Hi Vera,

If you look up to the left of your screen, just under the Genes Reunited logo and the three purple figures, you'll see boxes labelled first name, last name and Search.

Put any of the names you want to find, and it will open up a box... add your relative's name and a range of birth dates.... and then there will be a list of all the people with those names in their tree, on Genes.... then send them a pm by clicking on the account holder's name..... and ask if you have ancestors in common. I would add as much info as you can, so that they can see if you are matched.

Some folk won't answer.... but others will.

Good luck

Love

Daff xxxx
