To those of you who have access to other people's information on Family Tree DNA: My husband and I both have kit numbers and passwords to get into our accounts on Family Tree DNA. However we are working another surname besides Bradish. Going on WorldFamilies.net we have found 5 37 marker sets of results with surnames and Kit Numbers. We need the following information: name of person tested if possible, known genealogy of that person or at a minimum contact (e mail address) information for that person. I have not found a way to do that on Family Tree DNA. I realize this is off topic. But since some of you have access into Family Tree DNA information, could you please contact me (bradish@attglobal.net) with some suggestions. Thank you for your time. Connie Ohlman Bradish
Unless you are a DNA match with someone, in which case their name and email address will be showing up on the Y-DNA Matches page of your member account, there is no direct way to get that information. Project administrators are not supposed to give it out: http://www.familytreedna.com/privacy-policy.aspx The most they can do (are supposed to do) is contact the person for you, giving them your address and the option to contact you. As for their lineage, some projects supply the lineage, some don't. If the project hasn't supplied it, the only way to get it is to contact the person. If you can't contact the person, or if you contact them and they don't respond, you may be out of luck. Occasionally, I'm able to figure out the line once I have the name and email address of the test subject. If someone is an active researcher, they have probably messaged online about their genealogy and their postings will turn up on a Google search.
