Hey, Ron. I finally found some time to try out your procedure for finding mtDNA matches for myself. I have a very short "longest" maternal line, so it was easy to verify results. My mother & grandmother had no sisters, but my great-grandmother had two sisters. The sisters show in the final results, but their daughters do not. I can see that an intersection of my (or my daughter's) ancestors and Abigail Whipple's descendents wouldn't include the sisters' daughters, but if I were looking to see who else was alive that might be carrying the same mtDNA as myself, I would want to include these daughters, and their daughters, and so on. Any thoughts on how I could tweak the procedure? Not urgent for me, just wondering. Thanks,
