Nevertheless, you can still transfer your DNA to FTDNA and join the project that way (instructions at the end of this post). However, if you want to see which Y-DNA group you belong to, you will need to do FTDNA's Y-DNA-37 test ($119) in order to be allocated to a particular Y-DNA group.<br /><br />Transfer instructions here ... https://dna-explained.com/2019/11/04/dna-file-upload-download-and-transfer-instructions-to-and-from-dna-testing-companies/Maurice Gleesonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03920753459154271648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6052155917504753043.post-24734706057247821452021-04-12T20:34:42.473-07:002021-04-12T20:34:42.473-07:00I am using my brother's dna on ancestry.com fo...I am using my brother's dna on ancestry.com for family tree research. Can I transfer the information or do i need to a test of my own?

You can see this on row 1861 here … https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1JvXoBCBBk42DIF7BYPaLsQ1jojN3etgDR8pByaTRnq4/edit#gid=1078904281<br /><br />Using Admin Utilities, the path that people with this SNP took out of Africa over the past 250,000 years or so is as follows … http://scaledinnovation.com/gg/snpTracker.html?snp=R-CTS5330 and the age of this SNP is approximately 1500 years ago (see under SNPs tab). You can see the only goes as far as Eastern Europe - further testing might move the path closer into Europe (and within the last 1500 years). The SNP markers that characterise each branch along this pathway (so far) are as follows:<br />R-L389 > R-V1636 > R-V1274 > R-CTS6460 > R-BY15391 > R-CTS5330<br /><br />Also, the branch of the Tree of Mankind (Y-Haplotree) on which your brother currently sits appears to be quite rare - there are only a few people on this branch and they are from Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic, and Belarus … https://www.familytreedna.com/public/y-dna-haplotree/R;name=R-CTS5330 <br /><br />So the test your brother did only gave very top-level results for his Y-DNA and if he tested at FTDNA he would receive more fine-detailed results that would place him on a more downstream branch of the Tree of Mankind. Start with the Y-DNA-37. It could also give you a list of anyone who matches his Y-DNA and these may be related to him within the last 1000 years. If he is a Farrell, lots of Farrell men should show up among his matches … but given the apparent rarity of his branch, it may be that he is sitting there on his own until someone else on that branch decides to take the test and enters the database.<br /><br />Best, MauriceMaurice Gleesonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03920753459154271648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6052155917504753043.post-62745714505582156272020-12-12T13:40:03.007-08:002020-12-12T13:40:03.007-08:00Hi Maurice, please advise/guide me as to how to us...Hi Maurice, please advise/guide me as to how to use my brother's y haplogroup to find our Farrell root[s]. He tested with a company in South Africa where he lives. The haplogroup he has is R1b1a2a1a1 - where will he fit in? Much appreciated, thank you.
