i only have basic, but every-time i check to see if there is already a profile here, i click profile and get a screen saying pay money, i can not check if it is the right profile, so i really do not want to make duplicate profiles, but the system will not allow me to check.. This annoyance is not encouraging me to actually want to pay money. i did find one profile, actually through a link from another website, but then i could not add any more information onto it, I had birth dates, marriage dates ,and death,husband , children all with sourcing but i could not do a thing with the profile can you only change stuff if you go Pro.

and why would anyone anyone have a private profile for someone born in the 1840's is this normal procedure here. to lock profiles that are sol old.

getting very annoying and frustrating, i am glad so far I have not paid any money.

William Russell you can use an external search like Google to search for public profile on Geni. Profiles with a birth date more than 150 years ago should be public in most cases. You can use https://www.geni.com/discussions/217559 to ask for them to be made public.
You might also want to look at https://www.geni.com/projects/Geni-Start-Here-Basics/17603 and https://www.geni.com/projects/A-to-Z-of-Help-Topics/38243
