Finding My Great-Grandfather! I came to this site to find information on my great-grandparents who came from Ireland to the US in the mid-1800s. That was all I knew. The construction of a family tree, adding in my parents and grandparents, resulted in finding the names of both great-grandparents and where they were born. I spent about 3 hours reading and found the site easy to navigate, even for a tech "rookie" like me.

I love the access to the old maps! I love the access to the old maps! I am working on family in England and Wales. The old maps are a Godsend. There are so many places that have changed. I am going to enjoy your educational materials as well.

Misleading marketing… I realize that you have to make money to be able to maintain your site, However, I have not learned one new fact working with you that I didn’t already know. I have been using your family tree feature and have entered 10+ layers of my family. I have had tons of “hints”. Nothing has been new information. Anything new that I would want to know requires me to join your site. If you advertise online that you offer free tools they should be totally free. Just be honest on your advertising.

Over Time...I've Improved Over time, I felt comfortable entering data. As the tree grew, hints were provided. At one point, the tree had family names related to me that was added quickly. What I found amazing is that the hints were different from other platforms for ancestors five generations which others did not have. I'm comfortable navigating and entering data while noticing that I'm more at ease since I first started.

Very interested in my heritage I don't like getting all the British stuff and I like a little more information or a navigation tool for Slaves and african Americans during slavery and the eighteen hundreds
