Genetic Genealogy, a new branch of genealogy combining genetics and traditional genealogy research, is the most accurate tool for the family historian. Family connections can be proven or disproven. DNA testing can support a paper trail which is often in question given the lack of surviving records. Its popularity grows daily with thousands testing monthly throughout the world.Genealemhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08862053925857198520noreply@blogger.comBlogger246125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5217578981136853097.post-6629516567024077862023-02-05T20:51:00.000-08:002023-02-05T20:51:05.839-08:00I Know Who You Are by Barbara Rae-Venter<p> I realize I have been delinquently about posting to my blog, but this book has given me cause to shine a light on a very, very important person in the field of genetic genealogy and Investigative Genetic Genealogy.

(Combined DNA Index System) was </span><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 9.5pt; text-indent: 0.5in;">a pilot project of the FBI established to
create a National DNA Index for law enforcement. CODIS became fully operational
in 1998, but is limited since its data is composed of information from previously
convicted felons, felony arrestees, missing persons, and unidentified human
remains. Sadly, many crime scene DNA specimens do not provide a match to CODIS.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; font-size: 9.5pt; mso-color-alt: windowtext; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">However, through public
databases, DNA has become important in solving cold cases. Autosomal DNA has
been used since 2009 by genealogists to find their cousins. Today it is being
used more and more to help law enforcement solve violent crimes and identify
human remains. The methodology used in determining the name of the Golden State
Killer has evolved into a new field called Investigative Genetic Genealogy
(IGG).</span><span style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; font-size: 9.5pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

You Are, </i>Barbara Rae-Venter takes us on a journey to show how the events of
her life assisted her in doing Investigative Genetic Genealogy and in solving
cold cases. The book’s </span><span style="background: white; color: black; font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; font-size: 9.5pt; mso-color-alt: windowtext;">central plot is about
the Golden State Killer, but covers</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; font-size: 9.5pt; mso-color-alt: windowtext; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"> other cold cases Barbara has solved, as
well. And, she tackles the ethical dilemma of allowing law enforcement access
to public databases to solve crimes. Barbara has graciously provided a glossary
for those who are not familiar with the terminology for genetic genealogy (the
use of DNA for genealogy).</span><span style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; font-size: 9.5pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

determined in 63 days after his DNA profile was uploaded to a public database.
It had been forty years since his last crime. The various investigators over
those years had worked many thousands of hours at great expense to the state of
California. Luckily, the medical examiner who took a DNA swab of one victim was
wise enough to take two swabs which was not required of him. This second
pristine swab helped Barbara use her resources to get enough DNA to begin
matching that DNA from the perpetrator with others in public databases. Not
only does the book provide us with some horrific statements from the victims
and family of the victims at the hearing and sentencing, but she recou</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; font-size: 9.5pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">nts
how DeAngelo behaved during these times and that it was an act.</span><span style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; font-size: 9.5pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: justify; text-indent: .5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; font-size: 9.5pt; mso-color-alt: windowtext; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Barbara was raised in
New Zealand and came to America at the age of twenty. She first became involved
with genealogy and then genetic genealogy. She soon volunteered to help
adoptees find their birth parents. Her skills as a patent attorney (now
retired) assisted her to look outside the box, as we say. Barbara is tenacious,
and as she wrote in her book, she believes “everyone deserves their name.” She
has given names, and often faces, to long-unidentified victims.</span><span style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; font-size: 9.5pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

London in 2013 at the Who Do You Think You Are? Conference. Our group was
touring Darwin’s home when Barbara and I first conversed. We met again at the Southern
California Genealogy Society’s conference in June 2018, and she told me then that
she had determined Joseph James DeAngelo was the Golden State Killer. Barbara’s
name was not made public at that time due to her wishes to stay anonymous, but
her book provides the reasons why she later decided to share her name. Sadly,
one reason was due to another genetic genealogist claiming to have found the
Golden State Killer.</span><span style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; font-size: 9.5pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

into custody, April 2018, I had the privilege of having Barbara speak to my
local genealogy society, March 30-31, 2019. As she stayed at my home, we had
time to become more acquainted with each other. Not only is Barbara brilliant, she
is very humble and gracious. </span><span style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; font-size: 9.5pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

book, The Bear Brook Murders in Allenstown, New Hampshire, was a
thirty-year-old cold case solved by Barbara in 2017. This was the first time in
history that U.S. Law Enforcement used autosomal DNA from a rootless hair
sample to solve a crime, and the first time that genetic genealogy was used to
gain the identity of a living criminal. Barbara was responsible for both techniques
being used, and she found the killer just a few days after the DNA profiles
were determined.</span><span style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; font-size: 9.5pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

