When the family genealogist tests a family member for that DNA line, they
are the proxy.  I always tell the proxy to put the name of the testee, then
address line 1 c/o their name, then their address, their phone, their email.

I've noticed some people getting creative though.  Some of the matches are
coming in and the proxies have changed the names.  Let's pretend John Smith
tested his DNA.
First Name: John
Last name: Smith

What they are doing now:
First Name: John Smith
Last name: c/o Jenny Jones

So your matches page does not read your match is John Smith.  It says: John
Smith c/o Jenny Jones.

I will ask at the DNA conference if there is anyway to update the contact
form when a proxy is handling the DNA so their contact stuff is the once
that goes to the matches page.
