Batch Number 432

[JD Edwards]

Still waiting....

I'm still waiting on my mtDNA HVR1 from this batch...sigh... JD

[N21163]

Got my mtDNA results in...Haplogroup T2....confirmed a few things - more tests to come!

[Yaffa]

Just got my Family Finder results back - nice and early (due 11/11/2011).

Nothing too exciting: four 3rd ->5th cousins suggested 4th cousins. The rest are quite 'remote'. I'll see what I can scratch out. Maybe I'll find an acorn amongst all the hay.

Glad to have the results, though.

Got mine too. Now you only have to "WAIT" on you 111 markers. 1/2 your WAITING is now over.

I have two tests pending in Batch 432.

The batch notification indicates Nov 11, 2011.

Family Finder (at the el cheapo price !)
SNP Z142

The previous SNP test came back weeks ahead of time. I expect the FF will take longer as I'm sure there were many buyers at the Sale price.

Not much to do but wait ...

PS. I guess you have the Rugby gene
... (congrats from this Aussie ....)

Hahaha cheers! It's hard being an ex-pat Aussie living in NZ with the world cup on though!

You must have the YRYRYR STR ... as in "YR we waiting" ... quite common, it seems.

Last FTDNA told me they fixed our matches on FF but they are not done fixing chrom browser. Mine is still not working properly. Im sure this is what is holding us up from getting the new FF matches. I hope chrom browser is fixed this week

Im sick of Waiting, Waiting, Waiting

Yay !

Go to y-search (at the bottom of your "my FTDNA" page under 'Tools").

And don't overlook manually entering them elsewhere, too.

... you may have more ...

[N21163]

Results in!

Colin, welcome to the world of the Adoptee!...

Unlike many adoptee's I, at least know, the identity of my birth mother. My biological half sister is in Batch 434. When her results are back I can compare them to my 10 pages of results andperhaps isolate paternal relatives. Maybe then I can get some idea about my paternal heritage.

I guess I should say Thank You for the welcome.

Because your bio-status is at your own level, I can't even imagine what that must be like in the sense of looking for bio-dad. And of what you do with the information if/when you get it, and the outcome of those decisions.

In my case, it's a curiosity factor, and somewhat of a nuisance which has been stunting the growth of the family tree, at least on one major branch. But when I find the answer, it won't have any real impact on me given that it is ~180 years removed. Unless, of course, I am obliged to take possession of some Palace, and henceforth sit in a turret all day long counting my gold pieces. (I haven't made any concrete plans for that happenstance - such as canceling newspaper deliveries).

I must go - I see a TV crew in the street outside my door - they must have got a tip-off about my FF results ....
