We must have the same hawk eyes...smile, I notice that too when I tried to read what was on that chart as wel and saw Sierre leone mentioned a few times towards the end. it wasn't a bad presentation, balanced and I guessed I will not get my hopes up I am going to find some kind of miracle. Kind of a sweet story between the woman from Harlem and the farmer from Missouri.

I thought the overall program was fair enough. One company gave a tribe in
Sierra Leone, another gave a tribe in Senegal. While FTDNA gave their usual
computer printout of matches of different degrees which included Sierra
Leone a few times according to my hawk eyes. These areas of West Africa are
rather close, and we should be so lucky geographically with our European
mtDNA matches.
there graphical depictions of the many ancestral lines with pure paternal
and pure maternal on the ends went beyond what most shows do in order to be
explanatory --- but I like graphs.
