Well, as to extending the Y-DNA test to 37 markers, it help you see how well you match other Sellers? who have taken a 37 marker or more test. Many at the Sellers Y-DNA project have taken 12 marker and not 37 marker tests, so it would only help you now as to seeing how closely you match those who have taken more extended tests. And otherwise, it could be considered an investment in the future as to matching people who chose to upgrade later. I think at some point, some people will want to upgrade their tests. Now, I am not quite sure what the cost of an upgrade from 12 to 37 markers is, otherwise, as this appears to be a promotion for people taking a new test and not for an upgrade.

It doesn?t cost much more to do it in 2 steps or even 3 and if one is disappointed somehow, by not matching the line one thought one matched, the expense is less, in just doing a 12 marker test to being with and proceeding from there. -----Oprindelig meddelelse----- Fra: sellers-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:sellers-bounces@rootsweb.com] P? vegne af Jack Sellers Sendt: 25. juni 2009 17:14 Til: edgar sellers; sellers@rootsweb.com Emne: Re: [SELLERS] Y-DNA37+mtDNA for $119 extended to June 30th, 2009 Edgar, Not sure I have a definitive answer but since I upgraded my 12 marker to 37 and then to 67, I matched 4 new "cousins" - two Sellers and two non-Sellers who know they somehow descend from my line of Sellers back in the early 1800's.

I believe it is a good test, esp now at 119 and the 37 markers give you Much more to go on. You are one marker off from Richard Zeller, related to Jacob Zellers from Lancaster?, PA. I see NO paper trail connecting you and he hasn't done the 37 marker test, which he should. If he did and you still match, its very likely you are related and we have to find out how.

It doesn?t cost much more to do it in 2 steps or even 3 and if one is disappointed somehow, by not matching the line one thought one matched, the expense is less, in just doing a 12 marker test to being with and proceeding from there. -----Oprindelig meddelelse----- Fra: sellers-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:sellers-bounces@rootsweb.com] P? vegne af Jack Sellers Sendt: 25. juni 2009 17:14 Til: edgar sellers; sellers@rootsweb.com Emne: Re: [SELLERS] Y-DNA37+mtDNA for $119 extended to June 30th, 2009 Edgar, Not sure I have a definitive answer but since I upgraded my 12 marker to 37 and then to 67, I matched 4 new "cousins" - two Sellers and two non-Sellers who know they somehow descend from my line of Sellers back in the early 1800's. This also opened up new counties in North Carolina that I previously had no reason to investigate. It did prove the relationship between my ancestor and his brother and has opened new opportunities for research in the other matches. Also, from a common sense standpoint, I think of the 12 marker test less as a way of proving you are kin to someone and more of a way to prove you are not. In other words, if you don't match exactly on the 12 marker test, or perhaps off on one marker, I think it is unlikely you will find a common ancestor in the last few hundred years. Only by extending it to further markers will you be able to better prove or disprove the relationship. One of my closest Sellers genealogy researchers was 100% sure of her family's connection to my Gurley Sellers line (Nash Co. NC - 1802) and had done extensive professional research in Nash Co to prove it. But her brother's test came back and we were way off from each other making it very unlikely that we are blood descendents from a common ancestor. She may descend from a female Sellers who carried on the Sellers name as an example but this will be hard to prove. Hope this makes sense and is helpful, Jack Sellers (Gurley Sellers Nash Co. NC to Jefferson Co. AL 1802-1898) ---------- At 10:35 PM 6/24/2009, you wrote: >Marie, can you or anybody else in the group explain to me how the >Y-DNA37+mtDNA will help me in my search for a match to my Y-DNA-12?? >I will appreciate any and all explanations. >Thanks, Edgar Sellers > > > Dear Sellers Group > > > > In the last few days we have received several e-mails from group > > administrators asking us to extend our "Unparalleled 50% Promotional > > Discount" Y-DNA37+mtDNA for $119 (the regular project price is $248 > > - a > > reduction of more than 50%!!), as many people are only now becoming > > aware of the promotion. > > > > We have decided, therefore, to extend it until June 30th, 2009.

I believe it is a good test, esp now at 119 and the 37 markers give you Much more to go on. You are one marker off from Richard Zeller, related to Jacob Zellers from Lancaster?, PA. I see NO paper trail connecting you and he hasn't done the 37 marker test, which he should. If he did and you still match, its very likely you are related and we have to find out how.
