Yeah kind of weird because on the main page it says last match on ex husbands grandmother was 11/1/2013, then you click on matches and I show 12 new matches.and out of those 12 new matches 1 person has a Gedcom.
I do hope if these people find out how we connect that they would at least contact us to let us know HOW we connect since they have no gedcoms.
