E-Y14891 (AB-005) Project

Hello Project Members, For most people, a Big Y test does not fit into the budget for an individual's genetic genealogy. So, to make progress through Y-DNA, strategically ordering SNPs and/or upgrading one's STR marker results can be a very helpful alternative to the project as well as individual genealogies. One can test SNPs and STR markers at both FTDNA and at YSEQ. Here we will explain how one can order one of these tests if we predict that it is needed, or if you are just curious. Ordering a SNP through FTDNA 1) Log into your FTDNA account 2) Click the "Addons and upgrades" on the top of the page 3) Scroll all the way down and click on "Advanced SNP order form" -Or, click here:  https://www.familytreedna.com/upgrades.aspx?ot=ADV 4) Type in the name of the specific SNP you wish to order 5) Complete the payment 6) The test will be batched within a few days, after which an estimated return period will be given Ordering an STR upgrade through F...

Hello Project Members, As you all know, our specific project primary runs through Family Tree DNA. However, the nature of our work means that we are affiliated with other projects at FTDNA as well as other companies entirely. It is often necessarily or at least very helpful for project members to be in each project, as long as it applies to the amount of testing already done. Please follow these instructions to join each specific project group. Thank you! AvotaynuDNA Project at FTDNA - For all project members who have tested with FTDNA 1) Sign into your account at www.familytreedna.com/my/ 2) Go to the Avotaynu project page:  https://www.familytreedna.com/groups/avotaynu/about 3) Click "JOIN" in the upper right. 4) Generally, it is best if you give them advanced access which they may need if you ever end up ordering a Big Y test through them. 5) Follow through all the steps and it will be complete!
