I've been paying $25 a month to run into relatives that all have their trees set to PRIVATE.
They're my cousins / second-cousins, and I'm not sure who their parents are or how they fit into my tree.
The site lets you look at US Census data... from the 1950s or some shit. So I can piece together family information upwards half a dozen ways to my grandparents and their parents and so on, but I can't seem to get any info from the system for anyone born after the 1950s.
I keep paying because I'm trying to solve a spooky family mystery.
That spooky family mystery is exactly why their family trees are all set to private.
story time! :D
Their grandpa married a ghost. They're 1/4 ghost.

I was a spooky family mystery. There are records out there, particularly for the US, but you have think laterally and use resources outside their walled garden. US census records are only released after (IIRC) 70 years, so getting the 1950 census was a pretty big development. Beyond that, there are obituaries, phone books, newspapers, yearbooks, and others. I can even say from experience that the creepy "Radaris" style sites are usually leveraging some kernels of valid information in the free teaser data they show.
