Hi rsel,

Thanks for the encouragement. You really do state it bottomline:

  But that's one of the benefits of sharing your tree. if you are worried about the accuracy, sharing it will help validate it :-) rsel

 I must agree, but:

  Yes, you will get some people with incorrect or plain right stupid trees linking to you. rsel

So I want a bit more certaintly before I share. To some extent I've plugged in potenial ancestors to see if they themselves pull out confirmations. I know which they are but they could be misleading to other people if hey think the link is confirmed.

Cheers,
Conlin

Hi Towdlass,

I empathise when you say:

I find it confusing that when I look at my results I find someone with whom I am supposed to have a close link but their family tree isn't public ... I send them a message asking them to have a look at my tree and would they be kind enough to allow me to see theirs. I wait and I wait and they don't even bother to reply.

I'm totally in sympathy, I've experienced the same thing. Yet find myself acting the same way. No problem showing my DNA results, but I get antsy showing my family tree. Doubts about its accuracy, or something else, I don't know. I suppose I feel I just don't know enough yet.

Regards,

Conlin
