I am finding that out. I belong to the Columbus Library and they have something that is like Ancestry, or it is ancestry.com. I haven't had a chance to access it yet. They told me I can use it at any library branch, but you have to be accessing it from the library. The copies at the library are .25 cents a copy, much steeper than .05 cents at your local FHC. I am finding out, just about anything that you really need a copy of will cost you something. Sometimes you wonder if purchasing ancestry.com would be worth it? I am sure many of you have it, is it worth 199.99 a year?

It's been worth the cost for me, but I have 3 family sites at My Family, and do research for others. I might be wrong, but I think you can get a trial subscription and cancel after 2 wks. if you don't want to continue. ----- Original Message ----- From: <L1011Jet@aol.com> To: <OHBUTLER-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, July 08, 2005 11:50 AM Subject: Re: [OHBUTLER-L] Ancestry.com > > I am finding that out.

Karla, It's worth it but you may not need it for more then a year. You can milk all of the census sites, etc in that time so after that if you don't want the expense you can just keep your Tree on RootsWeb.com.
