Batch 155 Created

[GvdM]

Recieves my 37 markers from batch 155 this morning.....

[Stevo]

My cousin's upgrade from 25 to 37 markers was just posted (at 2am Eastern)! Am now waiting for the remainder of his upgrade to 67 markers, which I assume won't arrive for another few weeks, since 67-marker results for batch 147 have only just begun to be posted.

I checked GP, but no results for my grandfather yet. Hopefully any day now. For some reason, I'm expecting him to be E3b. I have no basis for that expectation, though. Maybe the recent Jewish E3b thread stuck the idea in my head? I'm looking forward to seeing the actual results!

Congratulations!

I guess we'll find out whether or not you are clairvoyant with regard to your grandfather's y-dna.

But how did you get to know about your batch number? My friend had his sample analyzed by GP but on his personal page there is no reference to a batch number!

Batches are created every Wednesday. I just saw when the "batch created" box was checked and then came over here to see which batch was created that week

GP doesn't give dates, so thanks for posting your July 14 target date.

Thankx for the clarification.

There is a tick mark next to each stage that he checks for from time to time, that's all, otherwise his page looks standard to me.

Target date says July 14th, so I guess we'll just have to sit and wait till then.
BTW: How come the SNP results are out for this batch but the 12-marker tests are not?

I'm waiting on 12 markers from this batch also, through the Genographic Project. GP doesn't give dates, so thanks for posting your July 14 target date. At least now I have a date to look forward to

I have a feeling that they did the SNP tests from this batch with the SNP tests from the previous batches since they were having so much trouble with them, especially R1b. It probably was more efficient for them to run a huge group of samples through the SNP tests at the same time, regardless of batch.

[Shaibani]

Are any 12 marker tests in for batch 156 yet? Huh? Huh? Huh? Huh? Huh? Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet?

I am wondering if FTDNA / lab are closed Monday & Tuesday for the 4th of July?!

I guess it is going to be delayed by another week

I was under the impression that the SNP testing takes longer, but maybe I am wrong.

Congratulations!

Thank you. I appreciate it.

Congrats, Stevo!!

Waiting for my grandfather's 12-marker results from the GP in this batch. Hoping he did a good scrape so there won't be any difficulty with his sample

Thanks, Elise.

I hope you get your grandfather's results soon.

Three Cheers for FTDNA!!!

I got my partial Deep SNP-R1b results . . . WAY EARLY!

Here's what I have thus far:

R1b1c M173+ M207+ M269+ M343+ P25+ M126- M153- M160- M18- M222- M65- M73- SRY2627-

All right!

Thanks, FTDNA!

Great work!

It will be a whole lot easier to wait for the rest now that I know I am confirmed as an R1b1c. It gives me new information that I can horse around with.

I am very very pleased.

My birthday is coming up. I may just order the upgrade to 67 markers.

I took my three-year-old swimming today for awhile. Stupidly, I let myself get sunburned. Now I have a headache.

I received a nice email from FTDNA explaining that they are having difficulties with some of the SNPs in the Deep SNP testing. I am to expect partial results soon while the difficult SNPs are being rerun.

It is good to be kept abreast of what is going on.

I also like the idea that FTDNA will let me know as much as they do while they are hunting down the rest.

I cannot complain in the face of such honesty and openess. After all, dna testing is a fairly new science, and there are bound to be difficulties.

I look forward to finding out what I can while I await the whole picture.

At least FTDNA isn't telling me I'm a descendant of Genghis Khan or handing me some doggoned "Viking Certificate."

I have one pending through the GP. I'm hoping to get the results sometime this week, though I believe the "official" target date for 12-marker tests in this batch is mid-July (about 6 weeks from batch creation). GP doesn't give dates, so I've had to guestimate!

Yesterday I received partial results from a DeepSNP-G test in this batch 155. These partial results were:

M201+ M285- M286- M342- P16- P18- P20-

In other words, my uncle has been confirmed as haplogroup G but his membership in G2 (signaled by SNP P15) is still in doubt.

Wow!

You already got at least some results from Batch 155?

That's encouraging!

And they were Deep SNP results, too!

Good, good . . .

[ragnar]

Exact same thing happened to me. They had to re-do to re-test for P15. Turned out + finally, so its G2.
