Hi L. Ray,
I’m sorry I just saw your last comment, I LOVE that you are working at the Senior Centre to help those with no subscriptions to paid sites find out more!
What paid sites do for you is guide you to potential family members with source suggestions....they seem like a wonderful hand to guide you, but also they lead you to some absolute messes of family trees that have accepted every suggestion from the moon and back!
I think many wikitreers would rather help your and your members find sources through Familysearch, as an example of a free website.
Let us know what your genealogy class member think? You could add more G2G questions, wikitreers could help them out?
It’s not the easiest route... no suggestions.... you do the work.... but we are here to help and I hope your class like the sound of that?
And you sound like you are in love with wikitree just like me so we can help member learn to replace Ancestry citations with Familysearch?
