Hi Martin, did you notice on some of the names re notes there are three note sections. One is posted (Add Note) on the first page and each time you go to that name your post is there for all to see. Another is on the left of the page. (Send Message) But on the odd one I see another post its on the right side just above where all the names in that family are posted. It says (invite to add tree) I have had success posting through that, Had a number of replies.. A tip to help reduce your work is to type up a letter with all you can think to ask. Then copy this. Each time I see a potential cousin I copy this letter and paste it in the areas where it says post.

Will have a look, I have used Add Note because they might see it when they go to their DNA rather than having to read the messages.
