    3. Janean Even if we all understood everything about the DNA, we still have to contact our Matches; share ancestry info; and determine the Common Ancestor(s)! It's really that simple! The DNA includes detailed information from your ancestors, but it doesn't know any names, dates, places, generations, etc. only the genealogist can put a "face", so to speak, on the story the DNA has. Whether we understand it or not, the testing companies have designed the tests so the Matches are our cousins, and we can contact them. That leads directly to the next step in all DNA testing - contacting our Matches and putting a "face" on our Common Ancestors. Jim - Sent from my iPhone - FaceTime!

I'ts' different than the Y or mt DNA tests You can take the Family Finder test. It relies on the DNA you got from your 2 parents, which they got from their parents with they got from you 8 great grandparents, etc, etc. The Family Finder samples over 95 percent of your DNA (just not the Y, X, or mt). It's very good back 5 or 6 generations, and it also works, sometimes, back to 10-11 generations. I've found four 10th cousins with this test. the genders flip flop from female to male and back again many times from me back to those Common Ancestor. We can guarantee a link back to a particular ancestor or a particular cousin, but we can guarantee that you will get matches from your Colonial America ancestors.

We have 23 PAIRS of chromosomes, including the pair that either have two X chromosomes for girls or an XY pair for boys. In addition to DNA in chromosomes, the powerhouses of the cell, the mitochondria, also have DNA. All body cells have 23 PAIRS of chromosomes. The 23rd pair has XX pair for a female and XY pair for a male. A sperm or egg, has only 23 SINGLE chromosomes, unlike the body cells. Each sperm wil have only either the X chromosome, producing a daughter or a Y-chromosome, producing a son. Each egg has only an X chromosome which is passed on to both sons and daughters. The resulting daughter from fertilization by a sperm with the X-chromosome gets an X chromosome from her mother and an X chromosome from her father. A sperm that has the Y-chromosome passes it along to a son who then has a Y chromosome from his father and a X-chromosome from his mother. y-DNA -Only boys have y-DNA that came from the Y-chromosome from their father and will pass on that y-dna on the Y-chromosome that produces a son. Since surnames follow male children this is very useful in genealogy. Mitochondrial DNA is present, not in the chromosomes but in the powerhouses of the cell, the mitochondria. The female passes on this mitochondrial DNA in the egg to all of her children, whether boys or girls. But, this mitochondrial DNA is NOT present in the genetic material in the sperm that is passed on to the children of this boy. It is only the girls who have eggs who will pass on the mitochondrial DNA to the next generation. So, the link would be from mother to daughter to daughter to daughter, etc. The autosomal DNA includes all of our DNA that we inherit from both parents and will be passed on to all of our children in unique mixtures. Keep in mind that the selection of DNA is random and not cummulative. We have no more DNA than any of our ancestors, just a different mixture. Common fragments and differences when analyzed can indicate common ancestry and lineage.

    1. [VA-NORTHERN-NECK] NN Ancestors List - DRAFT
    2. Jim Bartlett
    3. Ok - I've compiled all the NN Patriarches into one alpha list, and put them all in the same format. The idea is to have an easy to scan list, and to recognize your own Ancestor is he/she is on this list. The list is not intended to convey all the info about this ancestor, or even be 100% correct - just recognizable. However, I will make corrections. This list is only for folks who are in the NN DNA Group. If you are not a member of that Group, you are encouraged and welcome to contact the individuals and/or to contribute information about the Ancestors and/or post names and documentation in the NN Tree. If you joined the NN DNA Group, and don't see your ancestors on this list, please post them here or email me (sorry if I've missed any lists over the past few days). The format should be very clear from the list below - it will save me a lot of time if you will submit your names in this format. The plan is to add this list to the NN DNA Group public website. We now have 20 participants, with more in the wings. If you haven't given me permission to list your name, email and Kit number, please do that, or tell me explicitly what you don't want to be public. Also, if you have a public Tree, at Ancestry, WorldConnect, or elsewhere, please post or send me a link. Participants are strongly encouraged to upload a GEDcom to their FTDNA account. It really helps your matches find a Common Ancestor.

    3. Janean, That's where the Family Finder test comes in. I'ts' different than the Y or mt DNA tests You can take the Family Finder test. It relies on the DNA you got from your 2 parents, which they got from their parents with they got from you 8 great grandparents, etc, etc. The Family Finder samples over 95 percent of your DNA (just not the Y, X, or mt). It's very good back 5 or 6 generations, and it also works, sometimes, back to 10-11 generations. I've found four 10th cousins with this test. the genders flip flop from female to male and back again many times from me back to those Common Ancestor. We can guarantee a link back to a particular ancestor or a particular cousin, but we can guarantee that you will get matches from your Colonial America ancestors.

    3. Marilyn Per your last paragraph, I think the definition of autosomal DNA is the 22 chromosome pairs from Chr01 to Chr22. The Y, X and mt DNA are not included in this definition and are not included in the Family Finder DNA test. The autosomal DNA (by Family Finder) is over 95 percent of all your DNA and men and women get exactly half their autosomal DNA from each parent. That is each parent provides one set of the Chr01-22 to the new child, and the child then has 22 chromosome pairs, as you noted. This is why this test is equally good for men or women to take. In either case the person who takes the test gets results from all parts of their ancestry. Jim - Sent from my iPhone - FaceTime!

    3. Janean. Right. Unbroken all-male (father to son) and all-female (mother to daughter). No exceptions, though men do have their mother's mtDNA as well. Obviously, women have no Y chromsome, or else they'd be men. The autosomal DNA (atDNA) is a much, much, much larger pool of ALL your DNA and what Jim is doing is finding matching SEGMENTS to others from an UNKNOWN common ancestor.

    3. Thanks Jim I'll trying to get a grip on it. I think I've learned so far that Y is male and mt is female? LOL I'm Adult A.D.D. so these rapid fire emails of everyone spewing DNA jargon is a little overwhelming. I've never looked into it because I have too many females that carried down from my Rawleigh Chinn line and can't begin to count the women I descend from in all the other lines. Interestingly, I have one brother but he would have to test for the last name of Crosnoe through my father's father, because my father's "mother" (Skiles) didn't marry him and retained her maiden name. And Crosnoe I think came from Germany. The only closest thing I could get to Y-DNA in the NN area would be my brother through my mother who then goes from her father BACK BACK BACK with male Meadows. There is only one female break there. But I don't know how all this works anyway. Besides these tests from what I've heard are quite expensive.
