Hello Marion My name is Sharon and I use the GenesReunited. It is one of the best things I use. When I started to use it I thought it would be a waist of time. Then I found several cousins and now have my mothers side of the family way way back somewhere about in the 1200's. My fathers side I now have back to about 1600 and still going finding more and more family I did not know we had. Give it a try and if you dont like it you can cancel if that is what you wish to do. You do not have to sign your life away with it like some of the others. All the best in your searching. Sharon from Nova Scotia Canada
