<span style="font-size: small; font-weight: normal;">I know performance is a point of frustration with Genome Mate Pro (GMP) for some. I can see a significant difference when loading data into my husband’s computer versus mine.</span></div>
<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; clear: both; font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; line-height: 1.2308; margin: 0px 0px 1.2308em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-size: small; font-weight: normal;">There is no doubt that GMP is much slower importing data than the old app. This is because the old app kept all data in memory and saved to disk every 5 minutes. Memory access is much faster than disk access but due to a Silverlight constraint, the in-memory database was limited in size.</span></div>
</header><div class="entry-content" style="border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; color: #333333; font-family: "Noto Serif", serif; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 82.5284px 82.5284px; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">
<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; margin-bottom: 1.6842em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
The new app is virtually unlimited in size as it keeps the data in an SQLite database on disk. However, the time it takes to load is a function of disk access speed and this varies from user to user. I have been told that a solid state drive (SSD) is very efficient.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; margin-bottom: 1.6842em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
One way to improve performance without replacing your hardware is to set the import criteria in Options as highlighted below. This will reduce the number of writes to the log file.</div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit;">Starting with the 2016r01 release, it will be possible to enable in-memory journaling. What this does is to write the SQLite journal file to memory rather than disk. This is not recommended because there is a risk that if GMP is shutdown abnormally, the database may become corrupted and unusable. If you do choose to use this option, BACKUP (File -> Backup) first.</span></div>

P.S. Tested loading data on my husband’s slow computer with these two options and the import time was amazing (197k records in less than 30 mins).</div>

<span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: small; font-weight: normal;">Having issues importing data? Data not there or rejected?

<li><span style="font-weight: normal;">Verify that the data in question is contained in the import file and if using copy/paste that the data is copied from the Chrome browser.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: normal;">Verify that the keys (name, kit, etc.) in the Profile record are entered correctly with the names and keys exactly as they are listed in the source data file. Otherwise, the app will not be able to identify the correct profile.</span></li>

The purpose of this post is to explain how triangulation and “in common with” (ICW) work in Genome Mate Pro.</div>

From the Chromosome Browser page, right click on a Relative to see what segments triangulate with that person and the profile person.</div>

The first thing to note is that the app only displays what has been imported. It has no means to automatically identify either of these so if it is missing in the display then look to the import log to see if there is an error message associated with the import.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; font-family: "Noto Serif", serif; font-size: 19px; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 1.6842em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
The second thing to note is that triangulation and ICW data are only retained for relatives found in the database. This is different from the old version of the app and it is important to load relative data before loading chromosome data.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; font-family: "Noto Serif", serif; font-size: 19px; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 1.6842em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: center; vertical-align: baseline;">

In Genome Mate Pro, triangulation is based on two people being related to the profile person on the same chromosome segment so triangulation data has a chromosome number, base pair start and end points associated with it.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; font-family: "Noto Serif", serif; font-size: 19px; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 1.6842em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
For example, profile person P matches relative A and matches relative B <em style="border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; font-family: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-weight: 700; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">on the same segment</span></em> (P==A, P==B). If relative A also matches relative B <em style="border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; font-family: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-weight: 700; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">on the same segment</span></em> (A==B) then P, A and B are triangulated. <em style="border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; font-family: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Otherwise, either A or B is likely related to profile person P on their maternal side while the other is related on their paternal side.</em></div>

Data is loaded via various chromosome browser files such as the 529andYou and FTDNA Chromosome browser .csv files as well as specific triangulation imports such as GedMatch’s Tier 1 Triangulation. Triangulations loaded from chromosome browser data have the import limitations listed on the Options page imposed on them as well.</div>

ICW relatives do not have the chromosome, start point and end point data associated between them (typically from FTDNA) and as a result, the profile person P can have an ancestor in common with both relatives A and B but even if A and B have an ancestor in common, it is not necessarily the same one that is in common with profile person P.</div>

