Member Since: October 2019 Posts: 2 Send Message	Hi everyone, my dad did a lot of work on our tree, he has since died. How would I go about gaining access to/gaining custody of our family tree ? I know he would have been pleased that I was getting involved, surely it can’t remain on here permanently inaccessible? Your help and advice would be much appreciated ????
