I just finished this book last night. Super great book. A very important read. We must not forget history so we don't repeat mistakes. Thank you for your podcast.

I recommend Lisa’s citation course. It was very helpful to break apart wonky genealogy citations, which I found to be much more complex than the ones I’m used to in academia.

great stuff guys, but think about sharing the screen when you interact with files and stuff so users can see what you are doing :)

Thanks ❤❤

As always, great episode!

So helpful - thanks

Hello Mrs, greetings. I am a professional TH-cam channel video SEO Expert. I visited your channel and found your channel video quality very good. But I noticed that the videos view are less and the subscribers are not increasing. Then I checked the channel and saw something problem on your channel. That's why views on videos are not increasing and subscribers are not increasing. Would love to share the issues if you are interested. This will increase the channel's organic views and organic subscribers. thank you

Hi Nicole, this is a fabulous tool that I am FINALLY using! I am having difficulty in trying to track both the GD and the cMs of multiple male testers. The problem arises when I enter 0 for the cM amount with a shared match. Let me explain... WG, CP, and DA have all tested both with Ydna on FTDNA and separately on Ancestry for the autosomal. WG and CP match on both the Y and the autosomal. DA matches WG and CP ONLY only on the Y. I need to capture that there is no cM match between DA and WG and DA and CP. Capturing this helps the algorithims in both DNA Painter and Banyan. Soooo, when I enter 0 for the amount of shared between DA and either CP or WG, the formula spits out 0 GD. Which if I were not careful, would lead me to think they had a much closer GD than they do (4 between them all). How can I separate the cm calculation field from the GD field?

Very useful! Thank you!

This makes a lot of sense. When I take out the extraneous descendants, I can get 3 groups for my Mom. There's no one who has tested who matches her maternal grandmother, who is the only one in her extended family who emigrated from Italy. (While we're in touch w/ some of our 2nd and 3rd cousins in Italy from that line, they have less than no interest in DNA testing.)

This was very helpful! I'm going to try to apply this strategy to one of my current brick walls. I do have some people with the same surname as my subject, living in a neighboring town within the same county. I have a theory that my subject and the man in the neighboring town are brothers, but have not found a way to confirm this yet. Perhaps I need to develop a project that focuses on the FAN and his family!

How do you change the round corners to normal 90 degree corner?

This video has been the most important video for me in the last 5 years. My genealogy goes back on both sides to Joseph Smith and my tree is mostly full on most sides. However, I have 4th great grandmothers I have been stuck on. I used your ideas for segementology analysis on MH and was able to find out the people from the 1600's within some previously identified segments. It is incredible to me how well this works. And how basically, we are all carrying around these original snippets -segments within segments- from all these people 10 generations ago. It works so well for me because my tree is pretty accurate and I am able to compare it to the trees of others and fill in blanks. Because of my mostly filled-in tree, I am able to see this before others, I believe. Yes I am eliminating pile-up areas, etc.

Ancestry is using its database and large membership to take advantage of us. No chromosome browser in 2024 when virtually every other site offers it for free! Shared matches on other sites...free! Male or female haplotype on 23&Me...free! They are losing me as a loyal customer!

Wow!!! I’ll definitely be giving this a miss.

Thank you so much for the great video. I ended up with more than four groups, so this will be very helpful for getting back down to the four groups. Much appreciated.

I find the DNA confirmation instructions confusing. I do have matches at Ancestry, myHeritage and FTDNA. Some matches are on WikiTree. But it feels daunting going through the confirmations. All of my close matches have known relationships. So is there any benefit actually putting the DNA confirmation on WikiTree? I've been using WikiTree since 2016 but only recently got round to adding my DNA info.

so no go for private with nothing.

too small

While I have made discoveries using Pro-Tools, I still have not solved a 20+ year brick wall identifying my 2nd and 3rd grandfather. I'm sure I have the family because so many are on Ancestry including 2nd-3rd cousins who all have trees. They have tried to help me. This involves and NPE and I just can't figure out how my female grands (at a young age) became impregnated and were in the same area as the men in this family.

Emma was my adoption angel on WikiTree. She is totes amazing! Thank you cousin!

Wow your presence presentation gentle kind words. As for myself don’t see advantages of new technology non expected parent having 2-3 & distant cousins they are likely to have married been told by search angel “not possible” Australia

Thank you for posting this video! I realize I’ve neglected my images and can do so much more to label and organize them!

You might want to become familiar with where your microphone is, and how it sounds to your audience. I am nearly sea-sick from the swaying fore and aft... barely hearing you fade away and then Boom! You're facing the mic again but it won't last as you fade away. Please don't neglect to think about how you sound on a video release. Thanks!

Thank you, that was helpful.

I noticed that the child of my paternal cousin was listed as maternal to me. I believe this is due to a possible extra chromosome. The child is not downs syndrome that i am aware of.

Excellent podcast, thank you

I have a bunch of typed deeds I need to try this with. Thank you for explaining how to make ChatGPT 4o do this.

Could you show us the next steps once we find these shared matches of matches with higher cMs?

So excited to listen to this long researched project! I have a similar ongoing question for my 2x Grandfather 's father!!! I will be reviewing your blogpost as well as listening over & over to Hopefully gleen more ideas for my project. Thanks for your encouraging news!

great video...just one little thing, the "i" in Regina is pronounced like the pronoun "I"...just in case you ever end up in Saskatchewan!

Great example and very helpful. I'm unsure how to shorten it (or if it can be shortened) if I'm citing multiple civil records from the same database.

So happy you are covering Banyan DNA! I was a Beta tester for it and am amazed at how far it has come along in the last year. Love the new Hypothesis vs. Validation calculations.

Happy to hear you digging into tools that are not covered in the RLP books!

Where did you go for the Collins Leeds?

This is a terrific video!

Love your Airtable Tables. Thanks for providing those.

My thought is that in the tax list where it says 'same' it's because the original owner of that land was John Cline but it is now owned by John C. Cline, same as above. So maybe no mistake there

Both the guests are awesome to work with in Wikitree <3

I've been on wiki tree for years but never looked at the DNA until now. Think I will start using it especially for the pedigree collapse. How can this be? My eighth cousin and I share 62 common ancestors according to wiki tree

Just love this short video series that you are doing!

This was great!

I wish you would have slides that show the different steps, instead of just talking.

Thank you, this is so helpful!

Really good information!

Good ❤

Good job. Thank you for the info.
