Back in March, I posted a query about my friend who's
a second generation adoptee and as a results, I bought
a 37 marker FTDNA test for him for his birthday. I
got him as part of the FTDNA Adoptee group.

The results have just come back....and he has NO
MATCHES! Not even at the 12 marker level! He has
come back as a plain vanilla Rlb1 Haplogroup. Is this
b/c he's only trying to be matched within the Adoptee
group?

I had been enthusiastically touting this as so very
cool (I had came back with several dozen Allen
matches) and he's going to give me grief forever about
this.

He's on a diving trip in Belize (without me! but
that's another story) I'm about to go put his markers
at Ysearch.org. But isn't it baffling to have NO
MATCHES....even at the 12 marker level? or is this
b/c he was assigned to the Adoptee group?

I have until Wednesday afternoon to scramble and show
him that my magnificent b-day present was really
magnificent.

Any input would be much appreciated! ack!
