Laura, thanks for doing this digging. I would like to know if this person is related to me too. What was her DNA ID.?

    I wanted to share this:
     

     
    As I understand how this AncestryDNA works, the results are only going to
    find cousins if you share direct line ancestors.
     

     
    One of my cousin results was for a:
     

     
    cid:image0...@01CFB2FE.6F386D40
     

     
    In looking at her tree, there is one common ancestor
     

     
    Irene May Drew, who was the daughter of Joseph Obediah Drew and Mary Etta
    Davis. (Mary Etta was the daughter of John Davis and Mary Ann Walters).
     

     
    Irene would not be a direct line ancestor for me, but John and Mary Ann
    would be.
     

     
    Pursuing this further, I noticed that Tammy entered the incorrect parents
    for Irene. She entered Irene's husband's parents rather than Joseph and
    Mary Etta. There are not even any Davises or Drews in her tree!
     

     
    Which means that this AncestryDNA must truly be using DNA to find these
    matches!
     

     
    Very interesting!

    Definitely sounds like a way to clear up some incorrect data in some of the trees on Ancestry.
    Will it give you periodic updates if new cousins are found?

    Finally taking a look at it on dna/ancestry.com. Have a sale on until August 27 with the kit only $79. Sounds good and thanks, Laura, for letting us all know that it works.

Where would I find her DNA ID?

 

I have her user named as “TammyTrottier”!
