    1. [AUTOSOMAL-DNA] Question based on results
    2. Constance Shotts
    3. I have been reading all the discussions and trying to follow the threads, but this is a steep learning curve for me. I have a situation that I think I understand, but I want to see if I am on the right track if you will indulge me. My granddaugther, my daughter and myself have all been tested at 23andMe and have our results. There is an individual who is predicted as a 3rd to 5th cousin with all of us (but not yet proven genealogically). We all match on chromosome 1. The results show this person's matches to the three of us as follows: 29.3 cM (Genetic distance) 3846 (#SNPS) 27.6 cM (Genetic distance) 3580 (#SNPS) 10.6 cM (Genetic distance) 1429 (#SNPS) With the person matching all three generations on the same chromosome, we are sharing a common ancestor and likely on the maternal side for her as well as us. Is that correct?

    3. Hi Constance, Yes, it is a very steep learning curve - just keep reading all that you can. As to your question, why did you reach the conclusion that the match is most likely on both of your maternal lines?
