NNVF Tree info for all. All Editors of this tree are recognized by Ancestry and are linked specifically with this tree (and maybe others, by separate actions) with rights to add, change, delete - this includes people, records, stories, pictures, etc. even if you do not have an Ancestry subscription. If you do have a subscription, you can follow the Ancestry hints to other relatives (in other Ancestry trees), and hints to records in the Ancestry database - any and all of which you can then link to a person on our Tree. They are actually pretty good tools, but I don't want anyone to feel pressured by me to subscribe to ancestry (despite their tactics to lure you in) - we have a number of editors who are subscribers and any of us could, time permitting, find and attach an extant record for you - indeed, the Ancestry hint leaves point us to many of those records, and make them easy to attach. However, folks without an Ancestry subscription can attach any jpg or pdf or Word file (that they have on their! own PC) to individuals in the Tree and they can type in notes or stories, etc from scratch. There is a LOT the non-subscriber Editors can do to help build the NNVF Tree, and those with subscriptions can add on additional items found at Ancestry. Again - we have a great opportunity to build a robust, well-documented, peer-reviewed Tree. I think with our growing list of Editors, representing many NN family lines and treasure troves of documentation, we are well on our way. Congratulations to all for an enthusiastic start - it bodes well. Jim - Sent from my iPhone - FaceTime!

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. > > Craig > >
