectly what will happen to Ellis Island's site. Essentially, it is a business model that is a complete failure with a well established history in the business of computer programming. This kind of thing happens all the time to banks, schools and libraries. Some salesman sells the management an idea about updating a particular service. Of course he/she has a interest, he/she recommends a provider, a group of "really smart and sharp young guys and gals, just out of school" who will save you from yourself. For a fee. Then the nightmare begins. It usually takes a year before anything improves and then only because the enterprise notices that both traffic and cash have stopped dead. Eventually tweaks will be made to this mess, but it's going to take time. And nothing will happen until we yell. I am asking my Genealogy Group to sign letter from the group, in addition to sending there own personal objections. Sheila Santa Barbara CA
