I'm sure others who know more will respond. Do you have a subscription to ancestry? If you have her information on your ancestry tree, you can download your tree to a gedcome and create a new legacy tree to compare the files with. I don't know if there is any kind of auto compare button to eliminate duplicates since I haven't done it, but it sounds as though that's the recommended thing to do with Gedcoms. Open the files side by side and check the info before you put it into your file. I guess you would have to cut and paste from one file to the other - guessing at that.
If you don't have your cousin's information on your own family trees, she has probably invited you to see them. You can do that without a subscription. Maybe she would download gedcoms and send them to you via email. I'll be interested in reading what others have to say since I, too, need to learn more about how to take the quickest route to merging two files. >________________________________ > From: MJ SA <[email protected]> >To: [email protected] >Sent: Sunday, April 22, 2012 1:50 PM >Subject: [LegacyUG] Download a tree from Ancestry or add a gedcom to legacy > >My cousin has a few different trees on ancestry, which is a great >idea, she is separating families.
