Regarding Version 6:

For me the feature that shows half-siblings in the list of children is
terrific. Too often I missed children by another marriage as I scanned
through.

Also (and something I have found most valuable) is that it bold-faces the
name of persons who are your direct ancestors. Very helpful, again as I
scan through. I don't remember this feature being in Version 5.

Another thing is that in the List of Names, it adds the birth and death
dates (if known) of the each individual. This is terrific if you have a
multitude of "Sarah Buck" names, as I do.

And of course getting the newest version allows you to get upgrades as they
correct/work out the bugs, etc., and even make small improvements.

So each person will need to answer that question for himself, comparing the
features. Just my two cents.

However, I must definitely say that the "deluxe" version is very, very much
more convenient to use than the free version. (Just having the clipboard
was worth that purchase for me.

Again, just my two cents.

Warmest Regards,

Donna
