Re: Personal relationships.

Please do not add the personal relationship information in the 'Reason This Information Is Correct' boxes (i.e., This is my mother, I was there, I visited the cemetery, etc). Please attempt to attach real sources from Research Help (hints) or from other sources. These types of comments will more than likely be overwritten when valid sources are attached. They also project ownership, and as you probably know, FamilySearch is one big family tree for everyone.

Make sure you have added an email address in your Settings!

You can make it private or public as desired. I only had a recovery email in my Settings and I believe this is why I did not receive notification regarding a photo in Memories.

I've been teaching some classes while we are staying in McCall, Idaho. It has been really fun to help people start and grow their family trees.

I am reminded that the app and the online program have distinct differences. The online program definitely gives more functionality and options, BUT, the app has a couple of cool feactures that the program does not. I suggest using BOTH! Use the app while you are out and about and have 'waiting' time. Use the online program when you are home and can really dive into things.
