I don't recall anymore that that, but it was pointed out the odds of such happening, and it is within quite a bit less than the present population. Did anyone else see this article? This just could be the true in this case, or as someone said, a bad read in the lab. My surname is Anderson. I have never had a perfect match with an Anderson. One marker off of one. But, I have over a hundred matches with folks that don't have the Anderson surname. The commerical companies explains it by saying that we all go back to male before surnames were used. Then, they encouraged me to do the more expensive tests; in fact, quite expensive tests in my opionion, to narrow things down. Nah, don't think so.
