I think it is very easy to use When you say that you have the latest FTM, are you talking about version 11 or 2005? I wasn't aware that 2005 had actually shipped yet. I ordered it as soon as I was notified, and was told that it would ship late this week. _\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_\|/_ | Roger L.

I do not have the new version, having switched from FTM to Legacy a few months ago. The descriptions I have read of the new version sound as if FTM is incorporating some of the features of Legacy. Sara Binkley Tarpley

Roger would appreciate your posting to the list your opinion on new FTM 2005 thanks so much pat memphis,TN

I have seen some ads for a new version of Family Tree Maker. Has anyone purchased that program and tried it yet? If so How do you like it and is it worth the money. I went to www.ftm2005.com and looked at the screen shots. It looks completely different. Please let me know it it is worth the upgrade or purchase. I would like to know. Thanks Brent

I have two adult ancestors and their daughter who died "near Clarksville, TN" between Oct 1 and Nov 10, 1871, Matthew Fox Walpole, his wife, Lydia R. Walpole, and their adult daughter. Is there a record of some kind of contagious illness sweeping through the area during that time? Freddie
