There is one easy solution to all this Don’t share your tree on ancestry and set your tree to private Ancestry just supply the tools we as researchers put the info on there (right or wrong) Craig
From: Edward Rodrigues Sent: Tuesday, November 20, 2012 5:30 AM To: azores@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Ancestory.com...My relative but wrong information ... My understanding is if you are the original person that took the picture you have the copy right. I believe if you posted the photo first and it belongs to you unless its someone else photo. I know that they have a way that you can place a lable over the top of the photo. I see it on photos for sale on e-bay all the time. But I don't know how to do it. Maybe someone on the list know how. You can view the photo but it has writing over the top so its worthless if you try to make a copy of it.

This is not a Web site. Azores GenWeb is a Web site. Ancestry and FamilySearch are Web sites (albeit dynamic Web sites). This is a list serv. It has an email list which most people use. It also has a forum or web board or archive where messages are stored and can be read by anybody. Google searches can crawl the board/forum. I can remove messages and I do. These are usually sent out in error (someone wanted to email Aunt Ann and the Azores email addy pops up and it goes out to the whole list). I also have the ability to delete the entire thing if I want to. So even the forum/board/archive may not stay "forever." Even when using the Internet Archive or Wayback Machine, I can't always get pages to display. It doesn't work on dynamic webpages. I'm talking about the static ones. And you have to have the URL from way back when as well. I can't imagine that anyone on this list wouldn't want info about their ancestors out there. I've had messages where people have had to hunt me down (I used to have AOL) and I find a new cousin! The purpose of this list is to help people research their genealogy and make connections. As the list grows, I really have to adhere more and more to our purpose. So don't be surprised when I ask for certain non-genealogy topics to stop being posted. I used to say we average 10-15 messages a day. I just ran the stats and we are averaging 14.73 messages a day. Only twice this year did we have less than 400 messages that month. Guess I need to change the group description to 15-20 messages a day. This is a lot of messages, especially for those who are still in the work force. So the focus needs to remain on genealogy. And with that many messages, you can see why a good subject/topic in the email is needed entice as many people to read your email as you can. Hope this clears up what a list-serv is and some of the things we do here.
