    A VERY well done presentation, Sir ! For a living, I gave presentations on technical material for 30 years, so I can tell you from experience that you do veyr well in your own presentations. Anxious to see your other videos.

    Fascinating. It can figure out whether a match comes from my father's or mother's side? That is quite something. I bought one today.

    • @FamilyHistoryFanatics
      @FamilyHistoryFanatics  4 года назад +1

      Yep, you have to identify some relatives on each side, but then it can identify others for you.

    Thank You for your Videos!! I have just gotten my Y test back and I am totally stumped! I first did my Ancestry DNA which pointed towards an NPE a few generations back (yet recent enough that I knew one involved)... I had several close unknown matches..yet none on a line that I had researched for 30 years. All of these unknown matches were related to each other. This and other info supported the NPE event theory.
    Now my dilemma. Today I got back my Y DNA results hoping to prove or disprove the NPE theory. Yet none of the Y matches seemed to match the NPE surname, although of the 15 Y matches.. there were 3 different surnames that showed up more than once. Of these, two were at the 1 Genetic Distance rating.
    I am really stumped by the results of the Y DNA!! Any thoughts or Ideas would be greatly appreciated.
    These tests have called into question 30 years of research!

    • @FamilyHistoryFanatics
      @FamilyHistoryFanatics  3 года назад +4

      What you may have is a series of NPE events within a group of people. The actual surname, may or may not be one of the ones in your list.

    Enjoyed the video-very informative! Question: How do I capture the segment data from a DNA match in FamilyTreeDNA to copy to my DNA Painter chromosome map? Thanks!!

    • @FamilyHistoryFanatics
      @FamilyHistoryFanatics  Год назад

      You need to use their chromosome browser and then download the segment data as a csv file.

    Hi, i am coming from Balkan, actually Bosnia and Herzegovina. And i made some research on the net about DNA results that are offered on the market. Some of them are offering very basic infos and your company is offering a lot more. For example, i see people from Balkan and their results at myharitage and that is 80-90% Balkan, rest is North Europe, and that is end of story. I mean that is not satisfaction. And interesting to mention is that Balkan has old genetics, so Europe is having matching with us but people think they had grandma on the North. So i like to see deeper look into it. For our countries i would like to find some affordable solution, because we had war. And still today we have a lot of discussion between people because they think they are different, mostly because of religion belief. Our faces are similar, so i think we have same genetics, religion is brought to us. That information would be crucial if can make some collective testing in former Yugoslavia countries.

    My father's name was changed here in the U.S. , So when I want to see matches and everything, Should I enter his Actual name or the name that he wound up with?

  • @jamesdorsey7385

    Great video. I have the same Y-67 haplotype as you. Does that mean we are related?

  • @ritakeyes9665
    @ritakeyes9665 2 года назад +2

    I had my father’s Y-DNA tested and at the 67 marker test he has a genetic distance of 1 with one person. We have a brick wall for the my 2nd ggfather of my male line. The person my father’s 66 of 67 markers match is a family whose farm was very near my 3rd ggmother (the mother of my unknown 2nd ggfather). My hypothesis is that my 3rd ggfather is from this family line. How do I prove or disprove this hypothesis?

    • @FamilyHistoryFanatics
      @FamilyHistoryFanatics  2 года назад +2

      I talk about Genetic Distance in my latest video. Questions like yours prompted me to make it. Watch that and then let me know on that video if you have a follow-up question. ruclips.net/video/kTAcIJeMjZU/видео.html

    thanks

    • @FamilyHistoryFanatics
      @FamilyHistoryFanatics  2 года назад

      I'm not exactly sure what you're asking. If you're trying to determine how you're related, that involves using triangulation and a variety of other tools. If you're trying to do something more technical, then you'll want to reach out to the FTDNA support staff.

  • @petea1918

    Hi Andy,
    I’ve just received back my FTDNA 111 marker test and have nobody who match with me. However, at 67 markers I have matches but don’t share the name surname as me. One of the matches matched with me who had taken the 111 marker test but now don’t match with me and my 111 marker test...why is this?
    Hope you can answer this question for me.
    Kind regards,
    Peter Whitehead.