Rae-Venter has transformed how law enforcement solves crimes. We owe much to
her! Thank you, Barbara, for all you do to help victims and their families find
some peace.</span><span style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; font-size: 9.5pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

It’s wise to upgrade during
a sale, and if you have any Y test below the Y-67, it is definitely wise to
upgrade. If you do not have the Full Mitochondrial Sequence (FMS), that is equally
important.<o:p></o:p></div>

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
Greetings!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This email is only for those who have tests at AncestyDNA. Also,
if you have Chrome and MedBetter, you REALLY need to read this!!!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Many of you already know about AncestryDNA’s coming update
where they will remove all your matches from 6-8cMs unless they are in a group,
have a note or you have emailed the match.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
To clarify, not all the 8cMs will be removed. Because
Ancestry is removing 6-7cMs for sure and because they round up the cMs, some of
your 8cMs will be gone, if they are really 7.99 and below. You won’t know which
ones.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I have spent many, many hours for over a week trying to save
my 6-8cMs.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>After a week’s work on them I
thought I was done as Ancestry indicated I was at the bottom of each list (6cM,
7cM and 8 cMs.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Note that I had also
checked the ThruLines and put them in groups as well as the New Matches. BUT,
not so….<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I’m writing this in the case you have the same situation and
may not know it.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
After spending a week on doing the above, I returned to the
8cMs and noticed a huge percentage did not have groups.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>WHAT!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I also had a recent half-first cousin test at Ancestry. She
was not showing up in my matches and I wasn’t in hers.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We share the same grandmother.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I called Ancestry and they told me we were on
each other and what group we were in for each other.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The woman at Ancestry suggested I clean my
cache and try another browser.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I did
both of those.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Chrome, my favorite,
constantly updates the site so I wasn’t worried that I didn’t have the current
version.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Then I posted to a DNA Facebook group and someone suggested
there could be an extension, such as MedBetter.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Well, I do use MedBetter.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
See more about <b><span style="color: red;"><a href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/medbetterdna/gnbpjempamffbpppblmabeeimkppenla?hl=en-US" target="_blank">MedBetter</a> </span>at </b><o:p></o:p><span style="color: blue;">https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/medbetterdna/gnbpjempamffbpppblmabeeimkppenla?hl=en-US</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I removed MedBetter, and there was not only my currently
tested cousin but another cousin that I used to have in my list, but I thought
she had removed her kit. AND... there were some others that I had not
remembered seeing until they reappeared.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>I am talking recent matches here…2<sup>nd</sup> to 3<sup>rd</sup> cousins.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
SO, to prove to myself that MedBetter was the reason my
groups I had formed for a week was the culprit, I spent the last three days
(except for cooking, eating, sleeping for only 5-6 hrs, and watering my garden)
redoing all my 8cMs matches. I just finished a few minutes ago (Today is 26 Jul
2020 1:20 pm).<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I have 17, 733 8cMs. I
now have to redo all the 7cMs and 6cMs.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Here are some tips I learned along the way. Maybe they will
work for you…<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Grouping

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpFirst" style="mso-list: l1 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -.25in;">
<!--[if !supportLists]--><span style="mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin;"><span style="mso-list: Ignore;">1.<span style="font: 7.0pt "Times New Roman";">
</span></span></span><!--[endif]-->Work on one set of cMs at a time (6, 7, or 8). I
personally suggest starting with 8cMs as there is a slightly better chance of
finding a common ancestor, but do as you wish.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="mso-list: l1 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -.25in;">
<!--[if !supportLists]--><span style="mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin;"><span style="mso-list: Ignore;">2.<span style="font: 7.0pt "Times New Roman";">
</span></span></span><!--[endif]-->Create a group and label it so it will appear
just after the star.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>(The groups are in alphabetical
order.) (I’m beginning to HATE yellow after using that dot! LOL)<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="mso-list: l1 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -.25in;">
<!--[if !supportLists]--><span style="mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin;"><span style="mso-list: Ignore;">3.<span style="font: 7.0pt "Times New Roman";">
</span></span></span><!--[endif]-->Reduce the size of the font on the page. This
makes for less scrolling and the ability to see more matches on a page.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="mso-list: l1 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -.25in;">
<!--[if !supportLists]--><span style="mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin;"><span style="mso-list: Ignore;">4.<span style="font: 7.0pt "Times New Roman";">
</span></span></span><!--[endif]-->Once you decide which cM list you are doing, use
your FIND link (see the three dots in the upper right of Chrome.) and enter a
name. Chrome highlights that name in orange. This makes it easy to spot where you
started. (I cannot help you if you have another browser or MAC.)<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="mso-list: l1 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -.25in;">

