Doing a Search for my Wife's Ancestors

I hope I can make sense with this. I know that I can look on my profile and do a search for a specific name and check the relationship. For instance, I am 6th cousin twice removed to Quanah Parker, the great Comanche leader.

A few years back I somehow checked my wife to see if she was related to Quanah because of family lore. I discovered she was also a cousin, but for the life of me, I cannot remember how I found it.

So. my question is, can I somehow look on my wife's profile (she does not have her own account) and search for Quanah as an ancestor? I know it is probably simple, but I just don't know how. If you can help. I would really appreciate it. Thanks for your patience with non-tekkie me!

    @MarkHaynes9 try the https://relativefinder.org/#/start . It lets you sign in as yourself and view the relationship between 2 other people, which the main FS site does not.

    Relative Finder will only work for deceased ancestors, so maybe try using it with her parents or grandparents, assuming she is still living.
