DNA matches in WikiTree

Question

I added my DNA to GEDmatch before Genesis.

I thought I had to WikiTree.  I have not tried to see if I have matches (Been busy trying to connect myself to the tree) and sourcing some (This has been because it let me learn how to source).  Try it if you haven't.  And no one has contacted me about being a match.

Can someone look at my profile and tell if I have entered link to GEDMatch?

Where do I go to see this for myself?

How do I tell if I got transferred to Genesis and am still connected to WikiTree from Genesis.

Thanks

David

Answer 1

Hi David, I took a quick peek at your profile. I see you have added the AncestryDNA information but there is nothing entered for GEDmatch.

Go to the "Add" dropdown at the top right of your WikiTree profile, select "DNA Test Information" from the dropdown and choose "edit" for your current AncestryDNA test info. There will be a box for you to add your GEDmatch ID.

For people in your family tree that also have GEDmatch uploads, you will be able to "compare" your results in GEDmatch. WikiTree doesn't automatically compare DNA.

Hope this helps!

Thank you,

I went in and found that my GEDMatch number was no there.  

Also looked and saw that I had some matches.  Learning curve :)

Another route to adding your GEDmatch ID is to go to

Enter your GEDmatch ID in the GEDmatch field

Then click the SAVE DETAILS button.
