I would say the prominent names on Uncle John’s Paternal side: Andrews (31) & Perry(20), 2nd group is Jones (15) and Reddick at (12) The second set is My Grandmother’s Parent’s side. The first group comprises my uncle’s Andrews side. He has 125 people between 400 cM and 90 cM and 285 people if I go down to 50 cM! I am only showing (2) Grandparents. (I was lucky enough to find her mother w/ original Social Security application and verify it with data on Ancestry) I’ve completely loaded from 400 down to 90 cM from my Uncle – her son who did DNA test for me a few years before he passed.
My Grandmother’s Father is my brick wall. I have a Brick wall and have been diligently trying to use your method for the last week. In fact, it’s encouraged! Author Dana Posted on FebruCategories Uncategorized Tags Leeds Method But then, yes, you can add in 4th cousins. I suggest creating the initial chart first. If we created clusters based on them, we could potentially only get 2 clusters instead of 4. First cousins, however, match us on either our dad’s or our mom’s side. When using the Leeds Method, we are hoping to discover four clusters based on our four grandparent lines. Instead, he should exclude me on his initial chart. If he was creating a Leeds Method chart and I was a “key person,” then that color cluster would include matches from two of his grandparents: Emil and Myrtle.He shares only one of my grandparents with me: Hazel. If I were creating a Leeds Method chart and he was a “key person”-that person who started a color cluster and I used his Shared Matches to create the color cluster-then the chart would be fine.However, if you know your biological parents and grandparents and are able to identify some of your matches, you should use those matches who share only ONE grandparent with you and avoid those who share TWO grandparents with you.Ībove I’ve shared a diagram of me and my first cousin once removed (1C1R), “Dave.” We share 350 cM of DNA. (Read this post to understand why we want 2nd cousins but not 1st cousins.) Known Biological Parents and Grandparents This is because we are hoping to find 2nd and 3rd cousins and avoid any first cousins who share two grandparents with you. In that case, I recommend using matches who share between 90 and 400 cM of DNA with you. If you are trying to identify an unknown biological parent or grandparent, you probably don’t know your 2nd and 3rd cousins.
For the most part, it depends on what you already know about your family and matches. I often get questions about which matches should be used when doing the Leeds Method.
