Thanks for the reply. I have to figure out how to use the site. I do not know
what Gedcom is ? Will have to read up on it. I have done my autosomal with
Ancestry also and several of the matches in Family Tree I matched with them
there also. More of my close cousins did their autosomal with Ancestry and I
have encouraged them to do it with Family Tree also. I have just begun to use
Family Tree. I do not have a computer and mostly use my iPad which seems to
work okay.
