Hello, All.
Over the years, having the fairly large family tree my father had gathered
over
the years, in addition to my own reasearch on my own family, my son's, my wife's, and my stepdaughter's, the file has and unweildy number of names.
What
have you all found to be the best software for finding duplicate enteriies?
I'm
sure there are several, just can't track them all so far.
Thanks

I use TNG, The Next Generation Genealogy Software. It's not free but the
good thing is that it's web based so you can easily allow other people to
view some or all of your tree without having to import/export and the like.
I use it in conjunction with ancestry and findmypast. They give me hints and
I add them to the main tree. It's a bit more work but I'm in control of my
data and who can see it.
It does have a pretty nice duplicate finder and you can use different parameters such as complete name or soundex name search, with or without
date of birth, place of birth, and other information. You should be able to find a demo at
http://www.tngsitebuilding.com/ or drop me your email address and I'll send you a screen shot of the duplicates page.
