Hi Jeff, at International Blacksheep Society of Genealogists. Yeah, and...? Agree. It has been, AND it is NOW linked. However, we all know that many sites began this way. Catch as catch can folks, Barb From: Jeffery Scism [email protected] Findagrave.com has always been independently searchable. They did allow Ancestry to link to their data, if you have an ancestry account. BUT an Ancestry account has never been required to search their data from their home page.

Since it is searchable independently from Ancestry,now, this may be the time to post your familial deaths as well as search it independently of Ancestry. Barb
