Give us a clue then Merry ............!! lol
What I want to begin with is something not too complicated to use, that can take photos, documents, notes (and notes that are not in one lump, like Tribes). |

I can't really make suggestions as I've only ever used Brother's Keeper. I've just looked and I have 4,605 documents attached to it and about 10,000 individuals on the program. I've never had a problem with it so don't see a reason to investigate other programs. I'm not sure how long I've been using it -- maybe 15 years, but I see it's been around since before 1990!

I think Tribal Pages is (are?) missing a trick here. I have long wished that they sold an offline programme for their tree, although I could suggest a few refinements!
I do have FTM but have never been comfortable with it, so it's no great loss to me. OC |

My biggest whinge is that we will lose the opportunity of a cheap sub attached to outdated FTM prgrams Am I imagining it or did the mormons sell the ancestry site a while back?

Ancestry has been sold a couple of times in recent years, Heather, but I don't know whether it belonged to Mormons in the first place.

Ancestry started out as the commercial arm of the LDS church although the two were kept (financially) scrupulously separate. One is a registered charity, the other a business. Several leaders of the LDS church had high ranking positions in Ancestry.
I am not suggesting they were doing anything wrong. OC |

Boy, there are some very unhappy people out there! Every single post is slating Ancestry.

I can see why people would be upset if they use the "Tree Sync" feature (i.e. they sync their FTM tree with their ancestry one), but a lot of the people commenting on there are reacting as though they won't be able to use FTM at all any more. Surely if it works on their computers at the moment, it will still work even when ancestry stop selling and supporting it, apart from the actual tree sync feature?
