I would just add that existing multiple accounts with the same email were allowed to remain - I have one too - but new ones now require a different email address.

John,

I would question whether it is a good idea to run more than one tree. I thought the same when I first started over ten years ago but it was short lived as it caused more problems than it was intended to solve.

After about three months I reverted back to a single tree and have remained with that ever since.

Correct me if I am wrong but.........

I thought you could use the same email address but different user name/password?

yes and no. You can have as many free accounts as u want so long as they have a different email address, one tree per account. You only need one paid ac.

Afternoon to y'all

Probably a very old topic ... but ... can anyone tell me if it is possible for me to have more than one tree at any one time - I have in mind both maternal and paternal trees in order to make "moving around" easier ... is this a possibility or a NONO?

All/any advice appreciated

John
