The research time can be used in a variety of ways, such as to start your tree, or teach you how to use Ancestry.com to build your tree, or help you break through a brick wall.
To enter, go to the Branch Out Sweepstakes page. To enter you must provide your:
- Name,
- Address,
- Email Address,
- Phone Number, and
- Provide a brief story (500 words or less) about your family history.
Ancestry.com says the story will not be judged or graded. You must consent to have it displayed in connection with the sweepstakes, so you have to own the story or have the story owner’s permission. Ancestry.com may wish to display photographs of the people in the story, so you’ll need to be prepared to obtain permissions to display those as well.
With the tax deadline today, its time to think about getting some money back. The sweepstakes deadline is the end of the month.
I am from outside the USA and that appears to make me ineligible for the contest :-(
ReplyDeleteTHIS IS TOTALLY UNFAIR AND SMALL MINDED ON THE PART OF ANCESTRY. IT WILL MAKE ME THINK ABOUT WHERE TO SPEND MY MONEY NEXT YEAR. I AM A CANADIAN WITH A ONE YEAR WORLD SUBSCRIPTION. IS MY MONEY NOT AS GOOD AS AMERICAN MONEY. YOU'RE QUICK ENOUGH TO ACCEPT IT AND YET BARR US ALL FROM THE CONTEST UNLESS WE HAVE A U.S. ADDRESS. WHEN WE HAVE A WORLD SUBSCRIPTION I BELIEVE WE SHOULD BE INCLUDED. COMPLETELY UNFAIR ON THE PART OF ANCESTRY. SAME ON YOU FOR EXCLUDING PAYING MEMBERS AND LINING YOUR POCKETS WITH MONEY TO RESEARCH AND YET EXCLUDE US. I WILL REMEMBER THIS WHEN IT COMES TIME TO RENEW, I AM EXTREMELY ANGRY OVER THIS. VERY ANGRY AND I DO NOT BELIEVE I AM THE ONLY ONE. I SUGGEST EVERYONE NOT ALLOWED TO ENTER WRITE TO ANCESTY FOR THEIR UNFAIR PRACTICES. CHEVYWRANGLER
