Re: Big Y matches not in block tree
Hello Mary We get Big Y matches when there are less than 31 non matching variants. The NM can be public variants on the haplotree, or singleton private variants waiting for matches before being seen

Re: BigY - is it worth it?
The large number of private variants you have is a consequence of you not have a common ancestor who has tested in the past well over a millennium. Looking at the block tree today, it looks like you

Re: BigY - is it worth it?
Thanks for this interesting article, but unfortunately my male line does not have any connections with this area in the last 300 years. I am quite certain that the connection is a Austrian/German one.

Re: Recruiting testers in the UK
Sometimes the only way is to turn up on the doorstep with a DNA Kit in your hand. I have had to take that approach about 2-3 times with individuals I really needed to test. Usually, they can remember

I have a similar problem in Poland. I managed to find a male relative with a common ancestor born around 200 years ago.? I called him (he has a small business, so phone was a public record), emailed

Circa 2016, I undertook a mailshot to several hundred Allen surnames in the Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire area, on behalf of the US-based Allen DNA project, which was offering a project funded Y-DNA

Re: BigY - is it worth it?
No, as emphasized, I am from Croatia. I know my male line all the way back to the 1820s, but then I have hit a brick wall because my 4 times grandmother married a man who then took her last name,

Re: BigY - is it worth it?
What some people forget these days are the basics of Y-DNA testing. Chris Pomery said way back in his 2004 book on Y-DNA testing, when the "state of the art" was 37 STR markers: "Start by testing two

Re: BigY - is it worth it?
What it means is that (judging by Discover) you are the first member of R-BY5715 who is not a member of R-BY5716 to have tested. The majority of R-BY5716 testers claim descent from the British Isles,

Re: Haplogroup creation date uncertainty
Thank for that. Where do you find the ranges for haplogroup formation? I was looking at Discover, but that didn't give a range. I can definitely constrain it tighter than 1416 to 1810. Henry Van

Re: Haplogroup creation date uncertainty
There is a LOT of uncertainty in all dates associated with haplogroups. The rough estimate is the broad observation that the average time between SNP mutations is 83 years. Say if your line has

Haplogroup creation date uncertainty
My haplogroup is R-BY71870. My closest matches, MF and PHVH, are in daughter haplogroup R-BY81828. FTDNA estimates that R-BY71870 was formed in 1650, which is off in my opinion by at least 30 years.
