In response to the query about GenCircles.....I have been Very impressed with the capabilities of this online database. Although the Gencircles database is smaller than WordlConnect at Rootsweb, the quality of the contributions seems better. Here's an overview: * Cliff Shaw is the founder of both GenCircles and Pearl Street Software, the publishers of Family Tree Legends. * Family Tree Legends software is integrated with GenCircles, but is not required (I personally use Family Tree Maker) * GenCircles is free and always will be. * You do NOT need to buy Family Tree Legends to use GenCircles. * They have committed not to use email addresses, put data on CD’s, and/or sending junk mail. Go to http://www.gencircles.com and enter one of your common family names. Surfing this site is a breeze and posting data is effortless. And SmartMatching searches for your family connections automatically. I love it when the computers do my hunting for me! Kate Denver, Colorado PS I am not affiliated with this company in any way! Just enthusiastic. :-) NYERIE-D-request@rootsweb.com wrote: > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > >NYERIE-D Digest Volume 05 : Issue 36 > >Today's Topics: > #1 GenCircle.com [John Doesky <sufferingsunfish@yaho] > #2 Burials in Cheektowaga [zona.himmelsbach@juno.com] > #3 Re: [NYERIE] GenCircle.com ["Dixie Endsley" <dendsley@wic.net>] > #4 reason for this stamp?
