Actually that's not quite accurate; I'd seen lots of them before, but hadn't managed to assign them to a group because there was nothing obvious in their trees (or no tree at all).

It means that I now know it's worth looking at some of these trees in detail, where they're potentially connected to a line I'm having trouble with.

Just to confirm - I presume the DNA matching tool works across all trees that you manage?

Yes, I have been looking at my husband's and my son-in-law's trees.

Since I renewed and added ProTools, I can't edit the notes to the various matches, because the Save button doesn't work.
Anyone else having the same problem?

Thanks Elizabeth.

It’s showing for me at £7.99 a month. No way am I paying that. Ancestry is expensive enough

Yes. Don't edit them from the shared matches tab, but from the Trees tab instead and it should work o.k.

How odd! Thanks very much!

The price seems to have gone up for UK and Australian users, UK price now £7.99. I'd advise anyone who has taken it out at the original price of £4,99 and currently has a renewal price of £4.99 to screengrab their account page now and again just before renewal if they intend to keep it going.

I'd hate to think I was offered £4.99, assume it to be that price and the price go up just as the time limit to cancel was reached.

The email confirming my purchase said "and will continue to renew every one month at £4.99 unless you are notified otherwise." So this should mean that if the renewal price is increased, they should notify us first.
