Does anyone have the new layout that shows multiple options for common ancestors? They started trialling that ages ago but took if off my account after a few weeks and not seen it again  :-\

I seem to have it still.
If I go to the trees tab I get the closest relationship for common ancestors, then
'view more possible connections' in green underneath
When I click that I get a popup

I have the same as Lizzie.

Major DNA envy  >:(

I agree Queenie,

It does seem odd to not put something on the Site advising about the closedown, but perhaps they thought that people might start asking for refunds?

I only found out from posts on a Facebook Group.

Incidentally I’ve had about a dozen new DNA matches through this morning, but all under 20cMs.

I hope that your results come through soon.

Romilly.

Thanks, Romilly. I just received my results this morning. No surprises thus far, but am looking forward to researching further!

Thanks also to everyone who contributed on this thread and confirmed that I wasn't going crazy!  ;D

Queenie  :)

I know numbers aren't everything, but between thethe 3 tests I manage, I have >120 matches in since I checked yesterday about this time!!  My cousin is maternal, my dad is obviously paternal, and I will share the majority of my ones (38), with one or the other. Mine are mostly 15cM and under, but there are a couple >20! First registration dates vary from midish Novenber to 1st week in December.

Nothing of great interest though among my Dad's, the only ones I have looked at closely so far!  Umm..... I had promised myself I would clean the hall way this morning.......!

I've had no new matches for over a couple of months. I think that Ancestry has lost its market in the UK.

Are you sure, Gordon, as they released again a week or so ago. I've only had a couple of 'close' matches though and most of them are 12cMs or less with no or limited trees.

I've had over 80 in the last 10 days or so. One was a low match 16cM and no shared matches, but had the same uncommon surname as my mother's maiden name.
She only has a small tree, just as far as her grandparents, but I was able to identify her as my 5th cousin. I extended my tree on Ancestry up to her paternal grandfather and within a few hours, Ancestry had picked up, correctly, that we had a common ancestor.
