Thanks for the replies, The problem was I had contacted a person about someone in my tree. On another branch I had seen a possible link with someone whom I had not contacted, I went to contact them and the same name came up as before. Total confusion!!!!! Sue:-) |

If you have contacted the person before then they will show up in Your Contacts (unless you have deleted that person from the contact list) |

Sue, if I'm not sure if I have contacted the person before, I go ahead and start to contact them -- it shows you the first name, which usually helps me determine if I've contacted them already. (And then press the back key to stop the contact.) |

Thanks for that Lisa, wasn't sure if I would be contacting the same person twice. Sue:-) |

Hi Sue: I just checked my contact, "John Smith". It shows that I contacted him, our shared ancestor "Joe Jones" and "John's" ancestor "Mary Brown", so the answer is yes, it shows more than just your shared ancestor. |

If I contact 'Joe Bloggs' about 'Fred Bloggs' in their tree, does it show that I have contacted them with any other names we share i.e 'Jane Doe' or just the 'Bloggs' names? Sue:-) |
