Rick, 
Very well written. I too,  do not understand the reluctancy of a majority of 
the ftDNA population. I hope we can at least get the Azores DNA Project members 
to see the value of the Family Trees.

One of the most frustration things in Genetic Genealogy is having a match with 
a person and not being able to look for a common connection because no tree is 
posted on Family Tree DNA and all efforts to contact the match are fruitless. I 
have two 2 nd Cousin matches and have tried numerous times and have had no 
response from them. 

  

When you post a tree on Family Tree DNA who can see it. If you believe that it 
is available to every and anyone who wants to look at it you are mistaken. The 
only person that can see the tree is someone that has a match with you or the 
project administrator.  Another misconception on posting a tree on Family Tree 
DNA is that all your information is made available Only the basic information 
is posted such as Name, birth date and place, and death date and place. That is 
not much information but it is enough to find a common match. The other thing 
people are reluctant to display is any information on living persons. It is a 
matter of personal preference but anyone that knows how to use the inter net 
can find that information if they want. Any match with me can look at my GEDCOM 
on Family Tree DNA and see my birthday and place. 

  

If you have not posted your Family Tree Please Consider it even a partial tree 
is better than no tree. 

  

If you need help any of the Family Tree DNA Azores Project administrators can 
and most gladly assist any Azores DNA Project members.
