I've been patiently waiting to upload my results (and my mothers) to Gedmatch. I figured that being patient would pay off and I wouldn't get frustrated with trying and failing over and over.
I actually created an account weeks ago. Today I went to look at uploading my results. I am a little flummoxed by the instructions on entering the name of the donor. It says :
"Spelling should EXACTLY match spelling used on the Ancestry.Com site
including capitalization, initials, periods, etc."
I am wondering what exactly to enter. My username on Ancestry is "Shalandara". On my main DNA results page it says:
"Elizabeth Ernst
This test is shown to your DNA matches as: Shalandara
Linked to Elizabeth Jane Betts"
Similar for my mom:
"Susan Greene Hadley
This test is shown to your DNA matches as: S. H. (Administered by Shalandara)
Linked to Susan Greene Hadley "
So, what do I enter as the name of the donor?
EDITED TO ADD/CLARIFY:
Do I enter "Elizabeth Ernst", "Shalandara", or "Elizabeth Jane Betts"?
For my mother, do I enter "Susan Greene Hadley" or "S. H. (Administered by Shalandara)"
Thanks in advance,
Elizabeth
