Hello all,
I would imagine that this subject has been discussed before, and it may be a little off topic, so I have already referred to the archives and the Legacy help files and am not satisfied with an answer, so now I come to seek advice from experienced users as to what would be the best, most direct way to post a tree on Ancestry.com. Currently, I have a private member tree posted there that I keyed in the 2,000+ individuals name by name. Ancestry doesn't allow, from what I see, a way for me to add an updated, more recent gedcom to an already existing tree so therefore I want to post a new tree with the 6,000+ individuals that are now in my file. What I would like to do is post a tree that includes the individuals name, birth date, marriage date, and death dates only. Reason I want to do this is to minimize the information "put out there" online, but that would maybe help to find a relative who may be searching the same family. Since putting this tree, on ancestry I now use Legacy Family Tree. I see that Legacy has the menu option of either File\Export to Ancestry Online family tree or File\Export to Gedcom File. Which, in your opinions, is the better method to use and how? My experience in the past with Gedcom files has not been very pleasant one, so I want to hopefully minimize the stress and utilize my family tree software to the best of its capabilities. I appreciate your input and thank you in advance for trying to help me.
