Hi Chris,
Thank you for all this. Very helpful.
When I was listing the 1/3 step match I was referring to 1/ being the GD for cousin Roy, and /3 being the GD for my brother. Sorry for the confusion. So, let's work with the GD of my brother.?
Your point of the additional STRs that increasing Y67 to Y111 provides became helpful with one match we had. My brother has a GD of 3 with ?Andrew Leatham at Y67 but when I advanced to Y111 results he had a GD of 8. My first inclination was to conclude he could not be related to us and discount him. However, am I correct in thinking that there is something to learn from this match or a reasonable GD STR match? Is there a point where the GD is just too remote ?
I am so glad to have a place to ask these questions. Again, thank you so much. Must?read the book that Peter is reading!!
Cynthia
