    3. Hi Carolyn, I have a male cousin who I had tested and we could do that. Tell me how! (highlight the data, copy and then paste into YSearch??) Is this all set up there for us?

    3. I'm afraid it's a bit more tedious than copy/paste. First go to www.Ysearch.org and click on the "Create A New User" tab at the top. That gets you to the page which includes instructions. Because all labs don't test all the same markers you can't just copy and paste. You will find a section below the instructions with a blank for the value of each of your markers. There are converson charts for some labs who vary just a bit in counting certain markers. That part is a bit labor intensive if you have tested a large number of markers.   There is a section at the bottom of that page for earliest known ancestor and some location data as well as a place for a contact e-mail and name and some comments. I do not believe there is a section for a full pedigree in Ysearch. FamilyTreeDNA.com members have a section on their personal pages where they can upload ged.coms. But I don't think there is one here.   Carolyn Brown --- On Sat, 12/19/09, M. Kathleen Felsted <mkfelsted@gmail.com> wrote: From: M.

    3. If you were tested at FTDNA, you should join Ysearch there. Log into your FTDNA member page, then look for the "Ysearch.org" link in the lower left, under the "Tools" heading. Then follow the instructions from there. When you do it this way, you have the advantage that the FTDNA server will upload your results to Ysearch for you, not only saving you a lot of tedious data-entry, but ensuring that it's uploaded without errors. If your cousin was not tested at FTDNA, he needs to go to this page: http://www.ysearch.org/ then click the "Create New User" tab and follow the instructions. Diana P.S. Everyone is backquoting a huge volume of prior messages. You only need to backquote the most recent message, and even that not necessarily completely. Think of all the duplicates that are being saved in the list archive, making for duplicate hits on a search, and wasting hard drive space. > -----Original Message----- > From: brown-bounces@rootsweb.com On Behalf Of M.
