I just found out the hard way that anyone can change, delete, merge and add people to the free version of Family Tree from familysearch.

I just found out the hard way that anyone can change, delete, merge and add people to the free version of Family Tree from familysearch.

Someone merged my tree with theirs and It erased about 900 ancestors and 3 to 5 generations. I am so glad I keep another tree on ancestry.com and a Gedcom File in three different laptops for backup updating weekly.

Although I love familysearch for research, I was not aware that others can change your tree and erase years of research.

Lesson learned
