Hi everyone I have just paid my membership to this site only to find that I am barred from looking at other members' family trees. I mention this because I have seen whom I believe to be an uncle of mind but I am loathe to send an email just in case he does not know he even appears on this site. When I attempt to view the tree, in order to find the originator to the tree, I am told that I cannot view it. I am in a Catch22 situation and would welcome any advice as to how I should proceed to confirm the information I have found. Thanks Bernie |

Your e-mail will go to whoever put the tree on, not to your possible uncle, so you can ask the tree owner for more information without alerting your "relative". |

Hi Bernard Regarding viewing other peoples trees - they have to give you permission to view - just like you have to give permission for anybody to view whatever you have in your tree. When you contact somebody/or they contact you - you then have the option to let them view/let you view trees Hope this makes sense!! Liz |
