Update:
WorldConnect family trees (last updated on 9 August 2021) will be retired on 15 April 2023 and migrated to Ancestry as a new free-access collection later in the year. I plan to leave my database at WorldConnect.

WorldConnect has been part of Rootsweb for a long time. It is a collection of Gedcoms uploaded by people like me so researchers can access these databases for free. In 2000, Ancestry bought Rootsweb. My genealogical database (Gedcom) was at WorldConnect from 2005. Then Ancestry took WorldConnect off line for a few years. Now WorldConnect is back on Rootsweb with databases available to search through. However as of August 2021 no new uploads or updated databases were allowed. This meant my database is stuck as it was in April 2020.

I have not, as of yet, put my database on Ancestry because people need to pay to see it.

My database has over 9000 entries with lots of source notes.



Click here to go to the Index of my database. After 15 April 2023 this link will not work. It is currently named Saylor 200427.

Searching the boxes of forenames and surnames will search only my database.

Alternatively, scroll down to the alphabet list of letters and select the first letter of the surname of interest. Then select a surname. That will take you to a list of people in my database with that surname. This is helpful when spelling of names is variable.
