Re: [LegacyUG] DNA testing
Go for the FamilyTree DNA testing: https://www.familytreedna.com/ Very effective. They let you 'add in' your DNA test from Ancestry - so you get both sides of the testing - so do both. Very impressed with the practical results for genealogy research - we confirmed an entirely new wing of the family - that linked from the pre-records period - this would never have happened without this testing. Even though there are few people with our surname - we were able to sort out the surname into 5 completely different families. Only DNA has let us accomplish this. It's essential - do it.

Re: [LegacyUG] Dropbox
Would someone who uses Dropbox please post a simple, step by step explanation of just how to automatically save our backups to Dropbox? Please include every possible step. Thanks.
