WT moves out from that immediate level to a 100-foot view: we look at multiple generations and relationships that should-or might, depending upon the relationship distance-show individuals with whom we could share DNA. First Results: Family Tree DNA When You First Get Your FamilyTreeDNA (FTDNA) Results Objective: Learn what to do with results of autosomal DNA testing with FamilyTreeDNA (FTDNA). And the testing companies and comparison sites, like GEDmatch, can all give us listings of individual matches ranked by amount of in-common DNA, and it's left up to us-even at -to figure out how/where a match might fit into our tree. I found several matches, all candidates for Point B on my triangle. More than 12 million Americans alone have now been. Then, I assign another dot based on which ancestral couple is our. This allows me to set a filter to show only paternal matches or maternal matches, depending on which side of the family I am working on. DNA testing for ancestry is more popular than ever. First, I assign each match to either my paternal line (medium teal dot) or my maternal line (magenta dot). And with this many DNA results online in the various databases, chances are very, very good that you’re going to find hundreds of distant cousins when your results are processed. More than 12 million Americans alone have now been tested. Going beyond Y to confirm a relative with DNA may be done with autosomal DNA matches. So I searched my autosomal DNA matches on AncestryDNA (you can do this at the top of the View All Matches page) for matches with the surname Claunch in their family trees. DNA testing for ancestry is more popular than ever. You may match a whole bunch of unrelated people at 12 markers. But if they tested at 37 or higher, ignore the 12 marker results. First, the retention and maintenance of, or access to, databases of raw DNA information presents both privacy and liability issues for which WikiTree isn't structured. One reason for looking at, say, 12 marker matches is when they have only tested at 12 markers. Unlike the DNA testing companies, WT is "genealogy-primary," meaning that no DNA matching is done here, but DNA test-taker information is integrated to provide hintsbased on the family tree.Įrgo, no DNA comparisons can be done directly. I think an important distinction to make is that WikiTree doesn't store or have access to any autosomal DNA results.
