Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much for stopping by, Sheika - we hope you enjoyed the clip!
Very good explanation Krista, and very timely for me. Thanks so much
Crista had a poor connection to the Internet during this session. At one point she was going to show a tip of how, when you don't have a death date, you can somehow mark the person as "deceased" somewhere so that individual will show up to others in your public tree. Otherwise with no death date they will only show up as "Private".
When viewing any person in your tree, there is a QUICK EDIT option. There you will find the Living/Deceased toggle button.
Great info as always and I learned one thing I did not know. Thanks!
I keep my tree private because mormons have posthumously baptized some of my close relatives, an incredible insult & highly disrespectful to me, my family & the church to which we belong (& our ancestors belonged for generations). A very distant cousin had the nerve to ask me for info on my aunt so she could have her "baptized" - this never married aunt had no direct descendents. I told the cousin no way was she getting the information. I hope my aunt remains happily Methodist in the afterlife.
What can you do about someone who down loads your photos and re-uploads them as their own photo?
How do you get a living person back to private from a person's tree that was done on a 14 day free trial and now has no access to the tree. My daughter is showing as having died when she is very much alive. The tree she has been put on by her brother is not active. I came across it in a hint. He is not going to build the tree.
No mormons getting my family & "baptizing" them. Unfortunately, I didn't set my trees to "private" soon enough & some self-righteous distant cousins "baptized" some of my close relatives. Shame on them & their arrogance! For distant ancestors, the information is out there; I'm not keeping anything from anyone. I don't "steal" from others; I don't trust them to be right. I have a genealogy certificate & do my own research. I share with 1st cousins & closer who swear not to "baptize" anyone.
If it's of a close relative, I know your irritation. If it's a distant ancestor, I feel that the photo belongs to the family & other descendents of that person have the right to put that photo in their tree. Long ago (or not so long ago), not everyone had the money to make multiple copies of a photo so the one & only photo of someone stayed with one person/descendent. I found a photo of a multiple great-grandparent on another tree & used it in my tree. She's my g-g-g-grandma, too, after all.
Geez, I'm sorry this upsets you. Sometimes there is no other way to get the info or photos because someone in the family, who you've not had contact with for a long time or maybe never, has photos of the same family members you have. I cherish finding that kind of stuff. Sometimes they have the same photos you do, so why bother to post your own if they are identical? Sorry if I step on any toes. I don't mean to.
