More than just 1 person will have common ancestry fom William - surely?
After all that was 1000 years ago.

I was also thinking that with over 30,000 members, we need some clues to pinpoint one person. :)

Say maybe the first letter of their user name?

HANCOCK , BUSSON - Somerset
MCCALLUM, MCDIARMID, MCNEILL - Argyle, Scotland
