It's fascinating to see the questions asked at the start of this thread in 2008
Thanks for reviving the thread
Since then not only has my mother tested but I tested then my late  paternal aunt

Followecd by 2 maternal cousins and a nephew so I can make comparisons across 3 generations.

My aunts DNA has helped other people identify their Scottish ancestor

Here's an interesting comparison from  a distant match
  haven't yet found the common ancestor  .
But a similar one in Canada linked to my Scottish gold prospecting relative . If a match only has 1 Scottish ancestor from shared matches I can tell them which of my aunt's grandparents they connect to
Roberts,Fellman.Macdermid smith jones,Bloch,Irvine,Hallis Stevenson
