clever clogs robot changed autosomal to autumnal. Thought you were being poetic for a minute, which would have been refreshing on this forum.

Hello,
I haven¡¯t been around in awhile. But I did want to let the group know that I have documented evidence and genealogy that proves my two paternal family names Monsees and Stejles (Stelges, Stellges and Stelljes) come from the Hanover district in Germany. They immigrated to the US in the 1800s to New York, Missouri and Maryland. They are still localized in those places.I have numerous Autumnal matches from many family members from eight generations back to the present. Lain or someone in the group can you update me on my new haplo group as far as origin and the current TMRC..

Thank you

I suggest we wait until David Vance gets his feet under his new desk at FTDNA, and also until the 2nd edition of this book gets published, which should not be that far away into 2025, so I am told.

As I posted initially whether the computer programming at FTDNA can be modified to accommodate this desire will be the practical limitation of turning such ideas into reality. But it will be a theme we will
return to as this whole area moves forwards.

That's an interesting point Joe - we have the Graves family association data as well which can push their DNA connections to a specific genealogy. While I don't have all of the paperwork since we're the second generation of the project,
we certainly have well established paper genealogies AND the projects related to the DNA lines. Ross and I often know much more about their genealogies than the individuals submitting to our project do, and can group them accordingly.?
Iain, if that data from the Graves family association project?would be useful to you, please let me know. After January 2025 though please - I'm super busy this time of year due to my annual work conference.?

After reading? the many comments to my post, I am inclined to agree with Brian that project administrators should be able to interpret a matching group's Y-DNA results and assign the common ancestor 's location. I can do this with my own
results since I administer the Fox Project. I am 100% sure of the Wiltshire location and 95% sure he was Henrie Fox born about 1550 in Devizes, Wiltshire. There are other Foxes matching me with a much earlier ancestor but I don't yet know the location except
that it was in England.? This is what project administrators are doing all the time with their matching groups but we don't interfere with an individual's own EKA assignment.? I think that Iain should be interested in these group location assignments but don't
see how to convey the information properly.
