Subject: Genealogy Data Transfer
To whom it may concern,
My name is Patrick and I’m looking for some support or guidance on an issue we have with transferring an incredibly large family tree. What started off as a free site to store our family history has grown to over 12,000 members. We currently use Family Echo and worried that at some point this site might be eliminated, a data security breach or someone possibly deleting information. Because it has grown so immense I don’t know how to transfer that to an Ancestry or similar site. I did reach out to Ancestry.com but they couldn’t assist me, I also have reached out to State Genealogy in Nebraska, but they haven’t responded to my emails. HELP!
Thank You,
Patrick Peterson