<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif";">DNA evidence
has been extremely useful in confirming my Kirk family as well as moving the
family back several generations.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b><span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif";">Lucinda Kirk<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif";">Lucinda Kirk
was the wife of Henry Ridenour of Mercer Co. Missouri per my Aunt Blanche and mother of Thomas Riley
Ridenour, my great grandfather. The only
census record for Lucinda and Henry can be found in the 1850 Mercer Co.
Missouri census where they are listed with a daughter, Hester, age 2 indicating
that they married about 1847. In the 1860
census, Lucinda is missing but a 4 month old daughter, M.M. is enumerated indicating
that she likely died in child birth in February of that year. This is the only paper trail that I have
found on Lucinda.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif";">Because
Lucinda named her son Thomas Riley, we suspected that Lucinda was a daughter to
Thomas Riley Kirk. In the 1840 Anderson
Co. TN census, there were 2 females age 5 to 9 listed. In 1850, there is only Nancy, age 15 and that
would be consistent with Lucinda being the second daughter, married and living
with Henry Ridenour in 1850. This was
confirmed by a strong DNA match with Wiley Clark Kirk’s grandson who is listed in
Thomas Riley Kirk’s 1860 census as Clark, age 20.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b><span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif";">Thomas Riley Kirk<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif";">Thomas was
born 1790 in Virginia per most census records and his children’s birthplaces
are listed as Tennessee. There are two
Kirk families in Tennessee, both with similar names. In 1850, his wife is listed as Patsy and
Martha in 1860. Carrie Kirk lists her
name as Martha Gwinn and their marriage as September 15, 1825 in Anderson Co. Tennessee. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif";">In 1998,
Margaret Summitt sent me a transcript of the Kirk family history by Effie
Lenore Kirk written about 1950 and based on bible records and family
interviews. In this, Thomas, John and
Elijah are named as sons of John Kirk and that seems to be confirmed by census
and land transactions in Anderson Co. Tennessee. Effie was a descendant of John Kirk Jr. who
married Eva Nausler while we descend through his brother, Thomas.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b><span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif";">John Kirk<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif";">John
purchased land in Anderson Co. Tennessee in 1807, witnessed by Elijah and sold
land to John Kirk Jr. the same year. In
1808, there is a Giles Co. Virginia land transaction from John Kirk of Anderson
Co. Tennessee to an Isaiah Givens establishing that John’s family was in Giles
Co. Virginia before coming to Tennessee.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif";">Per “Kirk
Families of Early Fauquier and Giles Counties” by Edgar C. Smith, there were
two different Kirk families with similar names living in Giles Co.
Virginia. He references them as the
Green Valley Kirks and the Stinking Creek Kirks. Our Kirk line came from the latter as it was
noted in the assessor’s records that John Kirk had moved to Anderson Co.
Tennessee in 1807/08.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif";">In 1801,
Thomas Kirk of Montgomery Co. Virginia died naming as heirs 6 sons, 2 daughters
and his wife Margot and a land grant to the same named heirs of Thomas Kirk,
placed the acreage on Stinking Creek thus establishing Thomas and Margot Kirk
as John’s parents. Marriage records for
these same children can be found in Montgomery Co. Virginia.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b><span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif";">Thomas Kirk d. 1801<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif";">Thomas’ wife,
Margot is named by others as the daughter of William Duncan and Ruth
Rawley. And while I have yet to search
for the paper trail to confirm, I suspect that this is the source for the name
Riley being passed down through the generations of our family even to one of my
uncles.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">

<div class="MsoNoSpacing">

Segments are a way to defined what DNA for the profile person was inherited from which of their ancestors.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Let's first describe how to set up segments then move on to the Segments Map.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Creating Segments</span></h3>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Segments are created automatically when on a Match Details page, the ICW is set to start with M for maternal or P for paternal, AND the confirmed ancestors (MRCA) for that match are selected.</span><br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-evN74QAhraVW-zNu5mDvnjm_wthLbRfKeGV4T7rg2p1bVsDju67gryMmX_59poDVr59AGmeeO9GMsyRbEa9tl78B84bTbRRl4k80_5qun6j5PXxiG-Yq-y0his9WKcJItBgthEy0X7B7/s1600/seg3.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-evN74QAhraVW-zNu5mDvnjm_wthLbRfKeGV4T7rg2p1bVsDju67gryMmX_59poDVr59AGmeeO9GMsyRbEa9tl78B84bTbRRl4k80_5qun6j5PXxiG-Yq-y0his9WKcJItBgthEy0X7B7/s1600/seg3.png" height="137" width="400" /></span></a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;"><br /></span></td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">This creates a temporary segment that will be shown on the chromosome map at the top of the main page and on the Segment map. Note that confirmed ancestor selections are only available if a gedcom has been uploaded for the profile person (Profiles > Select Profile > Load Gedcom File).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">To view segment information, on the Main page, right click on the segment on the chromosome map and the Segment Details page will be displayed showing the surnames associated with those ancestors and the matches that were used to create the segment.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

