I already am a member of the FTDNA and my ID number is 21093. Do I now have to pay an additional $249 to belong to Family Finder ?

You should consider using a genetic test when you have a genealogical puzzle that cannot be solved with traditional records alone. A DNA test works in conjunction with existing genealogical records and our tests help you fill in the gaps where no records exist. The particular puzzle that you are working on will determine if it is best to use a Y-chromosome DNA (Y-DNA) test, a mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) test, or an autosomal DNA (Family Finder) test. Thanks for this post.

I stopped researching my family tree a few years ago because of those seemingly impassable road blocks genealogists come up against quite often…not enough (or lack of) information to prove a connection. Reading about the advances being made in DNA work and the affordable application to family history you are talking about here is prompting me to start up again. I have contacted several potential relatives and I’m hoping we can make breakthroughs not possible some years ago. These are interesting times for genealogists.

How does the Affymetrix chip being used by FTDNA compare with the Illumina HumanHap 550+ chip being used by 23andMe? Will one have an advantage over the other in terms of less “No Calls” and/or more accuracy? Is FTDNA using a “+” version of the Affymetrix chip so as to include specific extra SNP sites as 23andMe has done with their version of the 550 chip?

I am evaluated by Family Tree DNA at the 67 marker. I think I was tested by mitocholdral testing also. Please advise.

Is FTDNA evaluating my spit for the Autosomal because I am a long time member of FTDNA? I have had some success at 23andMe, but I am expection great discoveries with Family Finder. Everybody is excited.
