Since completing an Ancestry DNA test I have been able to identify a number of distant cousins who have also completed a DNA test.

I want to identify them in the records window and with the help of Lists/configure record window columns I have been able to add a column ‘DNA Markers’.

With the help of FH/General Topics/DNA Tools I have been able to add a Fact – DNA Markers to a cousin who I know has completed a DNA. Once I had done that I expected that person to have a tick in the DNA Markers column of the records window. But nothing appears.

What am I doing wrong? Have I got the process of recording relatives DNA completely wrong?

One other question – when I highlight the DNA Marker in the facts page a window appears below. Is this the ‘attribute value field’ as referred to in the DNA tools page.
