I have downloaded my database there. At the time it was a independent storage facility. I was not interested in sending to Ancestry nor Family Tree Maker. I have no info on the status of the various companies acquiring each other or not. I found that the family I sent to One World Tree, when gedcomed, connected my downloads to already existing 'cousins', in their database. I then chose to not maintain month fees, and was locked out to the people that I call existing 'cousins', I have no problem with it, they need to make money like the rest of us. The other problem I had with them, which is why I left it, was that there were more 'errors' in OGF tham in the 1960-era LDS DB. (The LDS are doing great working to fix it) One example (forgot the actual person) showed one ancestor in my line, with over 250 descendants, including about 20 Johns, with different birth date/place combos. It took ne a whole day to merge the matches. The next day, the changes corrected themselves back to the wrong data. Since I had been looking for a cheap place to get my info 'on-line', my relatives would never be able to sort out this mess. It is a good service, and I will return some day. Rich in LA CA
