I opened my family tree software yesterday and found ... nothing! Just an empty programme as though it had just been installed. My four trees and 1300+ people had disappeared .
Enter OH who solved the problem. Phew! But it took a while before my knees stopped feeling weak. I began digging about in the family history in 1985 when everything involved good old fashioned paper records so I’ve gathered a fair archive. In recent years I’ve put lots on the computer and new information comes directly via the internet so is saved that way. But I still print out some records and keep paper files just in case. So I’m keeping the digital stuff just in case I lose the paper files and holding on to my paper stuff in case the digital records disappear in to the ether. I thought computers and the internet was supposed to make life easier?
