Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Gedmatch kit#

Ashkenazi Jews and people  with ancestry from the British Isles are the two 
groups that I believe  test the most. I have quite a few matches on 
Gedmatch with Eastern European surnames a few I have verified 

as Ashenazi Jews. There will be more Portuguese matches as more Portuguese 
people test.

Yes, the Jewish genealogists made a HUGE push to get DNA tested hence they
seem to the group with the most matches.  Not unusual at all.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Gedmatch kit#

2015-01-16 Thread nancy jean baptiste
Greetings,
I've been using Gedmatch the last week and have begun to really enjoy the tools 
available for admixture information. I have tiny bits of admixture in my Middle 
Eastern segments that are very intriguing..my primary European H3 admixture 
is also very interestingso much yet to discover and interpret in this learn 
as I go process. 
I've been using my kit# f84748 and my paternal uncle, John Baptiste, kit# 
f184472 to discern differences in my father and mother's DNA admixture. What I 
discovered were many similarities that raised questions.  Then I discovered 
another available tool.to compare my parents. 
In 2009, a year before my mother died, I noticed the Silveira surname used by 
both of my parent's lines on Sao Jorge. My mother's used it in the de Lemos and 
Machado line's from Rosais/Velas and my dad's line had the Silveira Leonardes 
from Topo. I told my mom that my intuition told me they were connected somehow 
and were cousins. 
The Gedmatch tool showed, yes, they are cousins with a shared total segment of 
9.3 and had a common ancestor 6 generations ago. My mom would have enjoyed the 
affirmation via the science tool. Now to follow the trail on paper. I have a 
long way to go.
I wish there were better reference maps built into the site tools for clear 
understanding of exactly what areas geographically define what admixture 
name...ie: Beringian, Hazda, North Europe etc. Some of the tools have maps but 
one big admixture map would be helpful. 
It's easy to upload your FTDNA info and easy to compare with others and 
navigate the site tools.
Now off to the chromosome colored graphs

Is it possible to use gedmatch if you have 172 pages of ftDNA family finder
matches?

Yes, Tish, but your upload may take longer or you may need to try a couple

 I found this really interesting link that you manually type in your 
 Eurogenes K15 Admixture proportions the calculator then uses ancient DNA 
 samples for comparison of your own DNA however for some reason I'm unable 
 to get to step 4 if someone figures it out let me know.

It's very frustrating. I'll try again, and yes Doug, I do have that many
matches. It's all on my father's side. For some reason ftDNA is top heavy
with Ashkenazi Jewish people.
