Carole:
Thank youo for your input. As I stated above, I decided to do it all by hand. It now appears that there is just as much work either way, i.e. upload a GEDCOM, wait for it to be reviewed and then add comments, etc. Or just do them one by one doing most everything for each profile as I go. I decided on the latter as it seems to offer me more control. I think that need for precision and control is a German kind of thing. Now that I know about these ancestors, a lot of my personal characteristics make a lot more sense.
