1.2 Geni (www.geni.com)

Open Google Chrome; select Other Bookmarks, GC1-1Jan2011, select Genealogy. select Geni-Home. Joined on 1/4/2011 by invitation from Ingemar Isaksson.

This website is very interesting and contains links to over 50,000,000 people, living and dead. Its intent is to link together everyone in the world. No cost to belong. I initially thought I would limit my entries to my immediate family, but now am thinking that I may contribute as many names as I possibly can. (1/16/2011)

1-3. Family Tree Maker (FTM) - Open My Documents; select Box -Genealogy; open Johnson-Jensen. There are no photos (7587 entries as of 9/5/2010). Other files are All the People (7587 entries, no photos), Glenn27Jun2009 (7587 entries, no photos), but since these are duplicate files, they may as well be deleted at some future date. Another file is Johnson-Jensen1 (38 entries) which is a GEDCOM for Ancestry.

1-3. Personal Ancestry File (PAF) - Open My Documents; select Box - Genealogy; select PAF-Johnson 5.2 Copy 1 (7623 entries as of 9/5/2010, photos for first five generations only). Was unable to include in Google Chrome Bookmarks. Forget about further tries. Do not intend to add photos, because they are already sorted and saved in MyPictures (PAF Photos) and can be looked at there.
