Gedcom upload to GenesReUnited

Post by Poacher » 30 Mar 2009 08:52

I recently uploaded a GEDCOM from FH to GenesReunited. It was a complete disaster,families were all mixed up.

I then re submitted a GEDCOM from Family Tree Maker and it loaded ok.

Any ideas what went wrong or was it that Genes had a bad 5 minutes?

Sounds more like a GR problem.

Next time try using the split tree helper to remove all

Multimedia, Sources, Repositories etc and consider removing all events except those needed for GR.

See http://www.fhug.org.uk/cgi-bin/index.cg ... ews&id=134 for more hints on using FH with GR
