If you think they have a connection to your tree then you could check the Tree Matches on people in your tree and try to find them that way??

Try Search Trees tab and look for the owner of the tree - if they have a tree on this site then they should be on it.

You probably don't have to know who they are researching.

If they have a tree on this site chances are they will have themselves on it too so if you know their name can you look for the actual owner of the tree?

Put the tree owners name into Search Trees and their year of birth, plus or minus 5-10 years if you don't know it exactly and if you see their first name you can check their surname when you click on the button to contact them.

This should lead you to them????

That is what I had been wondering, but have had no answer to my question. Very strange.
