  1. Open Root magic and import a new copy of the tree from Ancestry
  2. Copy/past the media folder into C:\inetpub\wwwroot\webtrees\data\media
  3. From Root Magic export the gedcom file. Deselect Sources || LDS Information || Note Formatting || Extra Details
  4. Place a copy of the gedcom at C:\inetpub\wwwroot\webtrees\data
  5. use notepad++ and find/replace B:/FamTree/(Name of the Roots Magic Database)
