I have just seen a tree hint for someone who I looked at the other day, so I think you have to view the person's hints first, and then check back a bit later to see if there are any tree hints added. I can't say that the one I saw was any help - it looked as though the other tree was copied from mine!

I've had a wierd email on the lines of: we have monitored your searches, and think you might be interested in this record, pointing me, in this case, to a census.
It feels very Big Brother.

I get "Record hints" emails from Ancestry and something similar ("Record matches") from "My Heritage", but in both cases those are based on my family tree. It does seem strange to send hints related to your searches instead of your tree, especially since many people are now doing "quick and dirty" trees for people on their DNA match lists to figure out how they are related, and unlikely to want such hints for those. Anyway, shouldn't the search on FMP have come up with that record in the first place?

The person concerned had about four Christian names - some given, some self-bestowed. It's probably an accurate hint, but my butterfly brain has moved on.
