If their collection of resources is large enough, I can afford $40.00/year. I already am signed up for Ancestry.com. If they don't offer more or different source than I already have at Ancestry, then it's not worth it.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'>Opinions???<o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'>Thanks!!!<o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'>Marcus Flansburg<o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'>Logan, UT</span><span style='color:#1F497D'> </span><o:p></o:p></p></div></div></body></html>
