Cheri, Thank you so much! By the way, I had an email from John Raposa a few years ago and my family is in his tree, he gave me lots of family info - is there anyone else out there in the same tree? Thanks again, Ellen On Tuesday, April 23, 2013 3:07:36 PM UTC-5, Cheri Mello wrote: Ellen Ade

Ellen, When people match with Family Finder (usually within the last 200 years from the testee's birth) their name and email will show up in your Match section. John has done DNA testing, but not the Family Finder. If he does Family Finder and you do Family Finder and your families connect

Nell, Depends on your goal. If you want to focus on one line only and have access to a male relative from that line, then you would want a Y-DNA test. If you want to focus on your mother's mother's mother's line (all women - that one line only), you'd want an mtDNA test (which yields more
