attaching newspaper article from FindMyPast to Ancestry tree?
« on: Tuesday 12 December 17 10:35 GMT (UK) »
Is there a way to save an newspaper article from the FindMyPast website and copy and attach the article to my family tree in Ancestry? I've downloaded articles to my desktop but  was not able to edit and attach in any way.

If you have a Windows operating system you can use the Snipping Tool. It's easy!
