Member Since: August 2009 Posts: 771 Send Message	I want to send a gedcom file to my brother who is unemployed and so on very limited income. I'm sure that I've read on these boards about free programmes you can download which allow you to read a gedcom file. Can anyone give me any clues please? Thanks in advance
