I am planning a big trip to Indiana, Ohio and West Virginia and hope to have several distant cousins do their DNA so that we can further prove our relatedness. I was certainly not trying to say anything negative about Ancestry. In fact the new compare function at Ancestry is what broke open the door to a decades long mystery as to the parents and family of one of our double great grandmothers. I telephoned to ask why. I was told that they have not resolved some issues since January , since when they have been unable to upload from FTDNA.
They said they would not make an announcement of when this problem had been solved, to enable people like me who subscribe, to know it was time to try again.
