Hi folks, Brother's Keeper is a DOS genealogy share ware program. While I don't use it, I do know several folks that do, and they seem to like it. But like all programs, it to seems to have some draw backs. I happened to like my FTM 7.0.... However, there are several excellent programs out there. One other thing that should be considered, is how well you understand computer language. If you don't understand a lot of it, like most of us (in other words you aren't a programer or such) you might had better stick with a genealogy program who has some support systems in place. There are a few excellent programs that are out on the market, look super, but have no off line or on line profession support staff, albeit sometimes they have fellow users support staff. You have to consider what you think you will need, want and can do when making your choice. Cheryl
