I tend to use the "Edit Relationships" tab for sorting out "half sibling" issues ... it generally leads, I find, to better outcomes.

tree hint du jour.

The orange parent hints suggesting parents for people in your tree ...

Where you have added children from a census where there is only one parent (typically a widow/er where their spouse died since the last census) ...

There will be "half siblings" created that need the deceased parent added ...

DON'T CLICK THE ORANGE HINT TO ADD THE MISSING PARENT ...

... because it currently adds the "parent" as a new person 🧐😳🤨

No doubt it'll be sorted.

A couple more shared SNPs Castle matches that are Subclade 0 to me. I apparently have to upgrade to see who and where. Sneaky buggers. Money money money 💰

I got my DNA test done initially only because a cousin asked me to, aside from that, my tree slowly started coming together in 2016 after 35 years of being 1 of many family historians working on it.. I still never run out of people to index

Major discovery tonight! For years, I couldn’t find the record of my uncle and aunt. On , I stumbled across a entry for a woman with my aunt’s first name and my uncle’s last name. I cross-checked the grooms index-no corresponding entry! Armed with the license number and date, I searched DORIS ( online vital records). I pulled up the , license, and marriage certificate…everything I needed! Mystery solved!

Care about ancestry data?

On Wednesday, join the Association of Public Data Users for a webinar featuring Merarys Rios-Vargas and Angie Buchanan from the U.S. Census Bureau who will discuss the potential removal of the ancestry question from the American Community Survey.

My faith in people has been refreshed.

I messaged a new contact on Ancestry late last night and already received a response.

Fellow genealogists know what a huge win this is!

Now if the person I messaged in June would just read and reply.

Today I have again successfully used "floating trees" within to crack relationships with several matches, including matches who haven't connected their DNA result to their Ancestry tree. Am well on the way to ID a match with no tree at all.

I really didn't realise how powerful the technique was going to be!
