Kris, I just learned this in a thread on the Records board (browsing the boards is certainly worthwhile).

Go here:

http://www.mundia.com

and create a free account.

You can then use "Find People" to search for Olivia Kempf.

When you click on the search results for Olivia Rickia Wilhelmine Kempf, you will be given access -- free of charge -- to the two trees on Ancestry in which she appears (the ones I cited earlier).

You will also be able to contact the two people to whom the trees belong, through that system.

Yet again what wonder information that you have sent.

Thankyou so much

Serendipity at work. I read that thread on the Records board because I was very interested in what looks like a horrific breach of privacy by Ancestry. I decided to try it out. (It really does seem that trees that are "private" at Ancestry can be accessed at Mundia.) I'd never heard of Mundia before -- it's operated by Ancestry, and Ancestry has just transferred people's trees there (apparently without any decent notice this is happening).

I'd just read your thread, and I realized that could be the solution you needed. In your case, the Ancestry trees aren't "private". At Mundia, try clicking on "Family Tree" in the row of buttons, once you have got to Olivia's entry in one of the trees. It allows you to navigate up and down and sideways around the trees. I couldn't figure out who she connected with and when, but maybe you can -- or just contact the tree owner. I hope it works!
