John (NY),
This email is to share with you that Ancestry.com should send you instructions for logging in.
My educated guess is that family members have been on ancestory.com in the past. They chose to make their Family Trees private. Even if they had not, Ancestry hides the names of living people. Are Janien, Christine, Stephen, Kaitlyn, Nancy, Samantha, Jessica, Kathryn directly related? If so, I hope you will enter their names and birthdates.
I believe the only “general” connection between families is solved, but I have yet to build out the Family Tree to a direct link between the two of us. I believe when you begin adding names and birthdates, we will discover our specific family relationship.
John, I am making you an editor of the Family Tree site. Editor means you have access to everything. It includes individuals who are living and notes.
Send me an email at johnelcik.com with questions or if you need anything.
***The software identifies the individual’s relationship with ME as the “root” individual under each person’s name. Once we have you connected though family data to your Grandfather, I can show you how to make yourself the “root” individual. The presumptive grandparent (my best guess) is John Elcik, born March 16, 1886 – Slovakia and passed on September 05, 1962 – Lewiston, Maine.***

Enjoy!
John, IV
