Laura F, It's going to take a lot of time. My dad has a "2nd cousin" match with an adoptee. Except they are not 2nd cousins because my dad's grandparents are double first cousins. And my dad has something like 15 or 16 cousin marriages in his tree. All those cousin marriages and messing up the Relative Prediction. It's been about 3 or years since this adoptee match. We are getting a clearer picture for this match, but it's going to take more time.
I would help if you would go in a edit your personal information and put in your address and phone. If the phone number doesn't save, put it in the 2nd address line. That way I could call you and explain your pages to you. Cheri On Wed, Dec 3, 2014 at 8:47 PM, Laura Flanagan <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Rick, > Consider that done!
