To me it is well worth it. No more looking at miles and miles of census microfilm. I still have to look at microfilm but no where near as much :) Also, there are tons of great databases that will give you the info you need to obtain the original documents.
An added note, in case y'all missed it, a while back Legacy posted a tip on how to set up a second monitor on your computer. That bit of advice has been a Godsend! I can have Ancesty pulled up on one monitor and type in Legacy on the other. No more going back and forth, back and forth, to try and enter data! michele ----- Original Message ----- From: Michael Berry To: LegacyUserGroup@legacyfamilytree.com Sent: Wednesday, August 27, 2008 8:01 AM Subject: [LegacyUG] Ancestry.com Is this worth joining? It's sort of expensive. Is the free trial period (abt 14 days) long enough to give it a fair trial? Michael No virus found in this incoming message.
