PAF User Alert

This was a notice provided a few weeks ago by PGS Education Director, Bob Bryan:

If you are one of the many PAF users who is considering moving to another genealogy database program, this item will be of interest to you.

 

Familysearch.org is recommending that PAF users change to a new program and they suggest one of the following:

• Legacy
• Ancestral Quest
• RootsMagic

RootsMagic is the only one of these programs with a substantial number of users in PGS and has a user group meeting each month, Sep-May. You can download a free version of the software from http://www.rootsmagic.com/essentials/.

 

Also, a series of short videos has been posted at http://www.youtube.com/user/RootsMagicTV explaining how to move your PAF data to RootsMagic, how to customize RootsMagic to look and feel like PAF and more. Take a look and see what you think.
