They pretty much do already, don't they and they are forcing out and buying
up everything they can get their hands on. They have quadrupled their
prices in just a few years and have managed to get their hands on
information I never intended for anyone to ever have to pay for. At the
moment it isn't, but I wonder just how long it will be.

It sometimes seems as if, sooner or later, Ancestry will own
the majority of the big on-line sites and I think that's sad
or maybe scary is a better word. When there's only one game
in town they can charge what they wish.

| Linda,
|
| In a similar vein, someone from another list told me
yesterday she had
| talked to Genealogy.com about a subscription matter and
was told they will
| be merging with Ancestry.com. I knew the same parent
company owned both web
| sites, but hadn't heard this before. No idea when. Lots of
changes in our
| genealogy world!

| I spoke with HeritageQuest yesterday. It was time to renew
| my membership to regular HQ. I was told me they are no
| longer renewing (or selling new) memberships. The HQ
regular
| site will be the site that sells their products and the
| HQonline site will have all the searchable records.
|
| I asked about a membership to HeritageQuestonline and she
| told me they are not selling memberships to individuals.
You
| will have to access HeritageQuestonline.com through your
| library.
|
| You will need to contact your own county library. Some are
| allowing from home log-ons but others are restricting use
to
| in-house at the library. Our library is offering it only
| in-house at the genealogy library.
