In the weeks since Ancestry.com began delivering 1950 US Census hints to my family trees, I've been enjoying the convenience of reviewing and adding this information to ancestor profiles.
By now, there are LOTS of hints. The default hint arrangement is by most recent hint added to my list.
But at this point, I'm being choosier about who I want to see first.
As shown above, Blackford is a recent addition to my hint list, but a low priority because the relationship is quite distant. Maternal grandfather of husband of sister-in-law! Not a high priority.
To see more of the people I care more about, I'm going to filter my 1950 US Census hints by name (see star at top). Then I can specify the closer ancestors I want to see first (see image below).

| Filter by first name or last name or both |
Later, I'll go back and review the remaining hints for distant ancestors.
Hope you're having fun finding ancestors and the FAN club (friends, associates, neighbors) in the 1950 Census.
