Where you have a page number, change it to something different and see if you still have matches.
I'm deleting the no tree/no match type in an attempt to getting the results into a manageable form. If there is no tree but a match, I'll try the match, to see if that leads to a tree. I swear there is a fh gene. There are whole clusters round some of best mate's ancestors, but complete blanks on other lines.

Thanks, Phoenix. I have more than 475 pages then, but not figured out exactly how many yet.

I'm waiting for my DNA test results (apparently they're in the lab) and am finding these figures a bit scary! How on earth do you find time to do anything else apart from trawling through all these matches???

The filtering tools are rudimentary. Shared matches give a guide, but it's so frustrating when people have no trees and you have to work through shared match after shared match to try to find the common theme. Only to discover that their research hasn't hopped back across the pond.

I have eliminated some 40 pages. Just another 400 odd to go.

I've had my results for a few weeks but haven't managed to find a way to sort/manage them in a productive way yet!

Thanks for that Jay! You've filled me with confidence
As much as I hope that I'll break down some brick walls I have a sneaking suspicion that all my matches will be with all the dodgy trees that I already know exist on Ancestry!

Having waded through a tree largely consisting of Woden, Queen Guin, and people born in 10AD, I could wish that people would park their fantasies elsewhere. But we have broken down two critical brickwalls in my friend's tree. We sort of knew who the people were, but didn't dare test the theory. Now we know we are right!

I have just found out I'm in a "DNA Circle":
DNA evidence shows you’re likely a descendant of Margaret Foster because you are part of her DNA Circle, which includes 5 of her probable descendants. Who is in a DNA Circle? Circle members share DNA with other members of the circle. Circle members all have family tree evidence that they are direct descendants of Margaret Foster. Your DNA matches some or all members of this DNA Circle. Not sure why I'm not in DNA Circles for any of my other ancestors yet (I mean the ones where it has come up with DNA matches to other of their descendants), but maybe ancestry takes a long time to figure them out. |
