An interesting idea, Bill, but my data base has info on so many living
relatives and notes on many who value their privacy (DNA data, cupboard
skeletons, &c), so I've actually shut down my family web site and only
give the barest of information on the site now. Having said that, the
most productive info has come from distant relatives who have found and
contacted me through the the original website. Those inputs have been
immeasurably valuable. I pondered the thought of stripping details from
'living' names, and editing the relevant pages, but the task got too
big. I've got around 8,500 names covering the ancestry of my
grandchildren and still more names to enter (proffered by one of those
distant relatives.) when I get time.
The original website still exists, of course, as a local entity (8Gb)
and available only to select relatives.

I have seen a number of mails on family tree research recently.
Is there a move in this direction; and, if so, can we post family tree
data to the site? Provenance and accuracy are always going to be
issues but it may be worth hosting current versions of members’ GEDCOM
files on the understanding that they are the responsibility of the
individuals who post them, not of CoTyroneIreland.
Best regards
