    3. Billie The Sorenson Molecular Genealogy Foundation have now set up a partnership with GeneTree so that SMGF testees can get more out of their results. If you've tested with SMGF you have to pay a small fee to "unlock" your results so that they can be converted to a usable format and added to the GeneTree database: http://www.genetree.com GeneTree continue to sell test kits, though they only have a very restricted range of basic tests and, like Ancestry, no SNP testing is done so haplogroups can only be predicted. Once you've converted your results to GeneTree you can then upload your Y-DNA results to Y-search and other public databases such as Y-base and Ancestry. Your mtDNA results can be uploaded to Mitosearch. It is always worth contacting the relevant project manager at FTDNA too as they should still be able to compare your results with their existing project members and tell you if you have a match. I keep results from other companies on my own spreadsheet. Debbie Kennett
