I agree with you. I have a lot of free information and photos at Find A Grave that have been there for years. Ancestry is buying up everything they can get their hands on. Since others like you and me have donated information to Find A Grave, it should remain free without the need of a subscription to access it.

Many of us also have spent many hours adding to Findagrave, yes it too is free, but for how long, as many of your know it's now been sold to Ancestry.com. My fear is that Family Search will also be sold, so I've decided it's not worth the effort and I've added very little to Findagrave since I heard of the sale, I've gained much from that website also. I'm all about helping and even paying for sponsorship of pages or trees, but having others to pay for what I've freely given is not fair in my opinion.
