Tommy, thanks for this great insight. Could you explain the previous numbers under profiles with DNA test connections and previous member numbers? It's not obvious to me, this morning.

Answer 3

sure shows what happens when you add each new profile expecially if they are already attached to the main tree.  I think I added over 50 during the connect-a-thon and I try to add at least one a day.  Reached 1000 in no time.  It works, Guys and Gals.
