Notes for understanding results:

  1. General Info
    • The first column is "ID", which is a number assigned to track the individual within the project.
    • The second column is the kit number for the test kit from Family Tree DNA.
    • The "Name" column is intended to list the "Earliest Known Ancestor", which we prefer, or the initials of the project member if the EKA is not available.  To provide your Earliest Known Ancestor, go to your FTDNA Personal Page, click on "User Preferences" to find the space to post this information. We also look at pedigrees provided for the Patriarch Page to find the EKA for project members..  (Some admins will state "Not Provided" when there is no Earliest Known Ancestor
  2. Haplogroups (abbreviated as "Haplo" in the Results table):
    • A Green Haplogroup result was determined by actual testing - with a SNP test (pronounced "snip")
    • A Red Haplogroup result has been estimated by FTDNA - using their internal database.  
    • A Black Haplogroup estimate was determined by some other estimating procedure
    • Sometimes, there is no haplogroup estimate - which is shown with a "-".  In those cases, FTDNA will (at their expense - and on their own timetable) arrange for a SNP test to determine the haplogroup
  3. Lineage:
    • A Lineage is "declared" when two men are matching 23/25 or better.  A "Lineage" is a genetic family who share a "recent" common ancestor.   The men in the Lineage "match".
    • Results shown together in a color group and assigned to a Lineage share a "recent" common ancestor - generally since the advent of surnames (c1100) and probably in the last 2-400 years - or even less.  The common ancestor could be the earliest ancestor on the oldest pedigree or could have lived as little as one generation earlier - or could have lived centuries earlier than any of the known ancestors.
    • The coloration of a Lineage is simply to show matching.  A specific color has no meaning - other than showing the match.
  4. Mutations:
    • Mutations from the typical result (which is probably the haplotype of the common ancestor) are shown in a contrasting color.
    • Where the mutation is matching a mutation from another result within the Lineage, the match likely indicates a more recent shared common ancestor (or a "branch" within the Lineage.) - as the two men probably both inherited the mutation from a recent common ancestor.
    • Mutations with no match have no significance at this time- but may be useful at some future date.
