How to get others to supply Patriarchs

[Bill]

Hi everyone.
Looking at my y-results numbers (the first 12), I'm one off from D-33
and one off from the D-5,D-34,D-46 group. None of these members have
posted their Patriarchs, which defeats the purpose of a Surname Project.
Anyway I/we can get this data?

I agree completely that it defeats the purpose if the missing pedigrees aren't posted on the Patriarch page.  It would be very beneficial to have a basic lineage for D-4, D-5, D-8, D-12, D-15, D-18, D-23, D-29, D-33, D-34, D-35, D-37, D-38, D-39, D-40, D-43, and D-44.

As a participant who expected so much more, I also wonder if there could be more effort made to involve or include those missing.  We don't need their email addresses, we just need their pedigrees for the sake of comparison.

Four of the above mentioned D#s (5,8,12,23) have either not signed the release form for FTDNA or, we don't have e-mail or contact info.

I have contacted the older numbers once in a while, most of them with a phone call. All the missing trees have recently received an updated welcome letter. We are up to 60 project members now and really need your Dawson ancestors.

I would love to post my pedigree in the patriarch's page, but I have been unable to figure out how.  I have sent my pedigree to Carrie with no results.  I have a kit#213583, but have been unable to get an ID number.  Again, I have been unable to figure out how.  I have had none of these problems with the R-U198 project.
