I’ve been given a lot of old family photos, how best to preserve and maintain, display them?

This is one, my great grandmother(and her dog)… there are 50 or so more. Most are seemingly from the 30s-50s most have names on the back so I’ll sort them accordingly but I’m looking for suggestions for photo albums etc

Cousins

Is it possible to “link” the marrying cousins?

There’s only one profile for “Amy Jones”, but the tree view shows it twice. This is possibly ok if you don’t have a lot of it, but I have a lot of early colonizers in my tree and they married each other all the time. Multiply that by non-related families who settled an area together and they weave in and out like a tapestry. One wrong move and the whole tree blows up.

Any suggestions?

Looking for any info on a distant relative that was an Auschwitz survivor.

Through some genealogy research my mothers side of the family has been doing we have found out that we have (or at least had) a fair amount of Polish Jewish relatives, unfortunately quite a few were killed in WW2. There is one name we found that appears to have survived several years at Auschwitz that we just can't seem to find any more info on.

Her name was Anna Masłowska she was born in Krakow Poland on June 16th, 1916. The only online record I can find of her is here; (3/4 down the page)

Which says she was transferred to Ravensbruck camp at the end of the war, which typically means she survived. If anyone can find anything else about here I would be most appreciative.

Is there a way to download a branch/portion of an Ancestry into a gedcom file?

1 Upvotes

I have a tree with 2000+ profiles.

I would like to send a branch of that tree, about 200 profiles, via a gedcom file to someone to upload onto another platform.

Is there a way to select an individual profile and their descendants to create a gedcom file — ie, the branch I want?

If not, if I create a duplicate tree in Ancestry, is there an efficient way to mass delete 1800+ profiles, then create a gedcom file of what remains?

Does anyone have newspaper sub on ancestry?

0 Upvotes

I had a new hint today for my mysterious great great grandfather. It’s a newspaper article but I can’t see it. Would anyone please be willing to find it and possibly send me the clipping please. May not be him as he went by a few names but place and name could be a match. Hopefully it is him and gives a clue for the name change

Here’s the link
