I have never done the gedcom. thing. I do like to add bit by bit so that I can double check each one as I go and also check for matches. Some people do though.

Thank You Christine
Do you think it is worth sending my FTM as a gedcom to GR?

Just had a little giggle to myself - I cant belive I have only being doing this for 2 weeks and have got all these abbreviations and gedcom things sussed!!

I have had the same problem and at present it cannot be done. However if someone uploads from a gedcom I think it shows on GR. All you can do is annotate your tree in the notes section

I have been plodding along nicely with my tree only to find I started to recognise the names I was putting in, why - because I found that 2 brothers married 2 sisters (thats villages for you!). How can I show this on my GR tree?
I have just invested in FTM and it explains how to do it on there bit it doesnt look possible on GR.
I would be grateful of any help with this.
Thanks for reading
