Excited to use the new „GlobeTrekker“ on my BigY test. Very interesting revelation about the migration path on a map. Cannot wait to read about the science behind it in the next blog article: https://blog.familytreedna.com/globetrekker-discover-report/ #ydna #Genealogy

#familytreedna is nailing it this year for me! After the addition of the #yDNA Discovery tool and the new Globetrekker, yesterday, they also announced something for their autosomal DNA customers: a yDNA-haplogroup in the Metal Age https://blog.familytreedna.com/y-dna-haplogroups-family-finder/

“Recent advances in long-read sequencing technologies have allowed the generation and curation of more complete genome assemblies, enabling the analysis of traditionally neglected chromosomes, such as the human Y chromosome (chrY).”#isogg #dna #geneadons #epigenetics #YDNA

@sven I did not started any #YDNA testing, since my direct #Geisinger Ancestor is my mother and my Grandfather and his brothers already passed away. May be I will grow an interest in it when all the existing sources are gathered.

@sidaba 160 lines? Wow, that’s quite a sizeable study. I was thinking #YDNA would potentially help to connect and differentiate between the lines. But finding testers is never easy…

Once read a 23&Me blog post citing a steep decline in the % of people identifying as African American when they had <28% African ancestry.

This was the case for my direct paternal great grandfather as well who would have been around this % and self-identified as white.

His WWII draft card had Race initially marked as "Negro", crossed out in red pen, and updated to "White"

Nothing like waking up on a lazy Sunday to find that #FTDNA has assigned me a new #YDNA haplogroup! Not totally unexpected, tho.. So, greets from R-FT12654!!

Yesterday I was introduced to a site called My True Ancestry, I suggest checking it out. If you'd like to know a few of my results, check out my latest blog post! Link in bio, here is the link for the site https://mytrueancestry.com

Y111 match with an Irishman. mean for a common ancestor is 1650. My male line is believed to come out of Wurrtemburg circa 1750s to Pennsylvania. Thirty Years War effect? Can only speculate..

Since 2010, the Owston/Ouston #DNA project has enlisted 73 participants from six countries and has reached six conclusions using #autosomal, Y-DNA, and #mtDNA. #YDNA https://wp.me/p2RXDa-ps

This being Christmas, I thought I'd talk a little bit about our peculiar YDNA haplogroup. Ours is rare, and it took a Big Y test to ferret it out. My family is on Alex Williamson's Big Tree here:

Some time after we were added to the tree, a close cousin was introduced, the Merediths. But Meredith is a Welsh name. Calculators suggest we have a common ancestor, perhaps around the 1500s. #genealogy #ydna #ancestry

Vincent Van Gogh Y-DNA.
A child born to one Vincent’s models was rumored to have been his illegitimate son. Here is an interesting story about how Y-DNA was used to investigate this mystery/rumor.

In my second in my series on a multidisciplinary approach, I tackle the question, "Can a person not sharing a Y-DNA haplogroup (or mtDNA for that matter) be a match to that lineage?" #DNA #YDNA #genealogy

Could someone who knows more about ancient DNA help with this question?

Ancient DNA sample Inchagreenoge 134 has been tested to be haplogroup R-S1026. Would there be any way to test this to the level of the FTDNA Y-700 test to find a more modern haplogroup?

Not all scientific findings are accomplished by professionals. This is what dedicated individuals can do.

I can only afford a Y 37 test from Family DNA right now. Any testers on here? Feedback welcome! #ydna #dnatest #dnatesting
