I think you will find that downloads and support for PAF ended in July 2013, the reason given being that advances in technology, strong alternatives from third parties, and the need to focus on the latest Family Search initiatives have diminished the need for PAF as part of the Family Search offering.

Whilst I can not vouch personally, being an FTM aficionado, they suggest you might wish to try Ancestral Quest, Legacy Family Tree or RootsMagic as freebie alternatives.

Why don't you download one of the multitude of FREE FT programs?

Familysearch has a good one................PAF

Legacy is free and you can have as many trees as you like. But they do not provide you with other ancestry data and you cannot search others trees. Though you may be able to with the paid for Deluxe version..

Free suits me as I have my tree and about six others that I am helping people with, find it easier to put into tree format.

Tribal Pages .. one can ask to look at another person's tree (you can have more than one) and you do it by invite.

The short answer is NO

What you have to do is have a 2nd email account and then you have a 2nd free tree under that name.

The only genealogical site I know that does allow you to have as many trees as you want is Ancestry.

Genes have been promising this facility for some time. But to date do not appear to be doing much to facilitate their customers requests.

Does anyone know if it is possible to have a second family tree on the same account. I need to do some research, but don't want to add it to my tree and am finding endless pieces of paper really confusing!
