Pete J, You want Family Finder. That's the same product that Ancestry sells. FTDNA's Family Finder tests about twice the amount of family markers that Ancestry does, however. (Ancestry replaced about half of their markers with health markers so they can sell your DNA to Calico Life Sciences. Read

In regards to shipping out a new kit, they always pull the vials and work from that first. If both vials fail, they will mail out a new kit so the testee can swab. You didn't say the person was deceased, so I'm assuming this will work. Cheri Cheri Mello Listowner, Azores-Gen Researching: São

I'm interested in doing both lines. Both of my parents are deceased. Do I understand correctly that the testee should be the oldest person you can find? For example, on my mother's side I could do her sister who is 89 yrs. old and on my father's side I could do my brother who is 70 yrs. old?
