![]() Many people don't realize how easy it is to have a same-named person nearby both in location as well as age, yet potentially not even be related (my great uncle Melvin J. People don't seem to understand that those aren't checked by anyone at FamilySearch - just (perhaps) by the person that originally entered the individual into FamilySearch. Here is the name of the book and author for those interested for their ward members: “Ancestry for Latter Day Saints” by Jim BowersSharonMarchant1 Thanks for the reminder! I'm personally very bothered by the over-reliance by some members on Ordinances Ready (especially youth with the support of their leaders in order to have a great temple trip). ![]() Many of my cousins are using MyHeritage which seems to be more popular in Germany than Ancestry. Many of us use the Partner sites because of DNA matches with other family members and we do find information there we can’t currently find in FamilySearch. I recommend the book to any church member starting out with Ancestry and Family Search. I could have just run the course by showing this book Anyway I contacted the author and he gave permission to use images from the book which I could not create myself due to the link not working most of the time during the period I was creating the tutorial. In my search for instructions on how the link works I found an excellent book which gives very simple step by step instructions on how all the FamilySearch options in Ancestry work. They replicated the issues I was having and this is all due to the extreme amount of traffic between the two systems at the moment. I had to contact both ancestry and FamilySearch over the last few days as the link is usually not working at the moment. I did stress during my tutorial that nobody would want to load bulk data into FS as it would create huge numbers of duplicates. The people logging in to our FH workshops are all church members and their main aim is to make sure ordinances can be done for their ancestors. I too have no interest in polluting FS with duplicates my aim was simply to show people who find ancestry easier to use how they can then make sure the global tree is updated with information that they have gathered and checked. Open that person up, click on the tree and choose add additional family. You can also add additional generations to Ancestry from FamilySearch but only to the end of line person.Boxes appear on Ancestry - on the left is FamilySearch and on the right is Ancestry. Click on the tree again and compare with FamilySearch You can move over any information you want to FamilySearch and from FamilySearch to Ancestry. ![]()
