No Family Album Automatically Created

After much time and trouble, I have been able to get all features of Family Share to work except Photos. Apple documentation says that a shared Family Album will the automatically created but neither me (the organizer) nor my husband have that Album. Any ideas on what is going on and how to get the Family Album?

Did you follow the instructions via the following link for iOS 8?

Re: No Family Album Automatically Created

This is for setting up a shared album for anyone. According to Apple " When Family Sharing is turned on, a shared album is set up automatically in the Photos app on all family members’ devices." We get all of the Family Sharing (Calendar, Reminders, Apps, Tunes, Books) except for the Family Album in Photos.
