FamilySearch: Family Tree

    I'm entering one of my ONS branches on to the Family Tree at the LDS FamilySearch site. You can upload a GEDCOM file, but then have to review each member and see if they match an existing entry. With many of them this is not a problem.

    However with some people, I get 100s of possible matches, mainly people who share christian name and year of birth - so Mary Micklethwaite of 1813 gets matched with all the Marys (no surname given) born in 1813. Has anyone else experienced this? Anyone else use the LDS Family Tree?
