    I have a subscription to WorldVitalRecords. I joined originally in Jan of 2007 for a 2 year for 1 subscription. To say I have been disappointed is an understatement!! I also feel that I have been thoroughly taken advantage of. The promises were for “World” records and here is a list of the upcoming databases promised:
    Transcriptions of church records from Denmark
    * Immigration records from Switzerland
    * Vital statistics from Canada
    * German land records
    * Hungarian land records
    * Vital statistics from England
    * Scottish ancestry records
    * Historical records from Ireland
    I waited and waited for some of these databases to appear and finally contacted the company and was told to be patient by David Lifferth.
    Eventually the promise of vital statistics from Canada disappeared and the only Canada census was the head of household index that can be found on our National Archives site.
    Now this Jan, my account suddenly changed from a “World” Subscription to a “US” Subscription which contains all the databases up to that point, none of which is any use to me. I had never subscribed to any US collection. I complained to the company once again only to receive a form letter with all the hype that they issued to explain their change. To get the international databases that were promised in the beginning I have to PURCHASE another subscription.
    In conclusion, I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND anyone buying a subscription to this WorldVitalRecords/FamiyLink Company. They may pull the same stunt again as time passes and you will be left high and dry with a worthless subscription. This is only my opinion but I am sure I am not the only who feels betrayed.
    Sincerely
    Sandra Chester

    New Jersey Will Records are classified as World Records. I’ve sent an email asking why. It’s probably just an error, but if it isn’t, then goodbye to me.

    I am interested in UK, not USA, records. I looked at this offer related to the world records. It may be good value for USA users – but for UK users it talks a better game than it currently delivers!
    Quote”Our World Collection is the least expensive way to get access to the UK Census.” Alas only very partially true. Only 2 of the 7 census from 1841 to 1901 that a number of others eg Ancestry.com have on line.
    England and Wales BMD indexes 1837 to 1983 – under 2 Million records in total. freebmd.rootsweb.com, for example, has 146.5 Million records indexed for the same period!

    I already have a subscription to Ancestry. It is worth it to get this as well or is there a lot of duplication?

    Robin,
    Thanks for the clarifying question.
    FamilyLink.com, Inc. is a privately held corporation. Our company was founded by Paul Allen and a group of technologists and genealogists to meet a need that we did not feel was being properly addressed in the genealogy and family history market space. As a result, we are primarily owned by those of us who founded the company.
    We have had a “Series A” round of funding which has allowed us to expand our social networking product offerings. Most of the funding came from 6 angel investors who are personal friends of Paul Allen who believe in his vision and what we are doing in the genealogy space.
    We are not owned by TGN (The Generations Network) or Ancestry.com. TGN considers us to be competitors and will no longer allow us to buy advertising space on any of their sites.
    While we do have some overlap with the databases on Ancestry, our analysis indicates that about 2/3 of our databases are not available on any other major genealogy database site. Some of our users consider us to be an add-on for their Ancestry membership, while others consider us to be a less expensive replacement for their Ancestry subscription.

    Thank you Mr. Lifferth. However, the question was “what is the source”? I am an investor and also a person who does not want to pay twice for the same records, databases and software.
    What or who is FamilyLink.com? In other words, who owns FamilyLink.com, Inc.? Is FamilyLink.com, Inc. a privately held corporation?

    Tony,
    Thanks for the question and for the opportunity to clarify who FamilyLink.com, Inc. and WorldVitalRecords.com are. FamilyLink.com, Inc. is the parent company that developed and maintains WorldVitalRecords.com, FamilyLink.com, and “We’re Related” on Facebook. We were founded in 2006 and had our first subscriber sign up in October of 2006. Less than eighteen months later, we now have almost 30,000 paid subscribers on WorldVitalRecords.com; 60,000 members on FamilyLink.com; and over 3 million users on “We’re Related” on Facebook.
    WorldVitalRecords.com is a genealogy database subscription site. We are the low cost choice for researchers that can’t afford the more expensive database sites in the industry. We are not part of Ancestry.com, in fact, we are competitors. Paul Allen, founded Ancestry.com but left that company in 2002. He, I, and several of us that founded FamilyLink.com, Inc. have previously worked at Ancestry.com.
    WorldVitalRecords.com now has over 1 Billion records online, much of which is exclusive and can’t be found anywhere else, and we are growing very rapidly. Our World Collection is the least expensive way to get access to the UK Census. We have partnered with over 30 companies and organizations to license their content for WorldVitalRecords.com. Our content partners include: AllCensus, Statue of Liberty/Ellis Island Foundation, Find-A-Grave, Newspaper Archive, SmallTownPapers, Everton, FamilySearch, Quintin, Archives CD Books, Find My Past, British Origins, Godfrey Memorial Library, many genealogy societies, and too many more content partners to list here. We also lots of free databases that anyone can use including a currently licensed SSDI, newspapers, and other public domain data.
    Another of our web sites is FamilyLink.com, which is a free social networking site for families and genealogists. We are innovative and try to provide the tools that families and genealogists need to share information and collaborate across the world. We have over 60,000 users on FamilyLink.com that are enthusiastic about sharing genealogy information.
    “We’re Related” on Facebook is the leading social network application for connecting with your relatives on Facebook. Facebook is the fasting growing social network on the internet. Our “We’re Related” app had 1 million users install it in the first 29 days after we released it, which easily beat the previous growth record set by MyFamily.com. We now have over 3 million users and are among the most successful application of any kind on Facebook. We are now rolling that same functionality out to Bebo, Orkut, MySpace, Open Social, and the other popular social networks as well.
    We are excited to do this promotion with great folks at Legacy. They have a great product which we sell on our site. I have known Ken and Geoff for a while and appreciate their contributions to our industry.
    Thanks,
    David Lifferth, President
    FamilyLink.com, Inc.

    I want to know what the source company is. I have this feeling that it is the same parent company for ancestry, rootsweb, and I don’t have a clue what else. I hope I am wrong and that Legacy is smart enough not to jump in bed with this bunch and do something creative on its own.
