There is a lot more mtDNA so they are more likely to be successful finding it than if they did YDNA tests.

]]> Comment on Review of Newspapers.com by Diana Clevenger-Stephens http://genvoyage.com/2012/11/30/review-of-newspapers-com/#comment-491 Tue, 09 Apr 2013 18:52:59 +0000 http://genvoyage.com/?p=602#comment-491 Thank you for this review. I’m an able researcher, but my week trial membership of Newspapers.com was a big disappointment (used it for three days and cancelled it today). As you mentioned, the search engine was weak and spotty and the newspaper selection was limited. I’m going to try Newspaper Archives for three months. It has a much more impressive list of newspapers.

]]> Comment on RootsMagic on the Mac with CrossOver Mac 11 by Beirne Konarski http://genvoyage.com/2012/04/29/rootsmagic-on-the-mac-with-crossover-mac-11/#comment-473 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 23:43:23 +0000 http://genvoyage.com/?p=319#comment-473 I had that problem too. The way I got around it was to type Windows path rather than selecting it from the file dialogue, so for example I ended up typing “C:\Konarski main Media” for the media. Your file will likely be somewhere other than the root of the C drive, though.

I am running Crossover 12.1.2 and RootsMagic 6.0.0.5. Everytime I try to set my preferences for RootsMagic files (media, data, etc.) the program freezes, or I get an error message. Any suggestions? I’m new to Mac and so learning as I go…
Thanks.
