This past summer I got involved in doing some family history with my mom and my great uncle who are basically Family history fanatics. My hubby and I have done at least an hour of family history every Sunday since then and it has been such a rewarding experience. We combined both sides of our family and then went through our PAF file and tried our best to fix any duplicates and such. When the new site was made available to our area we got right on and took the tutorials together and last night we started putting my husband's fathers ancestors on the site. It took three hours because some of the information on the site was messed up, but we were able to link a very limited amount of information to several long lines that we would never have been able to find, it was SO exciting. We also found out through researching about this new site that with all the duplicate temple ordinances that are done in the church they could close down three whole temples (the busiest ones too)!!! that is one of the main reasons that site is so important because it significantly reduces duplicates and helps the work be done for those who really need it! If you get a chance you should really check it out! (www.newfamilysearch.com)
p.s.-we went to the temple on Halloween and got to seal some family names and it was AMAZING!!!!!
