1. Re: [DNA] genetic memory [1]
Not to drone on about it, but linguist Michael Quinion says: "The word Welsh is actually an Old English word meaning foreigner; slave and at first was applied by the Anglo-Saxons to all the native peoples of Britain. As you might guess, the word Welsh is not used by the Welsh: they call their language Cymraeg, their country Cymru and themselves Cymry."

2. Re: [DNA] genetic memory [1]
Coincidentally, my column today in our Oregon and Washington newspapers touches upon this subject. Buried deep in my head is a peach-pit sized primitive brain that this Sundays autumnal equinox will reawaken to a vision of Europes tribal past. There I proudly trudge with smelly pals behind our wobbly oxcart, rapping rowdy verses old as the dirt. Were sweat-burnt and bone-tired, but sore muscles do nothing to subdue cheerful randiness at the prospect of dancing with our women far into the fast-fallin
3. [DNA] POOLE Surname : 'G' Haplogroup Question [1]
Good Morning Susan - My name is Bill Van Hemert, and I assist Peter Christy, the administrator, with membership at FTDNA's Haplogroup 'G' Project. Our Project is for all members of Hap 'G' and attempts to handle all problems and questions related to Hap 'G'. As you may know Nat'l Geo's Genographic Project(NGGP) has it's testing done by FTDNA. NGGP's contract seems to require a confirmed haplogroup designation from FTDNA while FTDNA does a prediction for it's own customers. Allow me to suggest this. W

Argus seems to have the best deals on mtDNA testing. They sequence HVRI-III for about what most charge for HVRI. Click on "More information" on this page to view the bases sequenced: http://www.argusbio.com/store/product_info.php?products_id=28 http://www.argusbio.com/ However, if she is contemplating the FGS she would be better off skipping the HVR test. Little of the cost is recovered with FTDNA's "upgrade" discount. Argus' price is actually about the same as FTDNA's discounted price any

Dear "Cosyn" Ken, I do recognize the names you mention because they are my "pawpaws" too. They intermarried so much I might possibly have a Markham line by the paper trail. I still have no proof on the Markham line as of now but as I continue to work on it I will let you know. I have a chart that I made and will have to check the Markham surname. I can't remember right now off the top of my head how it goes because I haven't worked on it for awhile. But, I might have a Markham that int
8. Re: [DNA] question [0.968706]
I am not too intelligent in this matter. My husband and I are both Maxwell's by birth, and we had 25 marker tests done that showed we are not related. A physician cousin is running the Maxwell DNA study. Males are tested. I continually get results back for his and none for mine in the last three years. I have just not had the time to make myself knowledgeable in the subject at all, but reading some of the postings on your site made me wonder if the tests should be done at a higher level. It is to find

Hmmh?? Backwards she has things you say to Beth in your reply to Beth. What are you implying. That Ancestry does genetics science? Does Ancestry do any genetics science research at all? I don't know of any and I am a customer of Ancestry.com for a long time and even ordered a DNA test from them back in 2002. Relative Genetics even used some of my Kerchner surname project members for in-house calibration references since I was one of the few people tested by multiple labs early on. When I called Ancest
12. Re: [DNA] 37 marker mismatches that aren't?, older fathers, and mutation events [0.968706]
KIrsten I generally look at the number of matches first and then consider GDs greater than 1 separately. If the two match closely, the multistep mutation was probably a single event. This occurs frequently on multicopy markers because of recLOHs. Using the number of matches, as SMGF does, is to me the better alternative for a database A 3-step difference on otherwise fairly closely related people is unusual enough that I would have FTDNA take another look at the electropherogram, as Richard sug

As far as H arising in the Near East, U. Roostalu in the paper "Origin and expansion of Haplogroup H, the dominant human mitochondrial DNA lineage in West Eurasia: the near Eastern and Caucasian perspective" Nov, 2006 proposed that the original Helena was from the Near East. This is in contrast to what Bryan Sykes originally proposed, that Helena was from the north east Pyrenean foothills in France about 20,000 years ago. This is my opinion on the subject, and you can tell me if I am mistaken. 20,000 y

15. Re: [DNA] Question about an 11/12 Match for R1b [0.968706]
I think Americans are more interested in this subject than others. And those of us with European origins (or elsewhere) are eager to get their DNA so we can make the link across the ocean - on the other hand, the people on the other side of the ocean have no particular interest in finding out they link to us. Georgia Kinney Bopp ************************* Thank you for the link, Georgia, and I think you are right. Americans do have much keener interest in connecting with Europe than Europe has

On the same day of this conference, Bennett Greenspan will be in a conference hosted by the St. Louis Genealogical Society, unfortunately he is not paired with the scholars of the stature of Charles Kerchner, et. al. This is a real step forward for our local society, so I'm not being critical. I just wish I could go the the conference in PA, however. Thanks for posting this information. Thanks for all you do.

17. Re: [DNA] Cooperation between projects at different testing companies [0.968706]
FTDNA has some good guidelines. This is for 37 markers. Change the 37 to 12, 25, or 64 to go to the others. http://www.familytreedna.com/GDRules_37.html Comparing living to living is always difficult. It is best to determine the ancestral haplotype and then compare each to it: http://genforum.genealogy.com/dna/messages/1405.html You could have two people who were 34/37 matches to the ancestral, which is a good match. Yet, they could be 31/37 to each other. There is a lot of leeway i
18. [DNA] Removal of Postings at DNA - Forums [0.968706]
List: Recall the lengthy and animated discussions about Rootsweb staff removing postings relating to DNA from surname boards. Well, apparently this practice occurs elsewhere also. A few days ago a poster at www.dna-forums.org began a thread on R1b1c10 in East Anglia - for what reason is not clear since he has nothing to do with either that haplogroup or East Anglia. There were quite a few comments but by far the most came from the person who started the thread. The object appears to have been
19. Re: [DNA] DNA.Ancestry.com Account - Unauthorized! [0.968706]
Jon, I'm not sure I understand the part of your posting about FTDNA. But for the record, Ancestry had on their website an advertisement indicating that FTDNA was on board with them. I am with FTDNA. I received an email from Max Blankfeld, VP, at FTDNA stating FTDNA was not on board with Ancestry and not to give anyone kit numbers or passwords to their account at FTDNA. Afterwards, Ancestry removed the advertisement from their website. Later a different one was put on Ancestry's website for FTDNA
