Hi Denise,
I do not seem to recall that we ever established a connection. I know we both have people coming from Achada. We do have a common match with George Mello So we are related somewhere. This new family tree thing on FTDNA is very frustrating in trying to track down connections. In looking on the admin page I was able to find one kit (91556) which you administer. Is there another?

I have tied in with Altino and Rick, among many others on the list, and they do not show up as connections. Any suggestions?

You got double first names and I got the middle name dropped. As a beta tester, I reported the José showing up as José. I sent it to them both as ANSI and ANSEL. Just add it to your list of things that you found with the trees Yes, your mom doesn't show as a link because you ended with her on that Gedcom. I had my mom's DNA kit listed as H. Louise. In my Gedcom, she is Helen Louise. That is why it wouldn't link her. I had to change it. So if have Joe Mello and you have him as Jose de Melo, with the same birth and everything, it may not show the link. Altino's my dad's 2nd cousin, but I have the surname as Mello and I think he has it as Demelo, so it won't show Altino as a link. This is a problem. Ugh.
