Let's compare our pedigree chart...Great Tracy! <br />Let's compare our pedigree charts. I believe the Samuel to whom you refer is my 3rd great-grandfather and was buried in Licking County, OH in 1845. We were able to locate his tombstone in 2005 next to his wife Mary who died in 1849.<br /> Dr Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05774555636055110063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5415306683169000572.post-77274340075940138572017-04-21T16:05:05.466-07:002017-04-21T16:05:05.466-07:00Hi Dr D.

Would like to share my Pedigree with you but have had no luck with you Email @ the Grove Surname Project. You may contact me at Tentag1a AT AOL.com (email). <br />Thanks!Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02802063238399024734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5415306683169000572.post-38437741108565814632013-04-07T19:06:29.477-07:002013-04-07T19:06:29.477-07:00Even exact mitochondrial matches at the HVR1 or bo...Even exact mitochondrial matches at the HVR1 or both HVR1 and HVR2 levels do not yield much useful information for GENEALOGICAL purposes. A mismatch is meaningful; but a match gives only very general information. FTDNA says:<br /> "Matching on HVR1 means that you have a 50% chance of sharing a common maternal ancestor within the last fifty-two generations. That is about 1,300 years."<br /> "Matching on HVR1 and HVR2 means that you have a 50% chance of sharing a common maternal ancestor within the last twenty-eight generations. That is about 700 years."<br /><br /> In other words exact matches have only a "coin flip" chance of sharing a common female ancestor within the last 28 generations. Such tests can give information about DEEP ANCESTRY by predicting a haplogroup. <br /><br /> FTDNA tells us, "Matching on the Mitochondrial DNA Full Genomic Sequence test brings your matches into more recent times. It means that you have a 50% chance of sharing a common maternal ancestor within the last 5 generations. That is about 125 years." <br /> <br /> Matches within this time frame can be meaningful in answering genealogical questions--finding relationships within the last few centuries. Even a match on at all 16,569 locations of the mitochondria may be with cousins with whom you share a common ancestor 4 centuries ago; but the match can be much closer.<br /> <br />Dr Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05774555636055110063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5415306683169000572.post-51071959723645115282013-04-07T16:08:31.599-07:002013-04-07T16:08:31.599-07:00Mavis,
