Obstacles

This past Sept. I was on Ancetry try to trace mom's family( Leise/ Stein),when I noticed on the homepage that someone was saving records of mom's family. I debated as to contact that person or not. I did and offered pictures of the family. In return I got shut down by a very rude person and the tree proceeded to block me  and in return I did the same. On Nov 5, I worked on the same family,and came across a record of mom's family with the same rude tree, but with a name change. How did I know it was the same tree? It stated you have blocked this tree. No matter how many times you change the name of a tree, if you block that tree it will stay with it. I found what I was looking for and alot more. Headstone photos. obituaries,and the entries that the other tree had put in. Persistance can pay off if you stick with it,and you do need alot of patience. I feel on top of the world. I did not let on very rude tree and the person attatched to it stop me from finding what I wanted. KEEP SEARCHING!
