BigY - is it worth it?
Cheers, I need advice. Some time ago I did a Yseq test ( R1b-U106 Superclade Panel ) and got the final haplogroup FGC18842-S21728- BY5719 which I see, is the same as BY5716. I also did a Y-37 Ftdna

Re: Information Regarding FT209276
Thank you, Iain! Very much appreciated and very helpful! My family are the Sinclairs from Orkney, related to the Rosslyn Chapel and the Balfours.

Re: Information Regarding FT209276
There are two places you can find out information about what Family Tree DNA holds about a haplogroup. These are the public haplotree and their Discover project:

Re: FamilyTreeDNA provides Y-DNA haplogroups from Family Finder autosomal tests
Hi Ray, all, The question of the reliability of SNP test results is certainly a crucial point, especially since these tests constitute more than half of R-U106+ tests in the FTDNA's database. FTDNA

Re: FamilyTreeDNA provides Y-DNA haplogroups from Family Finder autosomal tests
I would like to second what Raymond said. When I imported my Genographic 2.0 results into FTDNA (in 2016), my Y-SNP tree was littered with false positives outside of my branch. I also suspect that

Re: FamilyTreeDNA provides Y-DNA haplogroups from Family Finder autosomal tests
The chip-based testing all autosomal tests rely upon is not perfect. False positives and false negatives are known to occur within these tests. I don't remember off-hand how high this error rate is,

Re: TRYON surname group at FTDNA advice/coordination with U106 #BigY
Thanks Iain. I have linked them all to my FTDNA tree, as painful as that tree is to work with. I'll see what I can do about getting them to upload VCF files but many of them haven't even given me

Re: TRYON surname group at FTDNA advice/coordination with U106 #BigY
Hi Mike, Thank you very much for the summary. It's good to hear to hear about the times when people are successful - these case studies both give ideas to others, and help those of us working at

Ancient Connection additions
New Ancient Connections have been added to FTdna's Discover tab. For my father's line it is at R-Y7378: Vor Frue Kirkeg?rd 454 1536 - 1806 CE Shared Ancestor 1050 BCE You and Vor Frue Kirkeg?rd 454

Re: Family Finder tests entering the Y-DNA haplotree
Thanks Ewenn. This has been really useful. One of my Tryon BigY project members recently did the 23 and me test and was assigned R-FGC14877 so it looks like they may be using the same chip as FTDNA.

Re: Family Finder tests entering the Y-DNA haplotree
Hi all, Thanks to the spreadsheet shared by Vince (whom I thank very much for this) on another topic, I was able to search for the Y-SNPs, and the corresponding haplogroups, downstream of R-U106,

Re: FamilyTreeDNA provides Y-DNA haplogroups from Family Finder autosomal tests
According to the same principle as the example above, we could even imagine the hypothesis where an FF test would match one of a tester's PVs, provided that the position of this PV is covered by the

Re: FamilyTreeDNA provides Y-DNA haplogroups from Family Finder autosomal tests
Thanks again Vince for sharing this, you allowed me to solve a mystery concerning the appearance of FF / Y-SNPs testers in a haplogroup: In fact, it is the SNP FGC57405 (not listed in this file,

Re: FamilyTreeDNA provides Y-DNA haplogroups from Family Finder autosomal tests
The spreadsheet contains all 10,577 rows of the raw data that FTDNA is providing, which are the same across all haplogroups. ?Several positions are listed multiple times, which is why the number of

Re: FamilyTreeDNA provides Y-DNA haplogroups from Family Finder autosomal tests
Thank you Vince for sharing this. I suppose even more than that because certain haplogroups downstream of R-U106 on which new FF / Y-SNPs testers have been added, have no equivalent SNP appearing in

There appear to be about 9,000 unique Y-SNPs on the current FTDNA chip. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1nyycup1kcfpi2D0iZZJhaJlvPIexDELeXdfRnxkS6JQ/edit?usp=sharing Vince
