Typically I don’t use other people’s trees at all except for maybe a lead. I never merge trees with my information either. I know about the LDS trees being suspect, but many on Ancestry.com are as well. I’ve found my well-documented ancestors on trees where they don’t belong. The only thing

Thanks. I've never been to an FHC ever, but maybe I should go. My problem with it is that I have so many different lines to research and I'd have to print everything out since I don't have a laptop or any other electronic device to hold all my information. That's why I prefer to do it from

ha ha, Tim, you're so funny! A crippled version? Yep, that's exactly what it is though. I think they call it 'limited', not crippled though. I think it's the 'library version' technically but yes, it is less than what we would like to see. My FHC has a volunteer there 99% of the time who has a
