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. Chan Edmondson I am evaluated by Family Tree DNA at the 67 marker.

The reason why I would like to know is because I already know I am HIV negative and never got smallpox. I also have a particular lineage that has been traced in my family and it goes back to as far as the year 1245 in Lancashire England and I can pinpoint which one of my particular ancestors came out of the bubonic plague unaffected by it. I usually don't get sick and when I do I recover fast. My husband had meningitis too and I miraculously never got it because it was very contagious.

The same phenomena or search for jewish ancestory is occuring the Spanish speaking community. If the database is not substantial enough and it does not support the currect percentages such as Anatolian..Or tests for mediterranean or neolithic origins or in the case of Larry David who took a dna test on George Lopez show his test results returned with a huge native american percentage. Now reading that this has occured before with a person of Jewish descent could it be logical to think that the opposite effect is occuring in the Spanish Speaking community? In other words Native American results are coming up as positives for Jewish ancestory? This is a fantastic article and commentary!
