Most sites do have an ability for people to keep their trees private.

Many of us would not put our trees out there if we couldn't keep them private.

Mine are private on Ancestry, and I've never put any of them on FMP or FamilySearch. I have a small one on here, but not that much information on it.

Too many "numbers collectors" to do otherwise.

Actually, just seen under some of them that it says "this members tree is currently private".

Hello, on FMP a tree search has been added which is new. If you find a tree you are interested in and click on the tree, does it give you access or is the tree locked by the owner of the tree. I went to my local library to try but their computers are in serious need of an upgrade and didn't support this facility. Thank you.
