I have, its a bit of fun and a bit of education.

We must come from somewhere. That's my starting point with the archaic matching. As far as I can work out the responses mean we share chromosomes to someone whose bones were discovered and aged at xx amount of years.

Hi David

Do you get any shared matches with the archaic dna?

I went through doing one to one matches and generally have no matches but then I found a 2.5 cM match with the LSK Stuttgart sample.

Wonder if I should read anything into it.

I came across this post whilst I was googling for my 6 x great grandmother's brother Yeoman John Puddephat of Hemel Hempstead.

He left his estate to his sister (my 6 x great grandmother Christiana Elkins/Steward born Puddephat.

Whether the Hemel Hempstead Puddephat's had offspring that moved to Chesham I don't know but it sounds plausible.

Lot's of info to be found if you google Christiana Puddephat. Someone has done quite a lot of research into the estate that the Puddephat's owned.

Best wishes

I am looking for help to find the parents of Thomas J Scott and his wife Nona Moore. My Ancestry DNA test is pointing me in their direction as relations. Possibly their grandparents are my shared direct ancestor.

Thomas was born around 1873.

Thomas and Nona are husband and wife in Emanuel, Georgia in 1930.

Thanks

Has anyone tried matching their DNA to the Archaic samples.

I am not sure what the answers mean and what does the heat map at the bottom of the matches mean?

Thanks Alfie

GEDmatch suggests that I have all sorts of differing ethnicity depending on which calculations I look at.

Bizarrely I am getting trace Amerindian in some calculations. How did that get there? I wonder if that's Alaskans heading into Siberia then on to the Baltics.
