I had some questions for new setups. If this isnt the right mailing list, kindly direct me to the correct one, and I will post there. I thought this was a good place to start. Apologies also if it's too much information, I think typing it out might just help me sort out my thoughts.<br> <br> Ive got a GEDCOM database already. It is pretty complete and dates from 1620s-1860s. My goal is to put this database online, and allow other members of my family to continue from the main DB. Naturally, I welcome other members to download this DB to help them. But I am really only concerned about the continuation from the larger DB. <br> <br> For example. I downloaded phpgedview a few weeks ago, uploaded this main DB. I had not yet connected my own family to my descendants in this larger DB. Then a few days ago I did. So now I want to update the DB, but I really only need to add the few relatives that this involves. I don't need/want to re-upload the entire DB, just so I can add a dozen people. I use GRAMPS on my desktop, and I can export only a defined branch of the tree. I also see that there is the ability to have and maintain several GEDCOMs on phpgedview. So is this the preferred/accepted method? Have people upload their own family's GEDCOM and somehow connect it to the larger GEDCOM? Is this possible?<br> <br> I think I am on the right track, I was just wondering if this was how other people handle similar situations?<br> <br> Thanks for all your help!<br> <br> -peter<br> </font></font> </body> </html> |
