I borrowed a book from the library which had a CD in it with almost a dozen other genealogy programs - demos. I took a quick look at each one, then decided I would be better off asking for opinions. I would greatly appreciate any input on which program(s) list members use either in combination with or in the stead of Family Tree Maker. These are the names of the demos I have (if you use something not listed here, please tell me about it): Clooz Legacy Geneweaver Genelines Ancestral Quest Rootsmagig GEDmark World Place Finder/Advisor GenSmarts SiteFinder I know there are many others as well.
