The 250 limit is for MyHeritage, not Geni!<br /><br />"Basic users may add unlimited profiles, merge duplicates, view enhanced relationship paths and add up upload up to 1GB of photos, videos and documents (about 1,000 photos) for free. However, users who expect more may choose to upgrade to a Pro Subscription. See: http://help.geni.com/entries/471431-Is-Geni-free-<br /><br />FYI: Many folks will hit a 'connecting point' within 4-8 generations. By merging in at a 'connecting point', then one doesn't have to enter all those existing ancestors, and can focus on adding their uniquely new information.DanCornetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05605272736136672272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26204193.post-38510497083914232602014-09-17T18:35:20.060-07:002014-09-17T18:35:20.060-07:00Diane, you can't upload a GEDCOM to Geni.com a...Diane, you can't upload a GEDCOM to Geni.com any more. It creates too many duplicates that somebody has to work thorugh. You can add your families one person at a time, which is not the best way. To extend my lines back so they latch into the World Family Tree, I just loaded ancestors, not siblings of ancestors. If you add more than 250 persons, you then need a Geni subscription. So there are problems there.I have a comp subscription to Geni courtesy of MyHeritage.<br /><br />A better solution might be a GEDCOM added to WikiTree, which is FREE. You will have to try to match your tree persons to persons already in the tree. The problem here is that they want to limit how many persons you add at a time so that the matching is manageable. The WikiTree universal tree is not as large as Geni's, but I think it is more accurate. It doesn't have as many medieval and royal/noble persons as Geni does. <br />Randy Seaverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17477703429102065294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26204193.post-37992959786270873502014-09-17T17:47:20.646-07:002014-09-17T17:47:20.646-07:00Randy.

I only have a tree on Ancestry and have not yet set one up on any other site. Maybe it's time to upload a GEDCOM.<br />Thanks,<br />DianeDiane Gould Hallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15362418860289987479noreply@blogger.com