</span></span></span><!--[endif]-->Scroll down a bit from your highlighted name (as
far as you wish to work for a time period). Then, work from the bottom of that
group upward to the name you highlighted. Why?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Because you only have to do two clicks to get someone in a group by
going from bottom to top. Otherwise, you do three clicks. When you are talking
about thousands of names that is a big difference!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="mso-list: l1 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -.25in;">
<!--[if !supportLists]--><span style="mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin;"><span style="mso-list: Ignore;">6.<span style="font: 7.0pt "Times New Roman";">
</span></span></span><!--[endif]-->Once you have worked your way back to the top
where your name is highlighted, you can quickly scroll down to where you began
adding people to a group to make sure you did not skip anyone or that you
clicked too quickly and the dot did not register. This gives you two
opportunities to hit everyone. You can very quickly scroll down to where you
started in this group, so that goes quickly. Just focus on the dot to see where
there is not one.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpLast" style="mso-list: l1 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -.25in;">

of the list you started. Then begin a new section, and repeat from number 4.<o:p></o:p></div>

</span></span></span><!--[endif]-->Check your Newest Matches. See <b>SORT</b> and
choose <b>DATE</b> which gives you the newest to the most distant. Again, you
only need to group 6-8cMs so add those to your filtered search. This you will
want to do several times before Ancestry dumps everything which, in theory is
the end of August. Of course, they are not clear on what “the end of August”
means, so complete all this the week before the end of August to be safe.<o:p></o:p></div>

</span></span></span><!--[endif]-->Search for your surnames and if 8cMs or less,
group them. You can actually search for a surname within a cM section.
(REMEMBER: you can use multiple filters)<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Know that if you have not completed a cM section and you
exit it, then you may have to spend a lot of time scrolling down to where you left
working. I have had to scroll for 50 minutes to get back to where I was, and I
still had a good day’s work to complete the section. For this reason, I left my
computer as its for three days!<o:p></o:p></div>

I just received this today after writing with my concerns that this removal is happening too quickly, and that one of my tester's result was due July 31.<br />
<br />
<br />
The email stated: <br />

<span style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Hello Emily,<br />
<br />
Thank you for contacting Ancestry in regard to AncestryDNA matches. We
apologize for the delayed response, and are happy to help.<br />
<br />
We have reviewed your inquiry, and feel that this information may help.As
Ancestry continues to improve the accuracy of our DNA matching algorithms,
we’ll be changing the way we calculate the amount of DNA that members share
with their matches. Here’s what these changes will mean for our
members:<br />
<br />
More Accurate number of shared segments (Goes live early August)<br />
The DNA you share with a match is distributed across short segments, long
segments, or some combination of both. Our updated matching algorithm may
reduce the estimated number of segments you share with some of your DNA
matches. This doesn’t change the estimated total amount of shared DNA
(measured in centimorgans/cM) or the predicted relationship to your
matches.<br />
<br />
<br />
Ability to see the length of the longest shared segment (Goes live
Mid-August)<br />
The length of the longest segment you and a DNA match have in common can help
determine if you’re actually related. The longer the segment, the more likely
you’re related. Segment length is also the easiest way to evaluate the
difference between multiple matches that all show the same estimated
relationship. Our updated matching algorithm can show you the length of the
longest segment you share with your matches.<br />
<br />
<br />
Distant DNA matches must share 8 cM or higher (Goes live late August)<br />
Our updated matching algorithm will increase the likelihood you’re actually
related to very distant matches. As a result, you’ll no longer see matches or
be matched to people who share 7.9 cM or less DNA with you unless you’ve
messaged them and/or included them in a note, or added them to a group
(including your starred group). This means you will have fewer DNA matches
and ThruLines™.<br />
<br />
Based on customer feedback, we are delaying this change until late August so
you have time to review and determine if you want to save any very distant
matches by adding them to a group, starring them, adding a note, or sending
them a message.<br />
<br />
We hope this helps. Thank you for contacting Ancestry. Have a nice day!<br />
<br />
<br />
If you need additional assistance, please feel free to reply to this message
or call us at 1-800-ANCESTRY (1-800-262-3787) between the hours of 9am to
11pm EST, seven days a week.<br />
<br />
Sincerely,<br />

