i cant seem to view his tree

No, you can't view his tree. You can only view other people's trees if you ask them and they allow it.

You have to **contact him** as already described -- you click on the "Find out more" button beside his name and send him a message.

Never send a message just asking to view somebody's tree, of course. Explain that the person in his tree is your father and you are really hoping to meet other people in his family and get to know more about your family.

ok thank you so much info to look over etc

Then you contact the members you find that way ...
