Any Ancestry users on here?

[Murdochcat]

I've had my DNA tested and have been loading family tree information into Ancestry.

What I'd like to do now is to print off parts of it, preferably as a list of facts and then pass it out to cousins for them to review and help check facts and fill in gaps. I'd rather not do this person by person and wondered if anybody on the collective knew if this is possible?

Thanks in advance

There is an option to print a family unit completely but not (that I can find one) that allows multiple generations to be printed at the same time

And your point is ?

Civil liberty groups are opposed to DNA databases, yet people freely give their DNA to companies, not really knowing what they will eventually do with it

I created a family what’s app groups which allowed everyone to share what they knew of their part of the family and also allowed little seen photos and birth/death/ marriage certs to be shared , much less hassle than printing

Indeed.

Taken from the BBC News website today:

I gave my DNA to tracking company - then it vanished

Customers of Atlas Biomed are angry and worried about what's happened to the highly sensitive data they shared.

I don’t really care about this at all

My choice to get it analysed and shared

Some of these ancestry.com companies flog their customers DNA information to Pharmaceutical companies for research purposes.

Never seen the point of dna testing, you have a good idea of your heritage. I can understand it if you are adopted, but generally speaking (if you’re lucky) we know up to our grandparents, the rest is of passing interest as we can never really know great grand parents or beyond. Using ancestry just confirmed to me the importance of close family. Don't see how dna adds to that other than giving the pharmo’s more info when the nhs is privatised.
