I've also got a problem with Ancestry although it's not quite the same issue as yours.  A certain person who has a distant marriage relationship to my mother's side of the family has gone in and copied all information from my family trees including my father's side of the family back to my great grandparents.  Even my maternal side is far removed from him.  He's done this to two of my maternal cousins causing the three of us to make our trees private.  Every time we followed a hint, his name popped up.  Since he's not really knowledgeable about the family, he's now got dates and other facts wrong.  We've contacted him several times and he doesn't care.  He just adds people to his tree out to branches that end in outer space.  I also contacted Ancestry about this person and they can't or won't do anything about this.  I want to share and meet other people who are legitimately connected to my family but I won't make available my hard earned information with someone who has no business to it.  Barbara Kiersh On Saturday, June 20, 2015 5:53 PM, Kim Hawkins Bonetti via <[email protected]> wrote: Not sure I should be posting this here but I know of another person who had a similar problem and wanted to pass this on.  I was researching my husbands side of the family today on ancestry and came across another person with my last name in their tree.  This person, who seems to be related to my husbands ex wife, has my hubbys date and place of birth, his picture, his marriage dates for both his ex and our marriage and none of it is private.

You are way off the mark with your comment that said The only thing "making" anyone hide their data is their own pure selfishness. OK so I will share How about the marriage of my GGGG GF showing who the witnesses the marriage . To share this is totally meaningless.

Of course, every mistake I've ever made is all over the Internet Ancestry trees are terrible in my opinion................And one can hardly generate a pedigree or an ahnentafel from the data.....And a good report telling what generations of people did for a living, when they I immigrated, when they died, were they are buried, when there children were born, and containing obituaries and many other things relevant to to you can not be generated from an ancestry tree. . Trees without beef are not my cup of tea........unless you can do a family report as far back as you can go and put identifications on people GG Gf, GGG Aunt, 1C3R, etc etc you have nothing but names Different ways of doing things by people, it is what it is -----Original Message----- From: Dora Smith <[email protected]> To: Robert Pieterse <[email protected]>; nyc-roots <[email protected]> Sent: Sat, Jun 20, 2015 9:27 pm Subject: Re: [NYC-ROOTS] ancestry problem I'm sorry, why is either of you doing genealogy if you don't want to share?

I just noted there are ore messages being posted on ancestry message boards rather than roots we All the bards I subscribe to on roots the number of message have greatly reduced in the past two years. Messages posted to ancestry to not wind up on roots web and vice versa. I would not be surprised if roots web became obsolete in the near future There sure is a drastic reduction in volume..

Dear Katleen, In NYS & NYC anyone can legally acquire a DC after 50 years, for anyone. NYC DOH revamped it's rules to include that siblings can get records of each other. However, they always did and still do grant DCs less than 50 years and & BCs older than 75 years to direct line descendants. They make it complicated, but it can be done. I provide them with a cover letter describing the connection, their form, payment, SASE, then my own BC to show relationship. In addition, I suggest that researchers write on the form in permanent colored marker something like> "This is my grandmother." It's always worked for me! -----Original Message----- From: Kathleen Scarlett O'Hara Naylor via [email protected]; "I posted recently, quite aggravated, about not being able to get my 2x great-grandmother's death certificate from the DOH. But, following up on advice I got here. "I found out last night that her brother died in the 1930s, so I should hopefully be able to get his DC from the Municipal Archives with much less headache. I'm still following up with the DOH, but am glad to have another avenue to their parents' names in the meantime!" Kathleen
