    1. Re: [BKLYN] One World Tree
    2. I would be furious too. It was bad enough that I stored some *possible* hits on Ancestry, to review later. Of course I thought that was all private! Some married-in woman copied it all, and included my suppositions as facts. Plus, she included elderly, living relatives with details. Oh, the cherry on the cake was I was listed on "her" tree as decceased since 1986. Just wait until the general public gets it hands on the new, reviatlized LDS version of familysearch.org. Yer mug t'will be out there like a wanted poster at the P.O. Keep smiling!
