Below are my male to male X matches at 23andMe with cM, SNP counts and relationship degree if known: Hopefully this table will come through in a readable condition. 2.3 297 2c 1r 2.4 304 3 336 3c 3.1 339 4 316 4.3 325 5.1 365 5c 5.4 441 6 448 3c 1r 7.8 900 8.2 671 8.2 785 8.2 785 12.6 1506 13 1334 13 687 13.4 882 13.4 882 13.6 1114 13.9 1124 15.2 1771 30.2 2468 30.4 2462 36.2 2960 48.2 4359 Any suggestions which are real matches? Except for the four where I know how we are related I'm stumped with the others. One is in England, one is in Canada, and one is mainly Polish with a surname that appears in one of my autosomal matches on his mother's side, her ancestry is all Polish and his paternal surnames do not match my ancestors but he is from an area where I had family in the 1600s through the 1700s. There are two brothers in the list and I match them and their mother, but the mother's ancestry is recent German. We do share a surname in her ancestry but it is not one that is in the female X inheritance pattern. My last English immigrant was in the early 1770s and I have no known Polish ancestry but Poland is a high entry in my COA lists. I have at lest two German surnames. Two other people appear on this list twice. We do have surnames in common, but neither one has posted a pedigree. A few of them also share autosomal ancestry with me, but most share only on the X. The first match is a second cousin once removed. His mother does not show as an X match, but I believe that is because of the different standards for a male to female X match at 23andme. Any one else tried this kind of analysis? Happy New Year to all! Steven -- Steven C.

Steven Most of my male-male X-matches are similar in size to yours but my match with my male maternal 1st cousin is very large: 143 cM, 11566SNPs This appears to be from our maternal grandfather's mother born 1861 and reaches back into the mountains of West Virginia. Many of my X-matches list Robinson ancestors He only shares a 21.4cM X-match with his full sister, while I share that segment with her and a 40cM segment.

I can't comment in detail on these matches, although it seems to me that if Polish is showing up strong and is unexpected, chances are there is a Pole in your ancestry (or a collateral relative went to Poland, or something like that). In terms of my own X, or perhaps I should say the X in my tested family members, it is clear that there is strong inheritance from a Scottish ancestor born in 1818. Various of her descendants have tested. That's on my maternal grandfather's side. On my maternal grandmother's, I can't take it farther back than Grandma for certain, although some bits are reasonably certain to be her mother's (more chances of endogamy here). On my paternal grandmother's contribution, again all I can do at this point is say it's Grandma's. The situation isn't helped by the fact that my maternal X is a mix of Scottish and Norwegian while the paternal X is all Norwegian (with bits of old Finnish) and that most of my tested known relatives are also half or more Norwegian. Still, it's exciting to have separated out the Scottish from the 1818 ancestor. I wish I knew which other Scottish contributors put in their bits, as my X should be about 1/4 Scottish and she should account for about half of that.
