I did an autosomal transfer from Ancestry, then went ahead and did the mtDNA as well as the Y-700. Is there any real reason to spend another $29 on top of the hundreds I've already spent at FTDNA?

​

I've also tried to downloaded the data but it was the same as before.

I've made the autosomal transfer + unlock from MyHeritage (valid format, checked with customer support) more than a month ago and no news. I've contacted customer support and they told me they are having some issues with the processing. Does anyone made an autosomal transfer recently from MyHeritage? Thank you

I am interested in seeing the uniparental (Y-DNA and MtDNA) of Palestinians from Hebron- specifically someone from Al-Makhamra clan of Hebron if possible. I have read that the family traces their ancestry to an ancestor named Mukheimar who was a Jew expelled from Khaybar in Arabia. I am very curious if the uniparental results would align more with Arabian or Jewish ancestral clades.

If you are not comfortable disclosing your membership to this clan, please feel free to DM me privately.

Hello guys, been on these platforms on and off for about a decade. I recently rechecked my autosomal results after a few year hiatus and I'm confused as my heck and am hoping someone who stayed educated about what's going on with these companies and how they choose to report their results can enlighten me.

This is related to a few specific genetics: Spain, portugal, native american, central American, and Ashkenazi jewish. These ethnicities have shown up on and off update after update after update. The native american has also been split with things like inuit. However it seems currently both services kicked me off all my three trains. I'll add to his my with the be fact that my profile is dominantly African because Ancestry likes to hide true autosomal my results in order to give a specialized my proprietary answer based on my what they my think your your genetic is and not what the test is actually showing. Has FTDNA resorted to doing this too?

Also FTDNA completely scrapped analyzing my European ancestry and the result just says "European." Finally yes I do have confirmed native american heritage.

I’m doing a Y-37 test to prove that my great-great grandfather, b. in 1873 & d. in 1938 (also my Y-DNA ancestor, in my male line) was my proven ancestor.

I did not order the Family Finder feature.

Records for my g-g-gf are rare, due to lack of records (the only verifiable records, connecting his paternity to my line, are baptismal records listing him as the father of all 3 children, which only list his first name and one of his double-surnames), his sons’ surname changes due to illegitimacy & due to illegitimate descendants being the only descendants he has (who he never publicly acknowledged).

So, I entered his surname in FTDNA’s Surname section, as well as a few others (since it said enter surnames from both sides). My great-great grandfather has a distinct surname and will stick out like a sore thumb.

After taking the Y-37 test, what other tests should I take next?

I transferred my dna for 23&me a year or so ago. With the new update coming out will i have to take a new test or will mine just automatically update?

Hey everyone!

I uploaded my raw DNA to FTDNA on June 15 and paid the $19 transfer fee. They said it should take up to 5 business days, so I definitely wasn’t expecting to still be waiting almost two months later

I’ve contacted support a few times already. At first they told me it would be done in a couple of days, then I was told there were some system changes going on. Still nothing.

My order is just sitting there, and the Batch Number is showing as 0.

Has anyone transferred raw DNA to FTDNA recently? How long did it actually take for you? Is this kind of delay normal right now, or did my order somehow get stuck?

Just trying to figure out whether I should keep waiting or push support harder. Thanks!

Hello

I have Y-DNA march on Y-37 level with 4 genetic distance.

When could we have the common male ancestor?

The match got NPE in late XIX century so surname is after mother of his x-greatgrandfather.

What is important the mother of his x-greatgrandfather few years later had married some man and got few children with him. So I think it could be a father of illegitimate match's x-greatgrandfather.

Any info on when existing users will be able to upgrade? No news since March.
