I have recently added my dna to ancestry and part of the site says dna circles. My question is whether anyone is using the same site and whether you have knowledge of how Dna circles work, what do i need to do to access this part of does it do it automatically. Thanks in advance.

I haven't had my DNA analysed by Ancestry but I have added it to GEDmatch. It is a free site where you can put your raw data and link with others who have had their DNA analysed by other companies. If you want to multiply your chances of finding relatives that's the way to do it.

Hope you get an answer about the circles soon.

my results are actually on ancestry dna I have matches coming in quite regularly. Many are confirming what I already know but several surprises along the way.
