How can I search for a specific profile manager?

Question

I wrote down that I had a DNA connection to a certain profile manager with a common name, but I didn't write down a specific way to contact him. Now I want to. ?? Thanks

Answer 1

Since you know the PM's name, search for him/her the way you would normally search for a deceased person's profile.  Living WikiTreers come up in those results, too.

That's why I said it is a common name. I will not find this person among the many living people with the same name.

However, the person will have 'Active' in scarlet next to their name - that might help.

Also, narrow the dates to the likely living.

This was the thing that worked. Thanks.

Answer 2

When I need to locate the profile for someone with a common name, such as "John Smith", I find it easier to do my search on a known relative's name which may not be as common, such as "Uriah Smith", and then navigate the branches of the tree until I reach the profile I'm looking for.
