Dutch and German copyright laws?
« on: Wednesday 26 April 17 19:27 BST (UK) »
I have Dutch censuses and parish register entries and German parish register entries. I would like to scan them and put them on my Ancestry tree. Is there any problem with this? cb

I don't know the answer, but is your Ancestry tree open (for all to see) or closed (i.e. only you can view)? If the latter...who's to know!
