Ancestry, a year in review.

[Ray T]

Spotted it the other day; yet another pointless thing I have to pay for that I don’t want.

Reminds me of my old university lecturer who, when giving revision advice, always said that “Procrastination is a theft of time.”. I wish that they’d get on and do well the simple things I want rather than invent yet more things that I don’t.

Another useless gimmick. I am also a hint hero but heaven only knows what that means, I very rarely look at any  hints as they usually have no relation to anyone in my tree.

Most DNA matches either have no tree, or like Millmoor they are under 20cm. The ones that are good matches  I have had on my tree for many years.

I wish there was just one button to click on so that we could download all our information about our DNA matches into a database.

Well, mine mentioned that clues from my tree helped 33 people! And I wasn't aware of that!

It says I added 12,569 people to my tree - that's my whole tree. A few weeks ago I realised my tree on Ancestry was very out of date, so I deleted it, then uploaded my up to date tree as a Gedcom made by my FTM software. Obviously they count that as adding new people to an existing tree.

All the best hints offered to me by Ancestry seem to come from one of my own trees.

Ray T I have that problem too.
