This is a wonderful thing you are doing here (& in writing them.) Thank you for sharing it. I have included this post in my current NoteWorthy Reads post: http://jahcmft.blogspot.com/2016/01/noteworthy-reads-25.html.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Jo! With so many people switching from FTM to Legacy and other software programs, the genealogy community is really pulling together to help each other. I think genealogists are a wonderful group of people. I'll be sure and post a link to your Noteworthy Reads on my FB page.
