In this post, I will show how to upload a GEDCOM file to GEDmatch.
Click here if you’d like to open the GEDmatch website in a new window/tab to make it easier to follow along with these steps.
1) Sign in to GEDmatch.com and scroll about halfway down the page to the Profile section. At the lower left, click the Click here to upload a GEDCOM link.
2) On the Family Tree (GEDcom) Upload Page, enter the name for your GEDCOM file (examples are Dan Stone Family Tree, Dan Stone Ancestors, or Stone-Wright Family Tree). Next, select your kit number in the drop down box. Continuing down the page, if all four of your grandparents originate from the same area, enter that into the box, otherwise skip this box. Then, click the appropriate radio button as to whether you have permission to show the individuals in your tree. Next, click the Browse button to locate your GEDCOM file on your computer. Finally, once you’ve selected your GEDCOM file on your computer, click the green Upload button.
Congratulations, you have successfully uploaded your family tree to GEDmatch. If you experience any problems while following these steps, or notice that a screen has changed from what I’ve shown in the screenshots, please let me know by commenting on this thread or sending me an email.
