Ancestry Website
Family Tree
The family tree is very much a work in progress, so please remember that as you go through the information. And please let me know if you find inaccurate info or have more info to contribute.
This software has a lot of great functionality, including the ability to choose 2 people and see how they are actually related (go to "Charts" and choose "Relationships"). You might be surprised to find out that 2 people are related multiple times. The accuracy of information shown on the charts and other reports depends upon the accuracy of the information in the family tree, so please let me know if you find any errors in the family tree.
You can use the link below to go to a portion of the website that contains the family tree. You will see an interactive version of the family tree similar to trees you can see on ancestry.com, familysearch.org, and other ancestry websites.

The interactive family tree is a subset of this website, it has a different look and feel from the rest of the website. This is because it is a third-party tool and comes with built-in security that will be compromised if changes to the software are not done properly. I am investigating how to make the changes without compromising the security, but it might be a while before I am able to do that. So for now, the interactive family tree will look different that the rest of the website as I feel security is more important than aesthetics.
People Currently Alive Will Not Display To Guests
People viewing the website without registering and logging into the family tree software will not be able to see any information on people who are currently alive that are in the family tree. People who are alive will display as Private with no other information. Having these people in the family tree is necessary in order to have connections to our ancestors.
People Currently Alive Will Display to Logged In Members
If you are a family member and you are logged in to the family tree portion of this website, you will be able to see SOME info on people who are currently alive if they are in the family tree. However, the information displayed is minimal and does not include email addresses, addresses, phone numbers, etc. If a family member registers on the family tree portion of the website and adds an email address to their account, they have the option to allow other family members to see that information in order to message them through the family tree software. However, that email address is not required and it will not show up on the family tree itself - it is only viewable to other family members who have registered for and are logged into the family tree portion of this website.
Only Family Members Will Be Approved and Able To Log In
Only family members will be allowed to register for the family tree software on this website. Once approved by the owner of this website, they will then be able to sign in to the family tree portion of the website.
Please note that registering for and logging into the family tree portion of this website is completely separate from registering for and logging into the rest of the website in order to add photos. I apologize for this inconvenience, but they are separate pieces of software and I currently have no control over this issue.