</tbody></table>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">A temporary segment is created when setting the ICW and confirmed ancestors on the Match Details page. If that information is changed in the Match Details page, then the temporary segment will also change. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">When you are confident of a segment's definition, make it permanent by clicking on the Save button and you will be given the option of naming the segment id and marking the ICW of other associated segments with the segment id. You may also add comments to the segment description.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Use the Delete button to remove permanent segments no longer wanted.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">To access the Segments Map, on the Main Page click on Segments. </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">This displays the segments for all 23 chromosomes in either a map or table format. To manually add a permanent segment, click on the Add Segment button and fill in the information.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">There are times when mapping an ancestor is desired but intervening ancestors are not known as in the case of adoptees or in trying to push through a family tree dead end.

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Final Comments</span></h3>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Some thought needs to be given to how to use permanent segments and how to assign segment ids. It took me several attempts to settle into what was acceptable for my data.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">It is recommended that you backup your database and experiment before settling on a particular course of action.</span></div>

Excluding adoptees, about 90% of the matches with whom I share DNA have not put together a basic family tree so trying to find a common ancestor can be difficult. This blog is dedicated to the paper trail.</span><br />

generation by generation, try to answer these questions:</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in;">
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Who was this
person’s parents and why do I think so?<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in;">
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Who did this person
marry and why do I think so?<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><i>Who were this
person’s children and why do I think so?</i><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Exact dates are nice to have but not
necessary. If I don’t have a date for a
marriage, I assume they were married before their first child was born. If I don’t have a birth date, I assume that
males were at least age 21 and females age 18 before they married. While this can vary somewhat, it puts you in
the right decade for evaluating the reasonableness of your research.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;">Source Data</span></h3>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">It is important to answer the question <i>“why
do I think so?”</i> with references to source material. The quality of your sources determines the
potential accuracy of your research. It
often takes more than one source to adequately establish the answer to one of
these questions. For example, before a
marriage takes place, both families are probably residing in the vicinity so
not only do you need a marriage record but proof that the family lived in the
area at the time.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><a href="https://familysearch.org/search" target="_blank">Family Search</a> (free) and <a href="http://ancestry.com/" target="_blank">Ancestry</a> (paid) are great resources for data but be aware of the that not all source data is equally reliable.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Sources can be classified as primary, secondary and
questionable. Most people can document the first few generations of their family with primary sources.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Primary sources while they
can contain inaccuracies are often the most reliable information. In a perfect world, we would document our
genealogy with primary sources such as:</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in;">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoBodyText">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Secondary sources are less accurate and subject to errors of memory or clerical
mistakes. Some of these include:</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in;">

<div class="MsoBodyText">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Questionable sources are those that give you a clue to
where to look <u>but should be confirmed with primary & secondary
sources</u>. These include:<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">In the beginning, I must have made
all the mistakes that someone new to genealogy can make and that are too
numerous to list here. Finally, I
settled into this simple but adequate approach for establishing a paper trail of my ancestors.</span></div>

Genome Mate will skip duplicate data and just add the new matches and relatives.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Genome Mate accepts data from several sources. Some data is copied and pasted from browser pages while others can be imported from a comma separated values (*.csv) file from different sites.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The format of these files is determined by the site creating the file so it is important to select the correct option when loading. If you have difficulty loading a file, send the file and a description of the issue in an email to support@genomemate.org.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">There are two types data that may be imported:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span>1. DNA segments shared with a Relative</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span>2. Relative specific data such as surnames, ICWs, email address, etc. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">When DNA segment data is imported, a table will be presented for you to review prior to adding the data. Please review any messages and if everything is okay, press the Add Data button.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>

