Harry and others:
Project members add their own data describing ancestors. You do this by
going to your personal page and selecting User Preferences from the
panel on the left (under My Account). Scroll down the page and you will
find two fields where you can add data for your Paternal Side and
Maternal Side, respectively. On that same page is also a like that
takes you to a map where you can associate the same data with a
geographic location.