Ancestry removes more matches...it's not the first time.<br />
<br />
By now, most of you know that starting around August 1 (no definate time has been given), Ancestry will change their algorithm and removed all matches at 6 and 7cM unless you have a note on them or have them in a catagory or have emailed them.<br />
<br />
I've been working hours on just getting my 7cMs in a group. I have run into issues with the site stopping before it allows me to download all the matches in their running page. If we had page numbers as I mentioned to them when they decided to drop those, this would be easier and go faster. For example after working HOURs yesterday just on 7cMs, I think I only had a couple of hundred to go. It took me 50 minutes of continually using the down arrow to get back to where I stopped. After that the site froze again.<br />
<br />
I also had a call last night from a friend who was VERY upset as she had 42 tests she manages ...AND as she is African American she needs thos lower centiMorgans for her research. AND, she hasn't even begun with the matches who are in African. Although this may seem too small, it has lead her to answers using theses centiMorgans form 6-7.<br />
<br />
AND, I have found at least two-dozen matche at the 7cM range that appear not to match me any other way since I have Colonial Ancestors and a pedigree chart that is robust, using GPS (Genealogy Proof Standards).<br />
<br />
So...why am I whining about all this? I need you to know that you have a short amount of time to do a big job, along with thousands of other testers.<br />
<br />
At least we have a couple of weeks. In the past we didn't know how much time for some of their chantges.<br />
<br />
SO...as I need to return to my matches list, I'm just going to post these blogs where you can read about what to do.<br />

Y-12 to Big Y-700 was $399; now $359<br />

Y-111 to Big Y-700 was $239; now $229<br />
Big Y-500 to Big Y-700 was $209; now $199<br />
<br />
Only at Family Tree DNA can you get the Y-chromosome test. You may ask why should I upgrade, well...<br />
<br />
Each test level (i.e., Y-37 tests 37 markers on the Y-chromosome) has threshold, so by upgrading you can get additional matches. Also, the &-37 is now considered the most basic Y test and if you have a common haplogroup you can receive hundreds of matches which may not be that close in generations. You really need to upgrade to narrow the matches to whom is most relevant.<br />
<br />
We typically do not see another sale until Summer so don't pass this by.<br />
<br />

