Can anyone give free geneaology info for my family tree?

I would like to look up my mother's side of the family as far as I can take it. My mother's name is Glynda M. Fulton and I would like to trace her family tree for free, but I don't have the patience to look it up myself. I don't know which site to go to cause the sites are free to a point. I'll give ya'll as much info as I can but I hope I can do so without getting my PC hacked into. Thanks.

The best way I know for you to learn about your roots is to: Build your family tree. You can do this for free on: http://www.tribalpages.com/ Start with yourself, then attach living family members. Find out all you can about you family from living membes, then attach it to your tree. Now it is time to look for historical records and attach the info to your tree: Free sites: http://www.usgenweb.com/ http://www.rootsweb.com/ ect. The time may come when you want more information than you can find for free. When this happens you can back up your "tribalpage" tree to your computer on a "GEDCOM" file You can then go to (I think it is the best payed site) http://www.ancestry.com/ upload your "GEDCOM" file and start to work! you might need to make a few ajustments to your tree to make it look better
Okay, I feel you like a lot of people have heard you can find your family information on the internet. Not everyone's family is on the internet and if you do find some of your family in the family trees, most of it is not documented. Even if you see the same information over and over by different submitters, a lot of copying is being done which means people are copy errors over and over. There are 2 free sites, Rootsweb and FamilySearch.org but do not take what they have in the family trees as gospel fact. There is no way you can really do your family tree by pushing a button on your computer and bingo there is the information.
I'd be glad to help you get started. Drop me a note through my email link on my profile with all the names, dates, places, parents and siblings that you can identify in your family. Then we'll download a free software package from http://www.familysearch.org and start by getting you organized.
What a great idea. I'm on social security plus physically unable to do it all myself and I'd sure like someone to clean all my windows inside and out, upstairs and down, for free. I'd provide all the cleaning materials and ladders.
Well, I don't think anyone is going to do it all for you, at least not for free. You can pay a professional between $25-$50/hour. The best way is simply to start with your own family. If you want to do it on the computer, you can download PAF (Personal Ancestral File), which is free genealogy software at http://www.familysearch.org under Order/Download Products. I imagine you can pick it up pretty quick because it is very user-friendly. Then talk to your parents (and grandparents if still alive) and get as much information as you can from them including names, dates, and places. Here are a few online resources for you to use: http://www.familysearch.org - Probably the best free online resource. http://www.ancestry.com is one of the best but has a hefty subscription fee (for most of its databases). Also, you can check the surname message boards for your surname at: http://genforum.genealogy.com http://boards.ancestry.com For links to helpful sites, you will want to take a look at: http://www.cyndislist.com And finally for a lot of different resources: http://www.rootsweb.com For grave records: http://www.findagrave.com It won't all be free but it's worth it. Good luck, Dave -- Create a family tree website at http://www.familypulse.org
