Subject: GEDCOM (resend) From: Cindy Sidwell Date: February 22, 1999 Sorry, this is a resend! I forgot to turn off my HTML in my last so I thought I would make it text for you! Wow! Last night I downloaded the gedcom files, very fast I might add - I'm lucky enough to have a cable modem! The speed of downloading made me think the importing process would probably be about the same speed...WRONG! I started the import at about 6pm, and when I went to bed at 11pm it was only 71% done (FTM 5.0). I can tell you all, it was worth the wait! I got up this morning with a wealth of information about my mothers side of the family. Hers was the first name I found, Evelyn OLIVER. Surprising, I found my dad's name Willard YEARGIN, wrong birth date, said his wife was an Unknown OLIVER! Someone was close. Now that I have found this information, how do I correct it with the database and now I have to figure out how to import what I need into my own database. How do I submit information of ancestors that are listed that I have their parents names? I'm so excited to have found all this mailing list! Aloha!
