If a tree is posted as "private," does it remain private? On Sun, Jun 7, 2015 at 12:27 PM, joan.huot via <nywestch@rootsweb.com> wrote: > I put no information about living people online.

> If a tree is posted as "private," does it remain private? Yes. Furthermore, I don't know where mizscarlett is getting this fear about private information being posted by Ancestry comes from. No one can see information on living people in Ancestry trees unless you grant them that right. Nothing has changed. I suspect mizscarlett is the victim of some hoax email spreading FUD. Please. Please! Pretty Please with sugar and cherries on top!!! Before posting on the Internet about the lastest EVIL plots and happenings you hear about on the Internet, make sure to verify the truth of it before littering the Internet with hoaxes. Just because it came from a friend or relative of yours doesn't mean it isn't a big, stinking, pile of bull excrement. Thank you, Brian
