Go to your personal page and join the O'Brien project and withdraw from the Bryan project. While there set you personal perfences so you are matched to the whole data base.

This is why I had myself tested, to be matched against all. I have found many times with the T on the end of my surname while researching, am I a Bryan or a Bryant, could I be a O'Brian, O'Bryan or a O'Bryant, on and on and on. I do know that I am a Heinz 57.
