Got to agree with you. I am good with genealogy too.. Found a 5th cousin that I was already friends with who lives 2 blocks away! I don’t like what FB did. I have a FB page but use it to keep up with what the kids are doing, other than that I don’t share personal info either and stay away from politics. I find most stuff posted on FB is junk anyway.
I must have very conservative friends and relatives because I learn from what they post. Think a lot of them are even more conservative than I and that is saying a lot. All anyone has to do is type in someone’s name and there are loads of hits from business to personal. When I want to find genealogy info, I type in descendants of the oldest name I have. I am constantly amazed at the info out there. If people think FB is the only place to find personal info, they are mistaken. Just type in a name and sites will pop up with their age, places they have lived and names of family members. I have done it trying to find someone. Genealogy has taught me so much about being a sleuth, FB is my way of keeping up with friends from 1-12 grades, college, plus ones I know now. It is a way of seeing photos of kids I do not get to see or have never seen. I get info on weddings and lots of other events.
