RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] DNA "Basics" question

[M. Stringer]

Hi Cheri,



Thanks for your patient help.  I think you’ve supported the FTDNA
suggestion: Y-DNA 37 is a reasonable place to start for males, coupled with
Family Finder.  Then, as you explained, people can go back and purchase
upgrades as needed/wanted over time - especially when on sale : ).



I did spend more time going through FamilyFinder matches, and found 11
pertinent surname matches leading to the sought after ancestor.  So, in
this instance, probably a lack of direct males testing via Y-DNA.



FYI, suspect a website glitch:  when searching from the main FamilyFinder
Results page, just 2 surname matches were found.  The other matches were
revealed when searching trees attached to individuals within the master
list. (I had saved emails re prior searches and was able to ‘re-find’ the
additional ‘hits’ – this time making a master list of them.)

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] DNA "Basics" question

[Cheri Mello]

Marsha,

No, not a basic question. And getting really off topic.

Going from 37 to 67 (or higher) should show how much closer in time 2
matches may be.
Example: 2 men match 35 out of 37 markers. At 67 markers, they match 63 out
of 67. At 111, they match 105 out of 111. The two men would share the same
surname and be from the same family.

The Genetic Distance (GD) was 2 at 37 markers (37 markers - 35 matches =
2), a GD of 4 at 67 and a GD of 6 at 111. In the earlier stages of a
Surname Project the project admin keeps track of this and starts to build
family groups. It will tell how far back the mutation happened. The Admin
looks at which markers mutated, if they were fast or slow moving markers,
mutation rates, micro-alleles, etc. (Admins learn this as we go along).

I cannot see the Stringer page you are speaking about, but if he has no 12,
25, or 37 marker matches with the surname Stringer, he's not going to get
any at 67 either. Either his Stringer family has not tested or this would
be the case of an NPE (Non-Paternal Event, but I prefer to call it Not the
Parent Expected).

RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] DNA "Basics" question

[M. Stringer]

Cheri,



I ‘think’ my question is re what going from YDNA 37 to 67, etc reveals; how
it helps/works re distant ancestry.  I ‘think’ from our limited
explorations, that I’d recommend both YDNA and FamilyFinder for males.



The example is my husband, so not Azores; hopefully on-topic within the
‘Basics’ category.



He’s taken the FamilyFinder and YDNA 37 tests.  The ‘37’ level was
suggested by FTDNA in a phone call at the time of the order.

The particular quest for him is a STRINGER male, b abt 1698 (5xG gfa; abt
250 yrs earlier).  This in seeking definition amongst 3 known lines in the
same area, same approximate times (other 2 lines documented earlier 1600s;
no paper trail to connect any of the three [although many online trees have
copy/pasted some incorrectly together]).

We considered an upgrade to 67 (also inquired about yet higher), but again,
the folks at FTDNA indicated increasing the markers would not help re
searching that far back.  (At least, that’s what I thought they said.)



YDNA Matches:

Not one (37- or 25- or 12-marker level) includes the family name; if names
and/or earliest ancestor included in match name lists or trees, more recent
than our information.



Family Finder:

Trolling through associated trees of others did show some potential matches
– and some of those ‘match’ trees include ancestors of the other two lines
we’re searching.  (Yes wrote; no responses)

Maria Elena,

There is no kit in the Azores DNA project under your email address. So I
can't answer your question with 100% certainity without seeing the tree
attached to the kit and which test(s) were done.

Once FTDNA runs a test (any test), they store the vials for at least 25
years. No, the results from one test can't be used for another, but the
vials can be pulled and a different type of DNA test run from those vials.

If your husband's father's father's father's father was Sebastiao Jacome de
Resendes (The top of his pedigree chart), then log into your husband's DNA
page, look for the blue UPGRADE button towards the upper right corner,
click it, and look for YDNA 37 or 67. You can do 111 if it's in your
budget. The Y37 or Y67 will get you into a genealogical time frame. You
could always order less markers and add on more later.

[Cheri Mello]

Maria Elena,

Yes, check out the bundle prices here: goo.gl/V0dHk3

Find the one that fits your budget.

If you need to skimp, then order a lesser marker YDNA test if you are doing
a bundle. You can upgrade to more markers later. FTDNA most likely will
have their Holiday Sale at the end of the year.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] DNA "Basics" question

[Maria Lima]

Cheri,

No test has been done yet for my husband.Can you give me the website?  

Should I order the ftdna family finder and Y test the first time?   Once I get 
the link, I'll see how much it is to do the Y test.  Thanks.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] DNA "Basics" question

[Tish M]

Maria,
I think the question you are asking is: If I get Family Finder DNA testing
with ftDNA, do they use the same DNA you gave them in the first place to do
Y testing? If that is your question, the answer is yes. If you are talking
monetarily, each test price is separate unless they bundle certain tests to
get more people to participate.
I see you are interested in your husband's patrilineal line. If that is
your only interest Y testing would be the course to take.
When most of us talk about finding "cousins" it gets very complicated. We
are not just talking about finding straight patrilineal lines or straight
matrilineal lines. We are including the marriages, too. We have one mother
and father, two grandmothers and grandfathers, four great grandmothers, and
grandfathers, etc. Our DNA includes "cousins" from all of these people. If
you have an interest in finding out all of your genealogy, I would think
Family Finder would be the test you would find most useful.
I hope this helps,
Tish

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] DNA "Basics" question

[Maria Lima]

Hi Rick, thank you for answering.  Okay, I wasn't specific..All my research 
 is on the line  of my husband, Paul Lima. 

 So as the results of the family finder DNA Cannot be used for "any other" 
information, then if I want the "Y" test does that mean if I want to trace the 
paternal line way way back, do we sign up all over again requesting only the 
"Y" test?   I somehow thought one kept paying more money and they could extract 
more info based on the first DNA test (the autosomal).  But it sounds like we 
take another (the Y) test separate from the family finder test. (?)

Thanks for being patient with my question.

RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] DNA "Basics" question

[Richard Francis Pimentel]

Yes Maria DNA can be confusing. Only a male can be tested for his Y- DNA woman 
do not carry the Y Chromosome so they cannot be tested. The Family finder test 
sample can be used to test the Y-DNA only if it came from a male. The results 
of the Family finder test cannot be used for any other information.

I hope this helps

Marie Elena,

assuming Cheri is busy! She will answer you as soon as she can!

CHERI,

You recommended to start with the family finder test.  Can the results of the 
FAMILYFINDER   test be used to do a subsequent Y test?  Am trying to decide 
which DNA test to start with, or do we pay for both at the same time (?).

I already know my husband's patrilineal line going back to Sebastiaom Jacome de 
Resendes.  (I've gone back further than five generations on that side.). But 
missing a generation or two to link in to the Mestre Antonio Curvelo line.  I 
don't know if the DNA test will help.  Sorry if this is a dumb question but 
don't know who to ask.

On his mother's line I have not gone back five generations because a maternal 
great grandmother was a "pais incognito" so that was a dead end.

Thank you.





Maria Elena
