Elaine M,

Yes, Living DNA will accept transfers. I believe FTDNA's raw data is better
than Ancestry DNA's: It has almost twice the amount of SNPs. But since I've
been out of it this year (my mom's death and my dad's surgeries), I'm not
entirely sure how to do it.  I did a Google search and found this:

Living DNA transfers:
Family Tree DNA (.csv file, Build37) - mtDNA only or yDNA only files are
not eligible. *Please note that FTDNA files download as a .gz file. This
will need to be unzipped to a  .csv file before we can accept the upload.*

This link doesn't seem to work:
https://my.livingdna.com/upload/start?referrer=d24d0f72-4451-4e35-ac18-9753be149e75
I'll see what I can find out. I want to upload my mom's there, since I was
unable to test her before she passed.
