Thanks. This is about what I thought the results would probably be (from just looking at the number of markers that are different between the two donors). Earl and Thomas probably share a common male Campbell ancestor who lived back in the 1500s or so <just maybe this could be our john campbell's father<BUT UMM IT COULD BE AANY ONE MAYBE BEFORE THE SUR NAME BECAME CAAMPBELL, CCOUSINS I AM SATISFIED TO SETTLE WITH MY 14 GENERATIONS. Some DNA websites might "combine" these donors into a "common family," while others would not. I suspect that some DNA websites consider any two people to be from the same family, whenever one donor is listed in the "matching section" of the other donor by FTDNA....without any regard to what the Tip Report might indicate COUSINS IF THIS MIGHT & MAYBE SO IS THE that tecknowlegey has to offer we are still at the starting gate, THATVWOULD EQUATE TO WE ARE KIN TO SOME ONE????
