No, I don't work for Ancestry. I have been doing genealogy for over 50 years and I just hate to see someone have a bad experience with it.

Okay, that's what I was trying to understand. All Ancestry does is provide the data. But it sounded like you needed someone who would help guide you find the information you were looking for, and unfortunately, that's not part of their program. They charged you for looking at the data, and...

What kind of help were you asking for?

Actually, I've found documents from many other countries; Germany, The Netherlands, England, and others. What kind of help were you looking for? I think a lot of people misunderstand the purpose of Ancestry. They are there to offer documents that in the past we either had to crawl through dusty...

I joined this site and then got sick and couldn't get on the computer very much. Then I ended up in the hospital for 9 days, 6 of them ICU. When I got home, I was so tired, again I couldn't do anything. It's now been a month and I'm finally getting my energy back so now I'm back online. I've...

Sadly, Tim Conway of the Carol Burnett show just passed away. Probably his funniest sketch was with Harvey Korman called The Dentist". No matter how many times you watch this, it's always hysterical. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nF_C3bO8WZ0&feature=youtu.be

Hi, I just discovered this group and I'm so glad I did. My name is Cindi and I live with my husband in a tiny town in the northwest corner of Washington state. We both are partially disabled. I have problems with my legs from a car accident and cancer and use a cane, walker and a wheelchair. My...
