I am new to the forums and to Drupal so If I am in the wrong spot for this I'm sorry.

I am using the Wishlist module on Drupal 7.9 for my family's Christmas Wish Lists. I have about 60 user accounts that spread across 6 family names. I created a taxonomy vocabulary with the family names as the terms and then added a new field to the user information via config-->Account Settings-->Manage Fields. My new field is a list of my terms with check boxes that users can select when accounts are created and the data shows up with the user's profile info.

How it seems to be related in the database: (dots used to separate the tables and fields)
User.........field_familygroup.................taxonomy_form_data
Uid....=........entity_id
...............field_familygroup_tid....=.................tid

What I would like to do is this:
when a user logs in I would like them to only see the other users that share the same family groups.
(so if I'm saying this right: ONLY show the users that share a family group id with the member logged in)

ex: my brother's wife's mother (sally) would only see my brother (frank) and his wife (her daughter-mary) and herself because sally is not related to frank's family.

I have the view started, but I don't know how to get the filters set up right.

any ideas?

Thanks
