      From: NemoNews@hotmail.co.uk              Looking at my Ancestry DNA, I see quite a few people listed as having a       Common Ancestor. Several of these I know quite well and know exactly       how they are related to me, but in several cases I have looked at the       person has quite a small tree on Ancestry and not only are none of the       people on my tree, but none of the surnames match either.              I know Ancestry can compare my DNA with another's and say, with some       degree of accuracy, "You are 4th - 7th cousins" but how on earth can it       say "you share ancestors Joe Bloggs and Jane Doe with A N Other" when A       N Other doesn't have a tree including these people?              I have so far only contacted one of these people to ask if they know of       the connection.       --       Jenny M Benson       Wrexham, UK              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
