Hi Kevin,
I was expecting to be able to add my DNA results to my Legacy program, I was quite disappointed to learn that what I had expected to receive will not happen, this is the reply that I received when I inquired about my DNA results. There are three major types of genealogical DNA tests available: the y-DNA test, the mtDNA test and the autosomal DNA test. Each test produces different information. MyHeritage offers the autosomal DNA test The MyHeritage DNA kit is an autosomal DNA test for genetic genealogy, designed to discover and identify relatives and ancestors, through DNA matches with MyHeritage's genealogical matching database. Humans have 46 chromosomes. The MyHeritage DNA test looks at the first 44 'autosomal' chromosomes, that aren't the X or Y chromosomes determining your gender, identifying linked DNA segments. It analyses the DNA inherited from both your mother and father, four grandparents, eight great-grandparents, and so on - to provide a breakdown of your ethnic percentages and connect you with relatives descended from any of your ancestral lines within approximately the last 6 generations. Both men and women can take the MyHeritage DNA test and the results are not limited to just the direct maternal or paternal lines.

I clicked on the DNA symbol in the "Individual Information" screen but didn't see an entry for MyHeritage DNA service. I find this odd as the email I got from Legacy seemed to be endorsing the MyHeritage DNA kits. Has anyone managed to add their results to Legacy and if so, how? Thank you for any pointers.
