When my father passed away, the only references I could find in his possessions regarding my ancestry was a few hand scribbled notes. No photos. No nothing.
He had obviously been trying to find out more about his family and I decided there and then that I would leave a complete history of mine, and my wife's family for our children.
In 2010 I searched the internet for a free genealogy program and discovered My Heritage. And I never looked back. By the time the family I had discovered had grown to 250, I was quite happy to pay a subscription to continue growing the family ,and being able to continue publishing to the My Heritage Website, even though it wouldn`t have cost a penny to continue growing it only on my computer.
Smart Matching ,which was exclusive to My Heritage was a great help in discovering my family on other peoples trees, and in recent years when Record Matching was introduced (at an extra subscription), I was again happy to subscribe, even though I am a pensioner, with not a lot of money to throw around.The great thing about this is that in the background both Smart Matching, and Record Matching is going on 24/7 in the background saving hours of physically searching for information by hand.
I now have over 2500 names on my Family Tree, it is more than complete, and I now continue to research because I`ve been bitten by the genealogy bug. Over thirty family Site Members also have access to all my research, and can download any of my research ,documents or photos from the Site to their own computers.
In summary, I would recommend My Heritage to a friend.
