Family Search

Family Search are dispensing with the current homepage in a week.

There seems to be more than ever to look through on the new homepage.

I was hoping that the site may become easier to use, as in the old days!! It doesn`t take you where you want to be as quickly, may be me and old age!!

I have read all the helpful hints and tips on RootsChat but I still can't mange to use FamilySearch properly any more. It was such a useful free service but now I can't navigate it! When the grey lines start pulsating it takes forever for the page to form. At  my age sometimes things take a while to sink in but they change it all so often.

The previous last time I used it (if that makes sense), I found some information but then went to another page. When I went back I couldn`t re-find the information.

I seem to have so much going on at the moment, other various issues to think about, some things fall out of my brain!
