The default marker value for DYS449 for the search was 29. Both #1 and #2 were "no match", meaning #1 was not 29 and #2 was not 29. This doesn't mean that #1 and #2 match each other (on DYS449), because one could be 30 and one could be 31. Do you see what I mean? You cannot just find the two tests that you submitted and compare the colors that appear in the table. -- Dennis

    1. Johanna Meyer Block
    2. I am in the process of trying to locate friends and family of my mother Johanna Meyer. She was born in Leverkusen Germany in 1928 and murdered in Miami Florida in 1961. I just put up a website about her explaining her story and photos. If you recognize my mom please email me. Thank you so much. http://www.johanna-meyer.gekaweb.de/

    1. SMGF Y-Chromosome Database
    2. Dennis
    3. If I submit two samples to SMGF's database, how do I use the search at http://www.smgf.org/ychromosome/search.jspx to compare them? It seems I need to know the marker values of one of the samples to get the matches/no matches for the other. True? I'm beginning to think I will have to submit at least one of the two samples to a testing lab that will tell me the results. True? -- Dennis

To help you answer the question people need to see the original image. Without seeing the image I would guess that the "P" is an "S" and the person named is a Supervisor or Superintendent responsible for the house.

Since they don't code for genes, there is no selection pressure on them, so they make better molecular clocks. If they did code for genes, then some mutations would be lost because they were fatal. But with junk DNA all the mutations stick around, because they don't matter, so you can, with an assumed mutation rate, measure when two lines diverged." Now take note in the last line it clearly says Assumed that means it is not exact it is guessed at and has not been proven in any way shape of form. On that bases you may as well pick an entry at random that is listed on the IGI and assume that they are directly relate and that they are assumed to be related with in the last ten generations. Get real. As for what Huntersglenn has to say for FamilyTreeDNA I am glad that some companies have some scruples and do value their client, based on this If I do decide to test the DNA side of my family then I am likely to use FamilyTreeDNA's services based on the experience that Huntersgleen has had. Cheers Big Ears.

Sorry David :) the second part of your post [that I originally replied to] and the closing comment is what I had an issue with :) you have a choice to participate or not ... but this is NOT a scam ... that probablly all I should have said :) Typically when people get into talking about mutation rates ... I sort of skip over them somewhat, as the "assumed" formulas don't always fit every profile, and there are lots of variables that "can" come into play ... just like, what is the length / time frame of a generation ? depends on if your ancestor from each generation was the first born or last born child from the previous generation ... those that came from prolific families, i.e. some one with 10-16+ children over 20-30+ years as apposed to another family unit with 2-4 children within 5-10+ years ... and then those that wait to marry and/ or don't have children until later in life :) I myself, have several cousins of various degrees that are actually in the generation of my dad and/or grandfather that are closer in age to me and/or younger that I ... one to two plus generations skip/added :) To add / clarify what I think Thomas was alluding to :) Gene DNA material, commonly referred to as an "admixture" .... it recombines with each subsequent generation, which can be a process of repairing and/or eliminating damaged segments along the way in each generation / individual ... where as the so called "junk" DNA the sex-chromosome is passed on as is, with only "slight" modification every now and then, basically an antique relic from the past :) The "every now and then" mutation rate ... can and "does" very from one family line/unit to the next ... some more frequently than others :) using FTDNA's tip report ... I have a 1st cousin 3x removed in my hdpth-DNA project, he is 2 generations down from our [MRCA] most recent common ancestor, where as I am 5-generations down :) comparing our test results from 37-markers, we are an exact match ... the Tip report show a probability of a MRCA at 59.37% within 2- generations and 89.48% within 5-generations ... with another participant in my hdpth-DNA ... we know we don't share a MRCA within 10-generations "/ he and I have one mutation on a marker in the 3rd panel, and the rest of the 66 markers we match exactly :) the FTDNA tip report shows the probability of a MRCA at 97.76% within 10-generations :) in our documented paper trails, we are both stuck in VA around the mid 1750's so far ... oh and we both have a variant spelling of our surname, his line has the extra E in the middle :) just one of the goal of our project, to prove that the variant spelling are in fact related and "not" to discard them :) Yes Cathy's experience shows just one of the finer exceptions that FTDNA has shown, as apposed to those that appear to just be in this business to turn over a bigger profit, with a smaller product line, and little support :) Ken - hdpth-DNA .

Please list the name, County, State, E.D. and page for the person you want us to tell you about. It is just possible that you may have miss read the census takers handwriting.
