That was over a year ago and my results still do not show up in the Sorenson Y-DNA database; either by a surname search or via a match with my known DNA results from FTDNA. Can you tell me if Sorenson is behind in updating the Y-DNA database or could there be some other reason that I can't find my results? It was the male surname line that I submitted with my swab and my great grandfather was born in the 1830's, so I should be able to find something. BTW, I know it requires considerable care when comparing markers from different labs. For example, FTDNA reports DYS389-I whereas Sorenson reports DYS389B. I tried to be very careful about this when searching for my results in the Sorenson database. Any idea why my results aren't there? Mardon <[email protected]>
