Bob, I ran in to a distant relative that had information that I very much
needed. I had contacted her through Ancestry. She pumped me for 4every
scrap of information I had but never gave me any information. She told me her
Dad didn't want any of it public. When I asked her to verify who she was
and her connection to me she said "read my book when it is published". I
contacted Ancestry, sent them copies of the emails and they contacted her.
They revoked her membership. At that point, I made my trees private. I do
release a great deal of information but I ask for verification first.
Ma
