Record Hints never include my wife's family.

I use record hints regularly for adding records to my family, however I never receive hints for my wife's family. Am I doing something wrong?

    You're not doing anything wrong. That's the way that record hints are designed to work -- they are for you and your ancestors and cousins, not for your spouse's family.

    Your wife can sign in with her account and receive hints for her family.

    If you go to Tree view and turn on the record hint blue buttons - you can see up and down lines, those folks that have records to review for source linker. You can review and attach any valid sources you like.

    The email notifications will be more specific to your own line. As will be the Record Hints on the FS home page.
