Close-Kin Indication

[Padgett]

I have tested my mother's autosomal DNA on 24 markers. Of those, she has the same value on 6 of those markers. This means that she inherited the same allele from both her father and mother on these 6 markers.

Does this suggest that her parents were closely related? Or is it common to...

New Results

Just got Y panel 1-12 results in this batch.

Update

I have found the person who may be my true biological father and he is receptive to DNA testing He was quite shocked to get the call from me 34 years after the fact and barely has any memory of my mother, but he's being great about everything.

I will be meeting...

My omnipop 10 most common are:
Saharawis (North Africa) (31) 1.96E+10
Omani (28) 2.51E+10
Greek Cypriot (37) 3.76E+10
Egyptian (26) 3.80E+10
Southern Spain (Andalusia) (9) 3.91E+10...

Got my X-STR results for this block as well. I've posted them in the DB, but do not know how to find matches.

10074 - 8, 16
10075 - 17,18
10076 - 17, 17

I need to have my mom tested (father is unknown) to see which I received from her and which came from...

[Padgett]

They were able to complete the analysis without the last marker. Since we are mismatched at 4 markers, the result of the final marker will not change the results.

My presumed biological father is 100% excluded from being my father.

I guess I have a whole entire new set...

[Padgett]

I'm still waiting on one additional marker and the folks at FTDNA will perform the analysis for me and provide a report indicating what percentage of liklihood that my father is in fact my father versus another random male in the population.

My own research over the weekend has me doubting...

[Padgett]

Yes, all of the non-matches are one away numerically.

For example:

my FGA = 21, 21
his FGA = 19, 22

my D13S317 = 12, 13
his D13S317 = 11, 14

[Padgett]

We share at least one allele on 10 out of 14 markers. I'm still waiting on his Penta E result.

The markers we do not share an allele are:

D13S317
D18S51
D8S1179
FGA

We share both alleles on the following markers:
CSF1PO

I am female, so testing on Y is not an option.

The autosomal test description when I ordered indicated that it was used for paternity.

[Padgett]

I have received the results of both mine and my father's Autosomal Panel 1 markers today.....I did this test now that he is deceased to confirm once and for all that he is in fact my biological father. Some members of his family are not convinced and I never actually met him (I was raised by my step-father)....

[Padgett]

Some results in today

Just got some X-STR results in today (over a month early).

X-STR, Autosomal, CCR5

I have tests for both myself and father in this batch. All showing due 12/17

Autosomal Panel 1 (father and myself)
Autosomal Panel 2 (mine)
X-STR Panel 1 (mine)
X-STR Panel 2 (mine)
Autosomal CCR5 (mine)

Thanks

I guess this is the first time I've dealt with a common haplotype before. Both my husband and biological father are R1b1c* (based on deep clade tests), but theirs must be far less common than his.

My step-father is predicted to be R1b1c7 by FTDNA, his ysearch profile...

[Padgett]

I have a year of yDNA experience and am puzzled by my step-father's results. He has 239 (yes, 239) 25-marker matches and 3 of them are exacts with the remaining at a genetic distance of only 1. Needless to say most of these matches (all but 2 in fact) are a different surname than his and are further...
