Sadly true. I learned the hard way. If I had known I would have tried to “bank” an extra.

I used that for my dad. Unfortunately, after his death when I tried to get the autosomal added, they had no more of the DNA left. So don't just assume you can upgrade at any time.

In the meantime, my father and mother passed away. The oldest member left in my fathers "McElroy" line is daddy's brother - my Uncle. He is 83 years old. I am thinking I should get him to do a DNA test. My question is: WHICH type of DNA test should he get? I am not that knowledgeable on the different types of DNA testing - but I do recall that one test is more beneficial for tracking the male line of a family. What test do you recommend?? -- Josie Flynn, RN, BSN, OCN -- LegacyUserGroup mailing list LegacyUserGroup@legacyusers.com <mailto:LegacyUserGroup@legacyusers.com> To manage your subscription and unsubscribe http://legacyusers.com/mailman/listinfo/legacyusergroup_legacyusers.com Archives at: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyusers.com/ -- Patti Vance Hays ~ you live as long as you are remembered ~ http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~pattisgenealogypages/
