  • anybody connected their FTM 2017 to Familysearch

    Just went into my tree, and a box came up asking if I wanted to link it to Familysearch ??? is this a good idea ? and would it affect the link between FTM and Ancestry.

    I have and it makes no difference to the ancestry link but you get hints from family Search as well - they are shown as blue squares under the green leaves.

        Be aware that you have to register and log in to Family Search first. Then when you search for a person, all the facts surrounding that person that you have on FTM are transferred to Family Search and a little tree is made with the parents, spouse and children of that person together with all the vital facts. This little tree is then made public. I have several of these little trees from various searches I have made from FTM. I can see no way of making them private or deleting them (perhaps someone can advise) - only living people are private.
        I have stopped using this search now and only use FS directly.

          Just to add - this only occurs if you merge the new fact you have found on FS into your FTM tree
