Way too much - especially since most of the users are the ones doing all the work today. They (website) initially scanned had started scanning items from Nellis Island, etc., but most of us are the ones keeping the site alive. I haven't renewed mine for years now -- especially after never being able to locate my Father's side of the family. I was able to trace my entire Mother's side all the way up, but my Father's side seemed to not exist. I put in his name, his parent's and siblings names -- never got a pretty leaf anywhere. I found more out using my daily search engine than from there site. And, it didn't cost me anything.
