But does any of the old GR lot still have access to Steve Priestley's tree? I need access but it's not allowing me

Thanks
Kim

You can’t get access to a tree on Genes without the owners permission. Have you tried contacting him. Although if he has changed his email address it won’t get through.

Namelessone, thanks for replying.

He died a few years ago. We were related and I did have access to his tree but now I can't find it

Hi Kim

If you can't find it it was probably removed.

Is there any way you can contact his immediate family who may have a copy?

GR may have removed it as he died 10 year ago so no longer a member

GR never remove trees.

If it's been deleted, he or one of his family must have done it.


ADDED:

Is it no longer listed under "View other trees" > "Trees shared with me" at the top of your own tree pages on GR?

Old genealogists never die.....they just lose their census.

Thank you so much for that. As you can tell I don't come on here very often, and when I do the site has changed format every time, but thanks to you I have now found it.

Kim :-) :-)
