    In "Diahan's Rules for labeling" it states "Every Shared Match gets a dot" \nI'm finding several of my matches, have no tree or with no surnames that connect to my surnames. I have no idea how they are connected to me. Nothinng in their information is familier, \nHow do I put a dot on them?

    Always love Diahan's presentations. So informative and interesting. She talks in layman's terms so the average person can understand the concept of DNA. She makes it easy.

    As usual even though I've taken zillions of Diahan's courses there was new, incredibly well-organized information here. Well done, Diahan.
