It all started well when building my… It all started well when building my tree. However, when trying to add great grandparents… not so much. I added a great grandfather ( this happened twice) … it was good. Then tried adding a spouse for this person and she ended up being a step-mother for the child.no matter what I tried, I ended up with a mixed up parent-child result. That’s why I’m giving up.

Finding answer to ancestors I found this site while searching for my ancestors. This site made it easy for me to view information regarding my tree (which I started with this site. I loved this site.

Charged for year subscription before trial periord ended I really liked being able to access US Church records for my ancestors. From my experience, most of the information was from the UK and I don't have enough background on my ancestors to link to UK info. This was also very costly for the amount of usable info provided. WARNING to OTHERS: my credit card was charged for a year subscription BEFORE my trial period was over. If this happens to you, there is a 14-day cooling off period where they should refund your $. Operating hours are UK time zone.

A Newbie's Comments on FMP It may be that I am too used to working with an alternative product to easily accept the differences on FMP. On the interface level, I would like more control on the look and feel of the tree diagram, namely the background colour and also to give a more solid feel to the named people. I have not yet discovered how to contract the tree via removing branches by clicking on the lines. Again, I have not discovered how to remove the stories icon that appears on each member of the tree. Why do I need to go through each set of records individually as opposed to FMP doing a global search on my behalf. Perhaps the above revels my lack of knowledge of the product, if so, then a short video on how to use the basics would be useful, and put it at the top of the help function.

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.
