I recently came across your blog and have been reading along. I thought I would leave my first comment. I don’t know what to say except that I have enjoyed reading. Nice blog. I will keep visiting this blog very often.

I just switched to the new ancestry member tree and more than half of my tree is gone. What the heck happened.

I have paid my membership fees for years to use the Online Family Tree. I tried the Membership Tree System but it is difficult to use and the historical information on individuals is not transferable from my Apple computer program (Reunion), Online Family Tree members have built in historical information that is of significant importance and will be lost when you close the system down. I, for one, will most likely not renew my membership with you. I see where many others feel the same way. It is your loss.

Help! My tree is marked private but still shows up as public when I do a search. Does this happen to everyone? Is my tree just public for me, or can everyone see it? Can’t get any feedback when I try to contact Ancestry.com.

Good news. At this writing, Online Family Tree (OFT) continues to be operational, for which I am grateful to Ancestry.com.

In my opinion, it’s fine for users who wish to go over to using the Ancestry Member Tree (AMT) system to do so. I personally find AMT deficient in comparison to OFT for reasons previously given by me many times.

However, it’s good for Ancestry.com itself, in many ways, to sustain the “oldie but goodie” OFT system, as it seems to have decided to do. I wish to congratulate Ancestry.com for this sensible apparent decision, which will be appreciated by many members of the broad community interested in genealogical studies.

Sincerely,

Gary Collins

I applied about 1st. Nov. to try your 2 weeks Free Trial. I filled in numerous questions until I found you were going to charge about £80, At that point I rang off. Now I see that £107.40 has been deducted from my a/c on 4th. Nov.

Since I have never used your service, nor even the free trial, can you please refund that amount by cheque or to my bank – a/c. no 02266806,
sort code 01-01-81. Nat West.
Please acknowledge asap. HJS

So if OFT gone forever?
Or is the server just “down” for tonight?

BTW. I never got an answer to my question about updating AMT from OFT after the first transfer. (See July 21 post #407)
I guess Kenny doesn’t really care to help any of us
