Hi All,

I am related to GOD. As for taking the Bible, as proof of anything, is a bit naive. How can you know that it isn't all made up. As for Adam and Eve.........

I am having difficulty, even getting back to the 1700's, with absolute proof they are my rellies. If I cant confirm they don't go on.

My question over the point of Erse was really to TOM [4362244].

Hi, Ann (Heinz 57)

All Christians believe that they are the children of God!

However, this is not relevant at this stage of my tree! I still have a lot of work to do, making connections, etc. I just think it would be easier if I could see it on Genes and be able to plot a route more clearly!

It comes across from several postings that the English Records are far from full or correct, even at late at 1700, which, I think, goes to prove that Ireland was a much more civilised and advanced country, far earlier that the rest of Britain. Record keeping is an indication of civilisation. If the people were busy fighting, there was no time left for keeping records, education or building.

O.K. So conclusion - No one can help!

Wrong Lindy. You asked for help to get your information onto Genes in a simply way. We told you you need to produce a GedCom file, GR told you you needed a GedCom file. You did not do that (I even offered to do it for you!).

You said you 'have GedCom but haven't installed it yet'. You don't install GedCom you install a program that CREATES GedCom files, we still don't know if you have one of these, nor if you do which one!

You claim you can not install whatever it is you have
"it is my daughter's laptop and it would mean copying all programs and files on her laptop, to secure them, before loading GedCom. This requires her pemission ??**?? and time to do this !!**!!

I have worked with computers since aug 1970, and I'v never heard such c**p. Sure she can make a back-up if she is especially paranoid about installing a new program, but no more than the one she normally takes anyway.

Oh and Thanks for the thanks.

Hi, Robert!

Sorry that you seem to be a bit upset! But this answer really doesn't seem to be THAT simple to me. It seems to me that it involves a lot of copying, whichever way it is done.

Maybe the end results are worth it, but at the moment, there are other pressing needs.

However, if I ever get there I'll post a Success Story and you can tell me, you told me so in the first place! And then, I'll be able to thank you!

All the Best,
Lindy.
