Comments

thank you Chris.  I have a lot of info from FamilySearch and a family tree built there as well.  I was looking for others of the family to fill in some gaps.  Is this the wrong forum to make connections with others of the same family?

Hey Dawn,

A great way to handle this kind of thing - especially since there are so many people/profiles that may benefit.  Create a Free Space profile for the list (so long as it is not from a copyrighted source) and transcribe the information.

Then you can link each of the profiles to the Free space profile.

Add a Free Space profile by clicking on the drop-down menu upper right corner of this page, Add > New Thing.

Here's an example of a Free space profile that is being used this way.
