Family Tree Project

I have started a project to create a free version of our family tree.  Basically it is like Ancestry.com, however it is hosted on my server.  This means that my family would not have to pay for ancestry.com accounts, and we don't have to rely on Ancestry.com.  I'm never a fan of hosting something on a companies server when you can do it yourself.

So far there are close to 800 people added to the family tree.  I've managed to find things online, taking the Spiker Family back into 1702, in Switerzland.

I want to invite everyone in my family to create an account (for free) and add your details to the site.  Its the best way to get all of the family information into one spot, and it is up to multiple sides of the family to do this because one person can not possibly know everything.  I would really like to see this project because something big that the entire family learns about and spends 5 minutes of their time to fill out there families information, and anything else they can add to other people they know.

Note: Living people can not be viewed on the site unless you login.  This is to protect the privacy of those still living.  Everyone can see those who are not longer living, without logging in.
