What does this mean? When I click on the link, it shows that I have 3 exact 25 point matches, but no names appear.

An exact match has been found between you and another person(s) in the Family Tree DNA database. You and the other person(s) have matched in all loci, which means that there is a 99.9% likelihood that you have a common ancestor. There is a 50% likelihood that the common ancestor is within the last 14.5 generations and 90% within the last 48 generations. If you and your match share a "prior" item of knowledge, such as a common surname, then a recent (within 14.5 generations) common ancestor is fairly likely. If not, then the common ancestor is probably closer to the 48 generations. The link below will take you to your Family Tree DNA Login. From there you can see a list of your matches. Newer matches will be at the top of the list. Additional emails will be sent to you as we find new matches between you and your "genetic cousins." Family Tree DNA <<<LINK DELETED>>>
It means that the three did not sign release forms or that their list administrator did not take the list public. Either could prevent the names from appearing. You might try sending an e-mail to the Family Tree DNA office and ask them to look into this. Barbara
