Sharon how many markers off is your bunch on the 37 & 67 marker tests? My brother is I-205....He has one exact match at 37 a new found cousin I was able help go back further than the 1800's ...we are 1 marker off on 67. Then we have one other 3 off on the 37, and 4 others 4 off on the 37. That's it...I have 6 matches total. Only the new found cousin is a 67 marker match. 5 of us have upgraded to 67 markers. I guess I always thought why upgrade when I know I'll be all by myself??? Maybe someone can help me understand...would it be a help for the greater good of I1 or something?

I have been involved in recruiting several related people who are MS253-AS4--most of them have done 67 markers, but none have gone for 111. The results confirmed for us the relationship between 3 lines that we couldn't connect using genealogical/historical records. These are families that are Welsh in origin, but whose documentation is limited to Ireland--one of the lines documented in Ireland back to the 1600s--the other two to the 1700s and 1800s. Would you advise getting some of them to get the extended results? I note that the AS4 group hasn't been getting much attention in the discussion lately.
