Welcome to this site dedicated to the ancestors of Gary Royal Witcher and Victoria Amy Waddington Witcher.
Originally, the question was how to merge gedcom files from various sources. Then it made more sense to place the works of the different researchers in individual locations to preserve the integrity of their separate efforts.
With the exception of Gary (me) these are SERIOUS researchers. They have put countless hours into researching and organizing mountains of information. Some have published books. Genealogy books may appear at first glance to be a little expensive. When we decide to use our heads, though, we realize that they are great bargins. If over $50 seems like a lot for a 1000-page book representing years of research, try taking a trip to anywhere to do your own research. How much did you say you spent on gas, food and lodging? OK, you want to do your own digging. Compare grubbing aimlessly to digging with the assistance of an extensive guide. You get the picture.
These researchers have agreed to share the fruits of their efforts:
