I would say Yes, but you mention one VERY important bit - VERIFY IT!!!!!! There is a lot of rubbish on the World Wide Tree (as there can be on any trees, anywhere, I think!), as well as a lot of excellent research! Well done! Merry |

My BIL has been connecting with people on GR left right and center and has his side of our tree back to the 1600's already. I on the other hand have been sending out messages to sooooooo many people only to find that the ones that responded were never matches. I just transfered my tree to Ancestry and was playing around with it learning the features when lo and behold i randomly search one name on my tree and get a definate match!! WoooHoooo I'm bouncing off the walls wishing they'd email me back right now!! lol The best part is it shows my great uncle emigrated to Pennsilvania USA.... and out of total coincedence my cousin who's on the same family line is now living in Pennsilvania. Wouldn't it be cool if she could meet these distant rellies?? :) Ok ok, calming down now. The info is on the one world tree. what's the protocall if the submitter doesn't get in touch? Can I still use the info, verify it and add it to my tree? Helen |
