Autosomal DNA is not reported in the same way as yDNA or mtDNA (mitochondrial) are. yDNA and mtDNA results are easy to enter because they have values attached to specific fields so Legacy provides a place to enter this information. Autosomal is different. If you download your raw data you will see a text file approx 8MB in size with thousands of values.
Most people create DNA events to record their DNA info. You can add the testing company, the date tested, the kit number (if applicable) the GEDmatch number (if applicable) and any other notes. You can screenshot your ethnicity percentages and attach that to the event media gallery. Be aware though that your ethnicity percentages will change from time to time as the companies run their algorithms against additional reference samples. You can also use tagging and/or Hashtags to keep track of your DNA (I use Hashtags). Legacy's main purpose is not DNA tracking. For that you need to use the Chromosome browsers that are built into 23andMe and FTDNA (two of the companies that offer chromosome browsers). Ancestry.com, MyHeritage and LivingDNA do not have chromosome browsers so it is a bit harder there. You can also use the free program Genome Mate Pro https://genomemate.org/ which is an advanced chromosome browser and you can also upload your raw data to the GEDmatch website https://www.gedmatch.com Michele Simmons Lewis, CG Legacy Family Tree mich...@legacyfamilytree.com <mailto:mich...@legacyfamilytree.com> www.legacyfamilytree.com <http://www.legacyfamilytree.com/> Certified Genealogist is a registered trademark and the designation CG is a service mark of the Board for Certification of Genealogists®, used under license by Board certificants who meet competency standards. From: LegacyUserGroup [mailto:legacyusergroup-boun...@legacyusers.com] On Behalf Of Marli Yoder Sent: Monday, July 10, 2017 12:03 PM To: Legacy Users Group <LegacyUserGroup@legacyusers.com> Subject: [LegacyUG] DNA Tests I have V.9, latest build. Question is how do I add the test results from My Heritage DNA test.? Looked at the list under the DNA symbol, and did not see the one I took. (Manage two other tests from them also). I also did family tree DNA (not finished yet) on my self and two other family members. Will be doing Ancestry as well on some of my family. Am I missing a step? I downloaded the results from My Heritage . Unzipped them.. now what? (Good to know it shows my great-aunt and I really are related :) ) Marli Yoder A & M Farms 2173 LLC Eureka & Sturgeon Missouri
