Legacy buys Adpay from Ancestry

Ancestry has sold subsidiary Adpay to Legacy.com, the companies announced Feb 18.

“We are grateful for Ancestry’s stewardship of the Adpay business,” said Stopher BartolLegacy.com’s founder and CEO. “And we are thrilled to partner with the Adpay team to build on our shared mission of helping funeral homes and consumers publish obituaries in local newspapers everywhere, in every format.”

Legacy is headquartered in Chicago. Adpay is based near Denver.