    • @FamilyHistoryFanatics
      @FamilyHistoryFanatics  3 года назад +1

      There must have been enough differences in the extra 44 markers to make it so that your match at 67 was not a match at 111

    I am interested in learning if I have Native American Ancestors as my Maternal grandmother claimed to be Native American. What test do I need to take?

    • @FamilyHistoryFanatics
      @FamilyHistoryFanatics  Год назад

      A mtDNA test might show a known native american haplogroup as long as the ancestry continued to follow the matrilineal line.

    Ancestry is said to have the largest database for North America, and My Heritage for Europe and
    Jewish ancestry.

    • @FamilyHistoryFanatics
      @FamilyHistoryFanatics  2 года назад +1

      MyHeritage does have a different market and customer base that Ancestry. However, I would recommend people be in both since it's easy. Test with Ancestry and transfer your DNA to MyHeritage (for less than the cost of a DNA test). Then you can be in both.

    I recently got the results of a Y DNA test which had been requested on behalf of a relation or mine. I have offered to administer the results by linking them to my own FTDNA tree. The email gives the following instructions:
    Login to myFTDNA account
    Click on myFTDNA in top left corner and find Y-DNA menu
    From Y-DNA menu select matches
    WHEN IF DO ALL THAT I JUST GET THROUGH TO ADVERTISEMENTS FOR BUYING MORE TESTS
    Could you possibly help me with this?
    I have also tried to upload the results to GEDMATCH but it asks for a file from my computer??? How do I use the kit number to create a file on my pc???
    Thank you in advance for any assistance....it is a long time since I did my own test so I have forgotten what procedure I used.

    • @FamilyHistoryFanatics
      @FamilyHistoryFanatics  2 года назад

      First... I hope you've reached out to FTDNA support. They're best for specific technical issues.
      For GEDmatch , be sure to download the DNA from FTDNA ruclips.net/video/-Z4vyKuSXa4/видео.html
      Then transfer that file that you downloaded in this fashion ruclips.net/video/XZfF1juyHbI/видео.html

    I can't even figure out "exact match" means. The surnames are those I've never heard of. What is an EXACT MATCH on Y-DNA

    • @FamilyHistoryFanatics
      @FamilyHistoryFanatics  Год назад

      It means that you have no differences between yourself and the match. A genetic distance of 0.

    I have watched hours of HFH videos and there is something that I just don't understand. The tools are kind of fun, colorful, and interesting; but they don't really help me build my own Family Tree. Are people engaged in DNA research primarily interested in identifying their closest "cousins" and grabbing their email addresses? I want help building my Family Tree.

    • @FamilyHistoryFanatics
      @FamilyHistoryFanatics  4 года назад

      DNA is a tool that can be used to help build a family tree. It is rarely useful without traditional genealogical records.

    @karlayork877 4 года назад +1

    Great video, but one comment about the earliest "known" ancestor. I'd take those listed ancestors with a block of salt; a big chunk of those are wrong. Too bad people aren't required (or even allowed) to document how they reached their conclusions.

    • @nickidaisyreddwoodd5837
      @nickidaisyreddwoodd5837 4 года назад

      Our earliest known ancestor is the first self replicating amino acid swimming in the primordial soup of geothermal mineral water about 4 billion years ago.

    How come in Chromosome Painter there are two sides to each chromosome, but in Chromosome Browser there is only one?

    • @FamilyHistoryFanatics
      @FamilyHistoryFanatics  2 года назад

      In Painter, it is showing you both your maternal and paternal chromosomes and the ethnic distribution estimate between them. In Browser, you are comparing yourself to another person and likely you only share DNA on one side of the family, so only need to show 1 chromosome.

    The brother of a GRANDparent is a GRANDuncle, not a great uncle, no such thing. Otherwise, great video..

    • @FamilyHistoryFanatics
      @FamilyHistoryFanatics  Год назад +1

      Actually, that is not grammatically accurate across all English speaking cultures. The words “great” and “grand” are synonymous when you go that far down your family line, so it’s possible to hear “grand-uncle” used as well as "great-uncle."
