Last night I uploaded an updated gedcom file to my family databaase at www.geniaus.net.
Since I reported on my last upload I have made changes to 347 records in my database. I have been slowly revisiting the oldest records in my Family Historian database as it is easy to sort by "Last updated". There were many that were last updated on 14/8/2010 when I imported my gedcom into Family Historian. I am pleased to report that I have dealt with most of those that were direct relations of miine. I haven't bothered with husbands and wives of distant cousins. I am happy to just have marriage records for them.
I am the Root Person in my database. The diagram below (a sample from the Family Historian spreadhseet like view) shows that most of the people last updated on 14/8/2010 are either not related to me (blank) or are the spouses of our cousins.
I'm rather proud of my cleanup efforts so far. Once I have covered some later dates in the "Last updated" column I will move on to seeking more information on my direct line. It is taking quite some effort to stick to my Revisiting, Reviewing and Revising as I am fond of tangential genealogy.

Congrats of your efforts Jill. I know I need to do this with my tree too. But it's not going to happen just yet.
