They did Bata test the family tree and Cheri was in the loop to review it.
Cheri sent it to me to play with and when I sent my comments back to her
they were almost the same as hers. It appears that the programmer's at FTDNA
did not hear what we told them. Because it was a Beta test I could only look
at the Tree Cheri had and could not look at other trees from the FF matches.
The problems I found are no comparison to the ones we are now having with
Names showing up as private because there is no death date entered even if
the birth date was 1590 and being able to correct the names and edit.

FTDNA seemed to have overreached with this Family Tree function.

 

 It's clear they took no input from any genealogist  nor thought beyond the
most simplistic model of how this would actually work.

Thank you Eric for your comment.  I have my names entered a certain way - So
let's say I have José de Paiva (the de is showing up in the middle name
field for some reason) and you have the same person as Jose Paiva - then we
will not link because of the difference in his name?  That is what I am
trying to figure out.  So for me I have no need to change the names in the
edit field because I have no idea how someone else would record the name.

 

Rick and I have a known connection that we documented years ago but he is
not showing up in my list of relatives.  I'm just wondering if this could be
why.
