The problem is......Ancestry has two sites that read Family Trees and they give different results. Original Instructions from a Great Lady: Okay---take a deep breath and start again. Start here: _http://www.ancestry.com/_ (http://www.ancestry.com/) . Way up at the top of the page where it says Ancestry.com and just below that where you see the masthead (or top toolbar if you want to call it that) Where it says: Home, My Ancestry, Search, Family Trees etc..... across the top. Click on FAMILY TREES. Your landing page will be here: _http://www.ancestry.com/trees/_ (http://www.ancestry.com/trees/) On this page look at the column on the right side of the page where it says FAMILY TREE RESOURCES and find the link that says SEARCH ANCESTRY WORLD TREE and click the link. That takes you here: _http://www.ancestry.com/trees/awt/main.aspx_ (http://www.ancestry.com/trees/awt/main.aspx) This is the box where you need to type in Her answer to the different results was: NOTE: This is the one that reads Family Trees in the regular Search area In the one search--the one where you are finding the NEW information, you are searching the combined AWT and WC database which is updated nightly. In the other search you are searching OWT which isn't updated on any regular basis (although when it DOES get updated it does include WC/AWT files). Since OWT hasn't been updated in a long time--you are getting the old info in that search. Hope this helps......have a great day, Gretchen ORIGINAL QUESTION: From: "Colleen Graham" Subject: Ancestry "New Look" As far as I am concerned, the new look is a complete disaster. I don't think I am the only one who is extremely upset about this. I have invested a lot of time and lots of $$ in Ancestry. You can't even view my family tree anymore. I tried a sample search of census records for someone, it came up with zero hits. This is a mess, and I don't know how to handle it. Help!!! Colleen, Reseda CA
