Can I send family information from FamilySearch into Ancestry and vice versa? Thanks!

    @J. Britt Franklin You can if you are a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. You can link your FamilySearch account with your ancestry account and then use the FamilySearch button to sync data and sources between the two sites. Further information on that process is available at Ancestry's Help site: https://support.ancestry.com/s/article/Church-of-Jesus-Christ-Ancestry-Membership?language=en_US

    Be aware that Ancestry creates its sources differently from FamilySearch, so look at how the sources transfer across and determine if you want to build them that way or simply create them by hand.
