There is also PAF (PersonalAncestoralFile) which you can download for free through LDS website. Many folks use only the PAF and are quite satisfied. Although I personally use FamilyTreeMaker, they are both GEDCOM compatible which allows for easy transfer of information to those who also use GEDCOM compatible software. Guess the main point is to purchase or download free, whichever you prefer, something that has GEDCOM compatibility. Best of luck Liz. I've been watching your posts and all the good work you and your daughter are doing for others on this site. Good on you!
