Summary: Getting started again
Comment: I was pleased to find Family Tree Maker No. 16 available on Amazon. I had been wanting to get started on my family history again after I lost it a couple years ago. This updaated Family Tree Maker is good to use and even better I didn't have to go out shopping for it. I will use the service again.

Summary: FTM 16 is the best working version
Comment: I'm using version 16, which appears to be the last best one that is fully functional (versions 17 and 2008 don't measure up to 16's level).

Summary: Broderbund Family Tree Maker 16
Comment: I have used the Broderbund Family Tree Maker since version 6 came out. I love the way it is set up and all the freedom it gives me to input family files and history along with scrapbook items and photos. It lets me as thourough as I want to be and keeps everything very organized and when I am ready, I can print books, charts, canons or any number of family-related information. Seeing as this is the last Broderbund version, this is probably the last one I will buy.

Summary: FAmily Tree Maker Version 16
Comment: I have been inputting data in family Tree Maker from an old DOS-based Brothers Keeper program which will no longer print. Once I learned the differences between the two programs and how to go from one to the other on the same screen,I can input the data fairly quickly. Most of the program seems relatively intuitive with lots of ways to get from one name to another quickly. One advantage to the old Brothers Keeper program is that all information on one individual is on one screen, while I have to go to Edit in family tree Maker to put in additional data. Family Tree Maker allows evidently unlimited amounts of notes for each person, which is a real plus.

the only negatives I'm finding are working with the free subscription to ancestry.com that came with the program. If I have been doing e-mail and then go to Family Tree Maker and try to look up information in the web search on an individual, as often as not family tree Maker will tell me to turn on my modem, which is already on. I also had some trouble navigating back and forth within ancestry.com between looking at online data and going back to the list of possible data that ancestry.com has found. this may be because I'm not sure how to do it.
