Thankful that you got back to me I did not know that there was over 2000 people in this group I am so sorry. I am so very new to all of this I started off on ancestery I have a tree on there and on my heritage. Is it possible that I can transfer my trees to family tree DNA? Also this week I did a test on my great grandmother sister who will be 100 years old next month on the ninth . Now just waiting for the results she’s from Vila Franca do campo
