Gypsy, Cheryl and Bob: I, too, am glad to share any information I have but have not submitted it to Ancestry or anywhere else for the same reasons as you.

I have queries out there - but no where have I submitted my "whole" family tree - I have had bad experiences with people taking my stuff and entering it - and not entering it correctly. I learned of grandchildren I do not have - and learned things about my grandparents and parents that are not true. All out there on the web for everyone to see and finding no way to correct it. And as for the validity of their claims - my father knows where he was born much more so than my mother's mother's third cousin's second wife! Believe me! I have had to ask people to remove information on living people - some do some don't. Am I mean and selfish? Maybe mean - but never selfish - I gladly share - based on what others share with me. But I do not submit to websites - I am not comfortable not knowing where that info goes and who benefits monetarily from my hard work. Just my take on the topic.
