If you are fortunate enough for a DNA match to have a family tree associated with it, there are several reasons why there are no name “matches” between your trees, including the following: one of you does not have the tree back far enough to see the match one (or both of you) has a mistake in your tree that is only compounded as the lineage is extended there was an adoption in your lineage that no one told anyone about the stated father of a child was not the biological father Sifting through these possibilities takes time and may require more extensive research.
