Hi Debbie,
Glad you joined the conversation but sorry to learn of the Covid diagnosis. Hopefully it¡¯s a light case.
I also normally lurk but decided yesterday to try throwing my questions out to see what happens. I¡¯m sure Elizabeth and the others will soon reach out with some info for you.
Did your Dad do the family finder autosomal testing on FTDNA or just the Big Y? I don¡¯t recall seeing him as a match to Fran. That is what is so interesting to me is that there is autosomal dna shared for Fran and Joseph. Plus there are other autosomal matches with descendants of Joseph¡¯s great grandfather William.
The experts may correct me but I believe upgrading to the 700 is better than individual SNP or STR tests. Plus although the samples last for many years it¡¯s not indefinite. Hopefully someone here will give you guidance on this.
Take care and hope you¡¯re fully recuperated very soon.
Best wishes,
Sue & Fran
