Thanks Sherry, I went back on one of the hyperlinks that Legacy provided in notepad for each _APID error. I discovered the link: trees.ancestry.com/pt/AMTCitationRedir.aspx?tid=14852117&pid=281953773 goes to a screen which relates after-the-fact to the merging of data from someone else's tree on Ancestry.com into Argotta Franks in my own tree. Specifically the screen label is "Saved Ancestry Family Trees for Argotta Franks". And it shows "0 Public Member Trees" (in other words it is blank) on the left side column, and on the right side column labeled "Argotta Franks from your tree" is the birth, death, family info on Argotta Franks from my own tree. Perhaps you already had this info, but if not thought it might be some help identifying the source.
(By the way Argotta Franks was someone from Ancient Roman times, so not worried about violating her privacy :o) Have a wonderful week, Garnet Sherry/Support wrote: > The programmers are working on this.
