This rabbit hole took some time, but wasn't very deep.
I wrote about Greg Clarke's AncestryDNA Match Table Maker tool in Rabbit Holes With Randy - Updating my DNA Match Lists (26 January 2022) and in Downloading My AncestryDNA Match List With Google Sheets (17 March 2021).
I downloaded the Ancestry DNA Match Table Maker again from the website https://landing.mailerlite.com/webforms/landing/z4i7v1 and the Google Sheets form will be emailed to you. I noted that it is Version 1.10 now. I followed the directions on the form and made a copy, and renamed it, so that I could use and edit the form. Then I went into my AncestryDNA Common Ancestor match list and copied the whole list (using Ctrl-A) and followed the directions on the form using the "Newest w Recognize btn" sheet and copied the AncestryDNA data into Cell A6 (using "Shift-Ctrl-V).
The results at the top of the sheet is below:
So I now have 474 AncestryDNA matches with a Common Ancestor. It was 453 back in January 2022 and 417 in March 2021.
I also found that I don't have a Note on four of the matches, so I need to go into AncestryDNA and write a note about the relationship, cM value, and common ancestor from the ThruLines provided.
This took me awhile to get everything correct, but I was successful!
