Batch 615

[LadyAlaise]

Able to download Raw Data

Just a heads up; I am able to download my Raw Data....still no matches on Chrom. Browser or Matches or Matrix etc.
Now if Gedmatch would just co-operate with me I would be dandy.....

My kit in batch 615 said completed on 28/5/15.Great I thought, but there was no matches or no download raw data. Now it has reverted back to the previous message about failing quality control and results should be available 10/6/15-24/6/15.I thought the current turnaround for FF was 5-6 weeks. It was batched on 25/3/15, actually I have just checked the order history, it still states that FF was completed on 28/5/15

My latest test sample has slipped again (Batch 615). This time, at least, it says it failed QC. I have never had a sample fail QC before. What happens if they didn't get enough DNA or it is contaminated or something like that? Is it simply another collection kit that gets sent out, or is it another full charge?

Had similar message:
06/17/2015 - 07/01/2015 - Your sample has failed to pass quality control. If we need additional sample or action from you to continue, an email will be sent to the primary email address on the account. Thank you for your patience.

I called after receiving this one and was told that was not the issue as they have not even opened my second vial.

Batch 607 (YDNA 37 to 111) - Batched 01/28/2015

Understood about the weather impact.

Thanks for the clarification.

Oh! Look at that!
Thank you!
That is a good sign, right?

Thank you! My 1st cousin 1x removed will be tickled. He thought he messed up the test.

That means that your data was processed by the lab. Please ignore whatever automatic e-mail you might be getting

When everything will be available? Well..., I have no idea. The original announcement from FTDNA gave the ETA for the last Friday evening, then it was postponed to yesterday, but storms and floods in the Houston area must be causing some delays over the last 48 hours.

Please check whether you have data in myOrigins.

It could be an automated message...

You're welcome

yeah my FF expected results range changed again!
06/10/2015 - 06/24/2015
Still have myOrigins results but no ff matches, or Raw Data....
I am just assuming that everything will be delayed due to the flooding in Texas and Houston especially.

Thank you for clarifying that raw data is not available for a download, yet.

Hi

The raw data isn't available for download yet.

Hi

Has anybody received their results yet for the Family Finder kits in Batch 615 that were delayed? My Origins appeared on about 22/05/2015, but nothing else.

Meanwhile I have another new message - Your sample has failed to pass quality control. Now expected
10/06/15-24/06/2015.

The kit was batched on 25/03/2015.

Thanks

James

That status message comes on automatically...

Since clearly your results are already out of the lab, anything that could have possibly failed was QC, however, if you look elsewhere in the forum, there is a message from FTDNA staff that their IT is working on fixes/changes and no ETA...

W. (Mr.)

P.S.
Did you check whether your raw data is available for a download? Another kit owner, LadyAlaise, tried and they were not.

@dna/Mr.W

Thank you! I have worked VERY hard on my tree I will admit further back in it there are some bumps to iron out or dates that need some tweeking and I slowly have been going up and over the lines again to make sure I don't have errors but with such a HUGE tree it's time consuming.
I do have MANY other trees dedicated to mapping out the descendants of certian pairs of Ancestors; John Benjamin Witham and Ann Pauline Akers would be one of them. So would Francois Martin LeBlanc etc. So if you ever get curious I have plenty to share lol
But yes; the George A. Wilson line is the line with the supposed first Nation ancestry; The main thread in the family stories about him is that he was Half French, Half Native (Mi'Kmaq), there was also some question of some possible Greek and or Spanish in there too?? (not sure how that would fit but his Granddaughter (My Nana), would say Her father (George SR's son), had a Grecian nose; for whatever that is worth;
later she sometimes would say he was Spanish....(he did serve in the Spanish American War);around the time the "he's part Spanish" came about my Nana was suffering from Alzheimer's.
The stories of Her Grandfather being half French and half Mi'Kmaq were around from when I was very young; long before Nana's Alzheimer's started; and the stories came from both Nana and my Great Uncle George...
The other part of the stories; was that George A. Wilson and John A. Martis were one in the same; I have the marriage records for Carrie T. Witham to John A. Martis; as well as two birth records for her first two children; who by 1880 are renamed with the last name WILSON; Addie Adella Martis is now Addie A. (Adeline) Wilson; same birthplace and date. And Darius Burnham Martis is now renamed Brooks Burnham Wilson; same birth date and place; IRONICLY John A. Martis had both a Brother and an Uncle named Brooks Burnham Martis. IF George A. Wilson (SR) and John A. Martis were NOT one in the same; why would George Rename his stepson after that child's father's Uncle and Brother???? And WHERE the hell did John A. Martis GO? Added that I cannot find a marriage record for Carrie To George nor can I find ANY birth/baptism records for Carrie & George's children born in NH: the first time I see George with Carrie is in the 1880 Waterville, ME census.
