    Susan

    I am just another 'lowly' User/Patron ...

    Just in passing ...

    Short Answer: Currently, NOT in 'FamilySearch'.

    'FamilySearch', currently, DOES NOT, have such capabilities.

    [ We can but live in hope ... ]

    As far as I am aware, there are OTHER 'On-Line' Websites, with such capabilities.

    I know, that this certainly does not help/assist.

    Furthermore ...

    Here is a "Knowledge Article" in 'FamilySearch':

    Using DNA in family history research

    https://www.familysearch.org/en/help/helpcenter/article/using-dna-in-family-history-research

    Where it states, among other things:

    Quote:

    ------------------

    Please note that FamilySearch does not endorse or recommend any commercial DNA applications for genetic genealogy.

    Nor does our Family Tree provide specific features to post or link DNA groups based on DNA matches.

    ------------------

    But ...

    That Said ...

    'FamilySearch' does suggest, that DNA Testing, DOES NOT replace traditional forms of Genealogical/Family History research; BUT, rather, that DNA Testing CAN complement a well-documented "Family Tree".

    And ...

    Certainly NOT forgotten ...

    'FamilySearch' provides information and recourses to help navigate DNA in Genealogical/Family History research.

    Here are just some of the resources:
