Jim, Hi, just be playing with R1b spreadsheet. Better than Sudoku by mile.

I noticed that
Leonard, against these guys is gd of

Campbell 13
Stroup 11
Leister 14
McGee 9
Ferguson 13
Damman 10
Clarkson 10

They are also a very long way from Kenny Haynes and Costanza,
and except for Leister a fair way from Turner (yourself I presume?)
Their average gd seems to be in the main mob rather than the extremes,
though their max gd seem high 38 to 45

So these guys are maybe related though certainly not recently.

It is very few isn't it? So a lot of the men in Atlantic Europe although
related last had a common ancestor before CE.

Btw mcClellan not Mclellan in spreadsheet and match to other Elders is gd 24
and other gd 18.

Pat, No more than 1 mismatch per 10 markers seems to be a
reasonable rule of thumb for recent common ancestry, although
there will no doubt be exceptions to the rule.

I have a 64/67 match named Welfare on my FTDNA page who
unfortunately has not joined the R1b project or uploaded his
results to Ysearch. As far as I can tell, Welfare and I do not
have recent common ancestry.

In Kerchner's R1b project there is a group of three men,
Yurasits (57982), Jurasits (57983), and Stevens (57985) who
match each other 67/67 or 66/67. Their kit numbers are very
close together, so they were ordered at about the same time, and
I suspect that these men were trying to verify a suspected close
connection.
