I found it useful because I have now confirmed my Northamptonshire families which was always a niggle for me because of the lack of a marriage certificate of my gg grandfather but using the thrulines I went through the ancestors one by one and up popped a couple of matches it is only small 10cM but when I crosschecked through both trees and sources on mine they are descended from my Mears family in Northamptonshire they are much further down the tree than me but I was pleased about the connection, they are in the USA. I did the same for my Norfolk connection which is the gg grandmother perhaps I have just been lucky with the quality of those two trees.
I would have missed them because they are way down my list it is going up by about 5 a week and I still am missing a lot.
