My first post so Hello to all.

For presentation purposes, I was doing a trawl of reviews of family tree creator software,  I clicked on a link and ended up at the Rootschat site(?).  The downside is that until stumbling upon Rootschat I'd thought I was reasonably 'genned up'!

FindMyPast subscriber - No happy conclusion with the presentation software.

Hi Ruddings, welcome to Rootschat  :) you will love it here.

If you put something along the lines of "Family tree software" in the search bar at the top of the page a list of topics already on Rootschat will come up, you may find some help on those, just click on one to have a look.

Regards
Frank.
