This family history site has removed from the Internet. It has always been my practice to keep the family histories and genealogies accurate and reasonably up to date. But the files have become very large and I no longer have the time and energy to devote to the histories and cannot keep them updated.

Add to this fact that the policy of FamilyTreeMaker and Genealogy.com (both now owned by Ancestry.com) requires authors to relinquish all copyright privileges and permit Ancestry.com to offer the history as a commercial product. This means that all original text, maps, and photographs can be copied and commercially distributed by Ancestry.com.

This policy was unilaterally established by Ancestry.com and those persons using their services must agree to the policy or not be permitted to use Ancestry.com's products or services. I object to this policy and do not grant Ancestry.com the right to take my work and profit from it.
