Thanks so much, Barbara. It sounds from what you've written and other posts I've seen that using both Legacy and FTM is the best way. However, buying both isn't in the budge right now ;)
I used to use my computer database as the main place for recording info, but got in the bad and lazy habit of using the Ancestry online tree. Now there's so much online that isn't in my computer ... Maybe I should start with FTM to get everything from Ancestry on my computer and then can later get Legacy and import into it. PLUS restart saving records, pix, etc. to my computer when I find something on Ancestry ;)
Again, thanks so much!
Happy Holidays!
