As far as I can tell from searching Google, YSearch has been left to rot by FTDNA. I recently noticed an entry of interest - U4U45 says "According to my genealogy research my line extends through a line of Waterhouse to Horatio Waterhouse born Vermont circa1794. But now my DNA matches at 37 markers with the paternal line of Micklethwaite. " How do I get in contact with U4U45? Attempts to use YSearch get a server error. TIA Andy.

Andy, there are three public trees on Ancestry with Horatio in them, and you can view them without a current subscription (just an account). I don't know about being able to contact the owner, though... maybe you can.

Andy FTDNA are no longer supporting Ysearch. People are encouraged to upload their DNA results to Geni.com instead. Wikitree is another alternative. I note you have a Micklethwaite Project at FTDNA. Have you checked the matches of all the people in your project? This person might well appear in their match lists. There is a Waterhouse Project at FTDNA: https://www.familytreedna.com/group-join.aspx?Group=Waterhouse If you contact the project admin he might be able to help to put you in touch with this person as there's a good chance he will be in that project. Can I suggest that you get in touch with Susan Meates, the Guild's DNA Advisor, so that you can get your FTDNA Project website set up and get the Guild logo featured against your surname in the FTDNA database: http://one-name.org/guild-logo-on-your-dna-project/ Susan's contact details can be found here: http://one-name.org/dna-introduction/ Best wishes Debbie Kennett -----Original Message----- From: GOONS [mailto:goons-bounces+debbiekennett=gmail.com@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Andy Micklethwaite Sent: 05 May 2017 12:15 To: goons@rootsweb.com Subject: [G] YSearch As far as I can tell from searching Google, YSearch has been left to rot by FTDNA.

Many thanks for the ideas Debbie - I will follow them up. However, I found this morning, after emailing another contact, that I should have looked in that most obvious of places - my email system for 4 years ago. Oh, dear. I think I should retire from this game while I can remember how to. Andy. At 13:45 06/05/2017, you wrote: >Andy > >FTDNA are no longer supporting Ysearch.
