Ancestry - removing DNA matches below 8 cM
Ancestry have announced they are raising the threshold of DNA matches to 8 cM - it is currently 6 cM.
From early August, you will no longer see your current matches below 8 cM, and will no longer receive new matches below this threshold.
You can take steps to keep some of your existing matches, by adding them to groups, or adding a note to them.
This article gives some estimates on how many matches you will lose, and how to keep them. https://www.
