I am finding many people in my tree with whom i have made contact and am building my family bigger by the day. I need to know if there is a way of linking these trees together without inputting the information again when it already exists in someone elses tree

Samantha The normal way is to ask for copy of the Ged file and upload that into your own tree. Depending on the software you are using this can be very simple and you have the chance to decide which records you include or not. Mike
