    3. I am open minded about looking for a new site. It must be FREE, and it needs to have unlimited space, and if I go to all that trouble, who is to say that if Ancestry wanted the info they could still get it. I have a lot i'd like to "Just share with my Floyd family", but that would require us paynig for a site and then you would have to use a password to gain access. I don't think i'm ready for all that web authoring. Let's go with the change and see what happens. I have looked at Yahoo, they have a small limit on what I can post. Our photos would take up more than is avaliable with them. I looked at Mindspring, and that's a possibility, although I don't know how much space I can get for free. I looked here, http://genealogenie.net/ as this is where some of the other CC's are going. Who owns the space? I don't know??? How much space can we get, I don't know that either. Moveing is not as easy as just saying "Let's go". we have to pack up, and not leave a crumb behind, cause if you do, then something is not going to work. I moved my Craig county site from Yahoo-Geocities to Rootsweb not long ago. It took me about 10 hours, and it's a small site. I have Loudoun, Rockbridge, Botetourt, Craig, Roanoke, Floyd, Franklin, and Patrick all volunteer projects. I work a full time job and I am too busy to think about moving all these sites just because Ancestry has access. I hope you all understand where i'm comming from. I don't mind us discussing this, but the decision has been made between Rootsweb & Ancestry's parent company. Nothing we can say to change this. Thank you Miss Kat. You made my day. Now I have work you all sent me and if I can i'll try to get some of it posted. Doug sent me two cemeteries, and John sent me two cemeteries, Bob sent me deveral deeds for the Lemon family, Doris gave me abt 100 pictures to finish off Troutville Cemetery in Troutville, Va., and I took 69 photos in Fairview~Buchanan & 117 photos in Godwin Cemetery in Fincastle this week. also received 6 new Pension apps for Rockbridge County.....I'm tired already, just thinking ....
