I started dabbling a few years ago, and Ancestry.com provided a decent amount of info for the United States, including newspaper articles. Now, it is just awful. About 2 week ago, I thought I would start up again, and I am extremely disappointed! Everything I had saved to my family tree was gone was gone, and you can't get it back! Plus you now have to pay for newspaper articles, etc., which was formerly included. In a nutshell, you pay more and get less! I'm going to look elsewhere. This is a huge rip off!
