| Sharing your genealogy allows you to preserve your family history in the Pedigree Resource File and share it with others around the world. A copy of the genealogy files ([[GEDCOM|GEDCOM]] format) that you submit will be preserved in the Granite Mountain Records Vault located near Salt Lake City, Utah. In addition, your genealogy may be made conveniently available to others on the Internet.<br>
| |
| | |
| You can quickly and easily submit your genealogy:<br>
| |
| | |
| #First, obtain permission from any living persons mentioned in your genealogy to submit their information to FamilySearch. Remember, notes and sources attached to an entry for a deceased person may also include information about a living person. For privacy reasons, you must remove any information about living persons if you do not have their permission to submit it.
| |
| #Second, review your notes and sources to make sure they don't contain any offensive or inappropriate statements about another person. If found, remove such information.
| |
| #Third, save your genealogy in a [[GEDCOM|GEDCOM]] file format on your personal computer. Many genealogy software programs provide the capability to save your records in a [[GEDCOM|GEDCOM]] file format (where the file is named with a .ged extension -- for example: eastleyhistory.ged). Please see the instructions provided with your software for more information.
| |
| #Fourth, submit the [[GEDCOM|GEDCOM]] file that you have created to FamilySearch. You will need to agree to the conditions for submitting your genealogy before submitting the file. For instructions, see [[Submitting to the Pedigree Resource File|Submitting to the Pedigree Resource File]].<br>