Greetings!<br />
<br />
I know many of you are staying home due to our world's heath issues. At least, I hope very many of you are home so we can slow this virus and give the medical facilities the ability to handle those in need.<br />
<br />
However, I do know that many of you may be a bit bored. Of course, you can get out into your yards or on the sidewalks as long as you do not come in contact with others. A daily walk is good for you, as well as breathing that fresh air. BUT, that means many hours inside. What to do!!!<br />
<br />
I have many ideas, especially since those of you reading this are genealogists!<br />
<br />
1. In your search engine, put a topic of interest on genealogy or genetic genealogy and then add: YouTube. There will be many, many free webinars that could interest you.<br />
<br />
2. Other free webinars: <br />
<b><a href="http://www.familytreedna.com/" target="_blank">Family Tree DNA</a></b> has them on all their tests. Scroll to the bottom of the home page and click on LEARNING CENTER and put WEBINAR in the search box.<br />
<b><a href="https://legacyfamilytree.com/" target="_blank">Legacy Family Tree</a></b> has many on both genealogy and genetic genealogy. They are also available a week after they are presented. You do not get the handouts, however. Go to: <a href="https://familytreewebinars.com/"><b>https://familytreewebinars.com/</b></a><br />
<br />
3. Check Facebook for many, many genealogy and genetic genealogy groups. Your questions are welcomed and many people are ready to answer them.<br />
<br />
4. Test your DNA if you have not and test cousins and other relatives. Companies have sales rather often. Check their websites. If you have tested, at AncestryDNA, 23andMe, MyHeritage, transfer to Family Tree DNA and pay the $19 to get all the bells and whistles. MyHeritage takes transfers, also, but costs a bit more.<br />
<br />
5. Read genetic genealogy blogs. These are some of my favorites:<br />
<b><a href="https://dna-explained.com/" target="_blank">DNAeXplained </a></b>by Roberta J. Estes<br />
<b><a href="https://thegeneticgenealogist.com/" target="_blank">The Genetic Genealogist</a> </b>by Blaine Bettinger<br />
<a href="http://blog.kittycooper.com/" target="_blank"><b>Kitty Cooper's Blog</b></a><br />
<br />
6. If you have an adoption in your family or a recent line which is unknown, <a href="https://dnaadoption.org/" target="_blank"><b>DNAAdoption.org</b> </a>may help. Get involved with the discussions and download the free handout entitled <i><a href="http://cms.dnaadoption.org/uploads/DNAadoption/DNAadoption_files/General/Methodology_for_Researching_Autosomal_DNA_Results_V3_1-9-2015.pdf" target="_blank"><b>A Methodology to Indentify Relatives with autosomal DNA Test Data</b></a></i>.<br />
<br />
7. Enhance your pedigree chart. The more detailed it is, the easier to find the common ancestors you share with your matches. Not only use the subscriptions you have, use your browser to search various counties and libraries for additional information. Be creative with your searches.<br />
<br />
8. Carefully go through your pedigree in your genealogy software to locate errors to correct. Often you can find duplication of names that need merging. Spelling errors from quick typing seem to be my issue!<br />
<br />
9. Write a bio for some of your family members or ancestors. Your descendants will appreciate your compiling names, dates, and places into a narrative. These can be short vignettes. I teach a class on writing one's childhood memories and family stories and find several of my members compile these stories and give them as a Christmas gift. You have time to do this now.<br />
<br />
10. Do not forget to write about your own life. No matter how boring you may think it will be, it is not. AND, write about the times in which we live now. Your experiences are very much more important than those of our collective society or what the historians write. If you need help or ideas, see my blog: <b><a href="https://writingyourmemories.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Writing Your Memories</a></b>. My booklet <i><b>"Memoing" My Memories</b></i> provides 130 topics, and for each topic you can write many more than a single story or two. You can only order it directly from me. The beginning of the blog has many tips and suggestions on writing; later are some wonderful stories written by my class members...some are so funny; some just cannot be explained; some are a bit scary! Just browse through them all.<br />
<br />
11. Search <b><a href="https://books.google.com/" target="_blank">Google Books </a></b>and other free ebooks on your topic or location of interest. You can even save them to review later.<br />
<br />
12. Read the books you have on genetic genealogy or order more from Amazon.<br />
<br />
13. Check-in with your matches and other researchers you know to collaborate on your lines and to share this list.<br />
<br />
14. So by now, in needing a break from our all-consuming hobby, clean out those closets...or like me, clean off my desk (One would think I was a CPA in the middle of tax season!) Do those awful household chores and get some exercise even if it is only in they house or yard.<br />
<br />
15. Check on friends and family via the phone, email, etc. If you have a surplus of items that someone who is sheltering in place may need, offer to share. Just drop off the items at the front door so not to expose anyone. I have already done this. We must support each other.<br />
<br />
Above all, stay safe and be well.<br />
<br />
Hugs to you all.<br />
Emily<br />

There are small marks where the lines do go back farther. This was also very easy me to add more ancestors. Just click on the blank and up pops a screen. What I really love is the fact that you have many choices for dates, including: exact, circa, before, between, after, etc. AND...by clicking on a name (see the one is light orange), details of the family are displayed on the left, just as you see with the other pedigree layouts.</span></div>

