I have a free guest account at Ancestry and have done for years, yet when I click on an Ancestry 'public tree' link, I always get taken to the subscription page. What am I doing wrong? -----Original Message----- From: Debbie Kennett <debbiekennett@aol.com> To: y-dna-projects@rootsweb.com Sent: Tue, Dec 7, 2010 11:57 am Subject: Re: [Y-DNA-projects] Y-DNA-PROJECTS Provider comparison -- was joinauthorization Rebecca If people want to see your tree on Ancestry they will have to set up an Ancestry account. They can set up a free account without having to subscribe to Ancestry. Another possibility you might like to consider is MyHeritage: http://www.myheritage.com You can export the Gedcom from Ancestry and upload it to MyHeritage. The free accounts do however limit you to 250 people in your tree. www.Geni.com also have a nice tree-building service, but you need to make sure you upload a Gedcom when you create the account. Also if you expand your tree there you can't download the Gedcom unless you have a paid Pro account.

Rebecca I thought I was able to view trees before I had an Ancestry subscription. Can you see my tree here? http://trees.ancestry.co.uk/tree/21521180 Debbie

No...the link takes me straight to the subscription page, with an option for a 14day free trial. I am signed in.
