    Let me point you to the Blogs, where people have written about many topics that will help you. I have written 2 in particular for those new to GW:

    "How I Get the Most Out of GW"

    "My 2-cents on Using GenealogyWise"

    Hi Sherry,
    Thank you for your offer to help and letting me know of your sites. It will be a must read soon for me! I do have ancestry already, and I do go to the LDS church site and work on some of the paf files.
    I do get a little on the free side of footnote and definitely would like to have someone check out some things on the site.
    This has been an ongoing project for about 20 years now...off and on. Mostly off. But I do have some good information on my family lines.

    Hi Wanda,
    I agree. I think that the least Sorenson could do would be to run it through their computer and give you the top matches. As it is now I would not reccommend Sorenson because they offer no help. You have to be a scientist to decifer the code enough to make a match. I only have one page on my Malcolms but I have no way of knowing which of the markers is important and the values of those markers in regard to rarity. I cannot guess to what degree I may or may not be related to the few others on that list. Very frustrating!
