I found a video on the subject and thought I had the answer. The video showed in the top left corner of the page "MY ANCESTRY". I don't have this showing on my page. When I put the cursor on FAMILY TREE at the top of the page it states "Family Tree - view your Family Tree or start another tree". However, when I click/go to FAMILY TREE there is nothing there about starting a new tree. So how do you start a new tree? billy I talked to a rep at Ancestry sort of told me how to start a new tree and to watch a video on the subject.

His name is Harold Wade, b. in 1922, with the SS# 784 91 2948. He is listed at residing at 6710 W. Maple Rd., West Bloomfield, Oakland County, Michigan, Zip 48322, PH: 248-592-0564. I have reason to believe that he is now living in an "assisted living" retirement home, under Jewish auspicious in West Bloomfield. He had been married to a "Minnia Wade". who died at an early age. His father, Israel Wade, who immigtated to the USA, died in 6/17/1048, and is buried in Grave F-077 at Nusach Hari Cemetery. His mother, Lena Wade, is also interned at the same cemetery on 6/2/1950 in Grave F-110 in Detroit, MI. Grave F-111 is assigned to Harold Wade. A "Seymour Wade" is assigned to Grave I-002 at the same cemetery. I was born in 1926, making Harold 4 years my senior.To make things even tougher, the social worker at the Detroit retirement home informed me that Harold doesn't want anything to do with kinfolk. I never had anything to do with his family, and wad was not even aware of their existance. I DESPERATELY NEED HELP and ADVICE, since I am planning to write my family memoirs. I can be reached at 11030 Presbyterian Drive, Ste. 2005, Indianapolis, IN.46236. My phone number is 317-823-6481, ext. 2005. Many thanks for any help that you can give.

If the search parameters are narrow, one doesn't wish to be directed to plough through 1 plus million names. If someone was born 1830 plus or minus five years and then listed as being born in Africa, but lived and died in one city/state, the person performing the search should not have to look through thousands or millions of names. I have noticed that others users/subscribers have this and other search related issues. Also, there needs to be an improvement in the wildcard search criteria. Its too limiting.

MyFamily will not show that tree instead you have to upload a Gedcom and create a new tree there bye have 2 trees. Their needs to be a way to do this without creating a new one. Their also needs to be a way to upload a tree from FTM 2008 that can be updated without haveing to load a new tree each time specially since media files dont seem to be uploading right now. one of the problems i have run across with the Ancestry Trees and My family Trees is that what if I already have a tree uploaded.
