Ancestral Family Tree DNA Testing / Chromosomes
« on: Wednesday 15 February 23 13:02 GMT (UK) »Hope somebody can help to clarify. I have a 4th-6th cousin who has discovered on Gedmatch that he and I share two chromosomes from my maternal side of the family. He has added them together together and says that he is now a closer cousin than first thought. Is he right?
Secondly, due to this new development he says that he is descended from my other great grandparents. I have always thought that inheritance of chromosomes from parents is random and therefore we have inherited a chromosome that other cousins have not but from the same ancestors. Am I correct?
Thanks
