The North of Ireland Family History Society promotes and encourages the public and personal study
of world-wide family history, genealogy, heraldry and local history with particular reference to the North of Ireland.
Recognising the importance of DNA testing in developing family history, the Society has established various initiatives to help people use their DNA results to connect with others from around the world whose roots are in the North of Ireland.
Regular training courses, ongoing support, collaboration and research are key ways in which the Society promotes DNA testing as a way to help its members and the wider community to find genealogical connections that might not be possible through traditional methods of research.
We have created this TH-cam channel to provide information about DNA testing and how it can help you to analyse and manage your results to find connections and prove existing lines in your family tree.

Are Uploads Sufficient?

Uploading your DNA to different sites gives you many more matches to compare. But how accurate is a DNA upload compared with testing on the same site? This presentation goes through the different processes used by the DNA testing companies and how this can affect DNA uploads. No part of this video should be reproduced in any form.

A Case Study of the Nelson Family of Ballycarry
มุมมอง 7810 หลายเดือนก่อน
This presentation is a practical example of how autosomal DNA segment analysis and target testing can confirm lineage back to the first half of the 1700s. And what it can mean when the amount of shared DNA is too much for an expected relationship.

Using the Time Predictor Estimate on FTDNA
มุมมอง 161ปีที่แล้ว
The Time Predictor Estimate on FTDNA provides an estimate of how far in the past you and a Y-DNA match share a common paternal ancestor. FTDNA has simplified these estimates to make them much easier to understand. This video outlines how to read these estimates and what they mean. This video was recorded during one of our DNA Interest Group meetings.

North of Ireland DNA Project

Actually it is available on Android phones. I do a lot of my family history on my Android phone and I am able to use it. Also the rumor is that it's about $13 Canadian for the service in Canada. Also you don't have to have Pro Tools to be able to see your matches past 20 cm. All you have to do is go in where you decide like what family side you want to look at and stuff. And go to the Centa Morgan area and pick custom and if you want to look at say 7 Center Morgan's you have to put in seven to 10 CM And then you can see them.
Thank you for sharing this information 😊😊
At 03.33 you state you must use a laptop or computer to access these new tools. OK I don’t get the tools on the app. Does this mean I cannot use these tools when I access Ancestry via Safari in my iPad 😢😢
At 01.29 you state you must have a full Ancestry subscription. So with my monthly basic subscription I will not be able to get these tools 😢😢
Why in the hell would I want to find any more family?! Get a life. 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
The price in each country is based on $10 us, the difference in perceived costs is due to the rate of exchange in currency
Thank you very much, great information that so far I was not able to find else where. Just a quick note, they have updated the price in the UK now from £4.99 to £7.99.
Thank you very much for all your excellent work, and for this presentation. My cousin David Laird in Pennsylvania, USA matches David Laird, a tester in your Islandmagee Project. Without your work, my family would not have been able to find out where our Laird ancestors were before they went to County Down (the location of the earliest available records). Thanks again. I hope this presentation inspires other NIFHS projects.
Martin, when I go into my matches I do not have any symbols that identify if the match is through the paternal, maternal or both. Should FTDNA automatically add this feature or do I need to do something that results in the appropriate symbol being highlighted. I have a close relative match (12 segments, 245 DNA, 49 longest block) identified as possibly being 1st - 3rd cousin / Gr/half/uncle/aunt/neice/nephew etc. They don't have a tree to view and don't answer emails. Plus from my research they do not feature in any genealogical limbs to date. The name is rather unique so would definitely stand out. How do I work out from the chromosome browser if they are paternal or maternal (or not related at all as possible rogue match)?
Hi. That was all very interesting and helpful. Have used familytreedna for a number of years and didn't know my way around it. This is helpful . Will have to watch again and use the info as I watch. I will look to see if you have anything on searching for family in county down.
Extremely helpful video. Great examples and explanations
Thank you for posting this. There is family lore that says that we have Scottish descent even through my father's ethnicity is 100% Irish. His yDNA haplogroup is E-FGC11450, which shows little in the way of Scottish descent. The common ancestor is suggested at 2,800 years ago. So, while this is interesting, an ancestor born that far back will not give me any new leads for my Northern Ireland search. Any suggestions?
Irish genealogical records are notoriously sparse for common folk farther back than the mid 19th century. Good luck!
More information would help, do you live in the United States? "Family lore" in the US can be off when it comes to Scotland and Ireland. My mother's name is Graham, and I knew a guy in the army whose last name was Graham. Graham is a Scottish name, but he swore up and down that he was Irish. We were friends, so this was a bit of a "running argument". Whether he believes it or not, his Scottish ancestors went to Ireland, before moving to the United States. Of course, a "William de Graham" came to England with William the Conquerer.
Thanks, that's very helpful.
