Several updates: 22 invitations have gone out 12 have accepted the invites (2 as Guests) The remaining 10 either haven't accepted the invite yet, or have, instead, logged in with a previous account. If you have an Ancestry account it is beneficial for you to accept the invite for two reasons: 1. It takes you straight to the NNVF Tree 2. Ancestry adds the fact that you are an Editor of this tree to your account - otherwise, I don't think you can do anything other than observe (if you can find the tree) Has anyone found this tree by some other means, without accepting the invite? If you have Editor rights and want to add in a new NN line that does not readily connect to the BALL line, yet, your can go to any person in the tree, click to edit that person, choose relationships, enter the Patriarch of your tree in a a child, save, then go back in and "Remove" your Patriarch as a child - your record for the Patriarch is still preserved, and easily found in the index, and you can proceed to flesh out his family.

Update here: There are now 19 editors on the anestry.com database for the Northern Neck. Most of the pros and cons are being debated on the new facebook page. Not all editors are on the facebook page. Our very own Kathleen Much has signed up as an editor, though she eschews facebook. This list is the place to post all additions and corrections, and to discuss why. To become a guest or an editor of the Northern Neck Families Group --for FREE--send an email to Jim Bartlett at [email protected] Janean Skiles reports that for those who already have an ancestry.com account, the new tree is now on line when searching for private trees, under the name of Northern Neck of Virginia Families.
