After I logged-on to my FTDNA account I noticed yet another 'known

Hi Cheri,
- Do I have to upload my gedcom before the DNA results?
- Is it a gedcom only of the direct lines? Both lines? Of whatever

Hi Eliseu,
While not necessary, it is a good thing to upload your Gedcom now to Family
Tree DNA. I would suggest go back to your 7th or 8th Great grandfather
(about 10 generations). You want not only your male line and female line but
everyone in between.
When your Gedcom is uploaded it
Thank you Rick.
I will do it as you suggested!

In the past I had someone who did this (wanted me to confirm them as a

Paul,
When I get a FF match for one of the kits I manage, I will often mark those
matches with GEDCOMs as distant cousins so that I can use the in common with
search function to try to figure out the relationship. After I have the in

Yes, upload your Gedcom now. ALL of your direct lines going all the way
back (like Rick said, 10 generations is good - since we have
intermarriage). Right now, FTDNA takes your direct line (it will ignore

HI Paul G,
Yes, some people just believe the Suggested Relationship range in the
Family Finder test and assign everyone to that suggestion.
If you want proof, just leave them in your Known Relationship Pending

that. Don't

I have no idea what this PDF is that you mention. Maybe it's a scientific

I'm getting questions about matching. Most of the talk on the list right
now is regarding the Family Finder testing.
Once upon a time, there were only 2 types of DNA testing: Y-DNA and mtDNA.
We talked about these tests from 2000 to about 2010. It was all that was
available back then. Y-DNA
My great grandmother was an exposta. My mother wants to take a blood

Any suggestions on which test to take? Anyone out there related to
Leonor de Jesus or Manuel Ferreira born in the Azores about 1871?
Many Thanks,

HI Linda J,
They don't do blood. They haven't used blood samples in 12? 15? years!
They now use saliva. You scrape the inside of the cheek. It is completely
painless. The scraper looks like a tiny toothbrush or women's makeup
brush, but it's made out of some type of hard cardboard or cotton
Hi Linda.
The best test to take would be the Family Finder. For the best results you
should have your mother take the test.
Be sure to order the test through the Azores DNA Project at Family Tree DNA
