Go here, FamilySearch.org - Family History and Genealogy Records fill in your name and email address, then down load the FREE PAF program. It is very user friendly. You can get help from the Family History Consultants at nearly any ward/branch/stake and from the Family History Centers in your area. FREE help. User friendly help.

I use Legacy - but I don't delve into the mysteries. It can be a little overkill for my needs. As a recently called family history consultant I guess I should download PAF and get used to using it - thanks for the link Iggy...


PinkCow - what exactly are you trying to search for? Something you have already entered on Legacy or are you trying to locate someone on Family Search or Ancestry? I'm not saying I can help - but I'll give it a good try...

With what is directly accessible online now I see no need to purchase any software. I actually didn't realize people still purchased those programs,

I've found most of what I have needed for at least the last two years using my Ancestry.com membership......worth its weight in gold !!
