  • $99 DNA test
By gilbertarguelles | Fri, 2013-07-05 16:00

Joseph I was trying to post to the announce list but this computer is not
cooperating.

I ordered the Comprehensive Genome test and joined the project that was
mentioned on the list.

Would I be able to verify that any connection to you or Gloria through the
test?

Since both my parents are still living (86 & 90 years old) would it be a
clearer picture overall if I tested them too with the $99 tests?

I am trying outlook now to see if it works.

$99 DNA test

Hello Gilbert, in order to know if you, Joseph, and Gloria having autosomal
markers in common they would also have to get a Family Finder test. Even if
they get the test there is no guarantee they are going to show as matches
even if they truly are related to you. Not all markers are passed down from
all of your ancestors. If they do show as matches then they are possibly
related to you. Having other people with some of the ancestors showing up
as matches on the same segment of a specific chromosome will help raise the
likelihood being related through the line that is in common in all of you/

See the following article for an example.

http://dna-explained.com/2013/06/21/triangulation-for-autosomal-dna/

Having your parents test could help prove which side of the family your
matches are related to you. If you, one parent and a third person all have
markers in common in a certain segment of a certain chromosome then it is
that side of the family that you are likely related to the third person.
It's a process of elimination with the help of known relatives and others
with shared trees and all getting the Family Finder test that help show an
extreme likelihood of being related.

Saludos,
Armando
