I've had some success with my Hot Matches but the frustration I have is that they don't seem to consolidate. What I mean by that is my mum and I are both working on our trees seperatley but obviously sharing what we have. She appears in my Hot Matches pages on 3 seperate occasions with 85, 41 and 28 names. Is there a way that I can get her just once with the total. I have this with lots of people and it does make my hot matches unecessarily long. I hope I have explained this so someone understands and more importantly can help. Thanks

Yes, I am the same, the HMs are fragmented. I imagine it is a program glitch with GR. I recall it was OK last month.

So I'm not missing something or not doing something I should be? Thanks for that.

I have a few duplicate names on mine. One person had 93 on one and 49 on the other. I tried to delete the one with 49 but GR deleted both! My apologies, Brian, I didnt intend to wipe you out completely.

Ive had quite a few good results with hot matches, and these were worth the time it took to trawl through my 'hot matches' ( admitedly most were useless), i still appreciate the service though- as i say- a few decent results for me.