</ul>
<div>
If you are stuck at a Y-12 or Y-25, know that the Y-25 no longer exists.</div>
<div>
Upgrades for the Y-12 and Y-25 are:</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Y-12 to Y-37, now $79</div>
<div>
Y-12 to Y-67, now $149</div>
<div>
Y-12 to Y-111, now $199</div>
<div>
Y-12 to Big Y-700, now $399 (not including the BAM file)</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Y-25 to Y-37, now $49</div>
<div>
Y-25 to Y-67, now $119</div>
<div>
Y-25 to Y-111, now $189</div>
<div>
Y-25 to Big Y-700, now $389 (not including the BAM file</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Family Finder is still $79, but when it is on sale there is very little profit, so that is understandable.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The bundle of a Y-37 and Family Finder saves you $9 and is now $189.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Shipping is now $9.95 U.S. and $12.95 for International.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I greatly encourage you to upgrade or test at the Y-37 level or higher. The Y-37 is now the very basic, and if you happen to be in a large haplogroup (your twig on the world family tree) such as R and I, your matches can be numerous and many may not show as each test level has its own maximum threshold. Therefore, by testing at a Y-67 you may find more matches that you would at a Y-37.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Also know that the mtDNA Plus no longer exists so there is now only the Full Sequence. This is also good as the mtDNA is slower to mutate so matches could be farther back in time, and the full mtDNA gives a clearer picture of who matches you. Again, if you are in a common haplogroup such as H and U, you may have hundreds of matches.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>Remember</b>, always contact and work with the matches who have the fewest genetic distances first. They will match you more closely in time than those with high genetic distances. (A genetic distance is the differences you and a match have on your test results. For example, if you and a match have a difference of 2 on one marker you have a genetic distance of 2. Zero is a perfect match. Allow the company to determine the genetic distance as some markers are calculated differently.)</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>The key to finding common ancestors </b>for your matches is to have a <b>ROBUST </b>pedigree chart. Remember to use <a href="https://bcgcertification.org/ethics-standards/" target="_blank">Genealogy Proof Standards</a> (GPS) in creating your pedigree. AND...upload your tree to the website!!!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Thank you FTDNA for the New Year's gift!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
SO...all of you out there, test and enjoy!</div>
<div>
Remember, you could be my cousin...</div>

<br />
<br />
Not only does Family Tree DNA have sales on many of their tests, they are allowing <b>FREE</b> shipping on the kits. This is a great sale. You do not always see upgrades on sale.<br />
<br />
Also, the tests below the FMS (Full Mitochondrial Sequence) are now quite antiquated. You really need the FMS.<br />
<br />
The same goes for any Y-DNA test below a Y-37. AND, frankly, that is even not real useful, especially if you are in a major haplogroup.<br />
<br />
It is wise to upgrade these tests since so many people are testing and you need to know more detail about how you connect to them.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Single Tests:</b><br />
Family Finder (FF).......Reg. $79; now $49<br />
Y-37 ..............................Reg. $169; now $99<br />
Y-111.............................Reg. $359; now $199<br />
Big Y700.......................Reg. $649; now $399<br />
FMS...............................Reg. $199; now $139<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Bundles:</b><br />
$9 off of each additional tested added to a bundle<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Upgrades:</b><br />
Y-12 to 37......................Reg. $109; now $79<br />
Y-12 to 67......................Reg. $199; now $149<br />
Y-12 to 111....................Reg. $359; now $169<br />
<br />
Y-25 to 37......................Reg. $59; now $49<br />
Y-25 to 67......................Reg. $159; now $119<br />
Y-25 to 111....................Reg. $269; now $149<br />
<br />
Y-37 to 67......................Reg. $109; now $69<br />
Y-37 to 111....................Reg. $228; now $119<br />
<br />
Y-67 to 111....................Reg. $99; now $69<br />
<br />
Y-12 to Big Y-700.............Reg. $629; now $359<br />
Y-25 to Big Y-700.............Reg. $599; now $349<br />
Y-37 to Big Y-700.............Reg. $569; now $319<br />
Y-67 to Big Y-700.............Reg. $499; now $259<br />
Y-111 to Big Y-700............Reg. $499; now $229<br />
Big Y-500 to Big Y-700....Reg. $249; now $189<br />
<br />
mtDNA to FMS.................Reg. $159; now $99<br />
mtPlus to FMS...................Reg. $159; now $99<br />

changes to how they are able to download raw data for the Big Y
product. Below are further details.<br />
<br />
For customers who purchase a Big Y-700 starting 11/01/19, the product
will not include downloadable raw data. However, customers will have
the option to purchase the “Big Y Raw Data” product after the Big Y
test has begun processing.<br />
<br />
Customers who purchased a Big Y-700 or Big Y-500 prior to 11/01/19,
will continue to have access to their downloadable raw data. These
existing customers will see a new product added to their Order
History called “Big Y Raw Data.” This product has been added at no
charge to ensure continued access to their downloadable raw data.<br />
<br />
The downloadable raw data is expensive for FTDNA to provide for our
customers and only a small portion of Big Y participants request this
download. Rather than continue to pass this cost along to all Big Y
participants, we have chosen to only charge those who wish to
download their BAM file for that data. This change allows us to
