Well ,I can`t split the prject since it all of the people are connected to me somehow. The focus with that project has been starting with me and then entering as many ancestors I knew ,and then also go onto all I could find of descendants of all the siblings and halfsiblings of my ancestors etc. I am sure I have lots of duplicates ,that I will have to do a report on and then go through them.

What is the main focus of your project? In my case, it is about a dozen families of mine and my wife's. Some of these are tending to one-name studies while most others tend to be fairly small groups. The majority of the small groups include a number of side tracings trying to get around brick walls in my major focus. If I ever need to split my project, I plane to drop the side groups as they are included just for convenience of the time and are rarely used. Of course, that won;t save that much (probably not more than a few thousand people. For serious splitting, I would have sepaprate out my families and my wife's families. That would require the least amount of duplication between projects.