It is opened when a DNA segment on the main page is selected.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

</tbody></table>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Before explaining this page in detail, let's take a moment to talk about how Genome Mate stores information. There are two types of records kept.</span><br />
<br />
<ol>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Relative record - retains data about a relative such as surnames, email, family tree link, etc.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Match record - retains data about an individual DNA segment match between the profile person and a relative</span></li>
</ol>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Ideally, there should be one Relative record and multiple Match records, one for each segment on which the profile person and the relative are related. In practice, there may be multiple Relative records because of different key values from the testing companies but these may be merged into one record on the Relative Details page. The matches for each company cannot be merged but duplicates are easily identified on the main page as they are colored according to source.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The Match Detail pages is for a single DNA segment match between the profile person and the relative. At the top of the page will be the relative's name, segment data and the source (23andMe, FTDNA, etc) of the match. Starting left to right:</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Column 1:</span></div>
<div>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Relative - Name to be displayed for the Relative</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Contact Name - free field to enter name of relative's contact</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Phone - free field to enter contact's phone number</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Relative Note - Note to be displayed with relative information</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Family Tree - URL of relative's family tree with clickable link to open it in a browser window (for Windows users only as it crashes on a Mac)</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Email - Email address of the relative's contact with clickable link to open the default email client and format a form letter (for Windows users only as it crashes on a Mac)</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Match Key - this is a read only value showing the key for the relative for this match source (23andMe, FTDNA, etc.). Right click to copy key to clipboard.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Match Note - Note to be displayed with individual DNA segment</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">ICW Group - Anything can be entered into this field to group common DNA segments. However, if known, it should start with M for maternal and P for paternal. There are radio buttons for quick entry.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Research Comments - this is a free field for entry of information or correspondence with a relative.</span></li>
</ul>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Column 2:</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Profile Overlaps or Triangulated Matches - If triangulated matches are available, they will be displayed in the top box and clicking on the circle icon next to the title will toggle the profile overlaps display. Otherwise, only profile overlaps will be displayed. Right click on box to copy to clipboard.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Enter Surnames - The surnames of the relative's ancestors should be entered here separated by a comma. They will be stored in the Relative's record.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Surnames in Common - This is a list of the surnames found in common with the Profile person's ancestors from loading their gedcom in <a href="http://genealogypuzzlesdna.blogspot.com/2014/06/genome-mate-profiles-option.html" target="_blank">Profiles</a> taking the ICW group into consideration. Right click to copy to clipboard.</span></li>
</ul>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Column 3:</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<ul>

For example, in my family, I manage kits for my siblings, a maternal uncle and a paternal cousin, each of whom has a profile in the application. The very first time, Genome Mate is opened it will require that a profile be created before continuing (Enter Profile Name > Add > Close).</span><div>

</tbody></table>
<h3>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;">Profile Name</span></h3>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The profile name is a key field in the individual DNA segment matches between the profile person and their relatives. If 23andMe is one of the sources for DNA segment data then it is important to enter the profile name exactly as it is on that person's 23andMe profile or change the 23andMe profile name to match before importing data. <i>Do not use special characters!</i></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">To change the profile name, type in a new name then Close. All of the associated match data will be modified to reflect the new name.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<h3>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;">GedMatch Kit</span></h3>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">If there is also a GedMatch Kit for this profile, enter the kit #. This is the key field required to import GedMatch data.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<h3>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;">Load Gedcom File</span></h3>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">While loading a gedcom file is optional, it is required for the Surnames, Ancestors, and X List options as well as to provide surname comparisons in the Match Details page.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Only gedcom file format version 5.5 with UTF8 characters is supported. If your software doesn't support this format, try reformatting it with the free <a href="https://www.rootsmagic.com/Try/RootsMagic/" target="_blank">RootsMagic Essentials</a> app then importing it.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Some common issues with the gedcom import are having multiple ancestors linked to the same person or trying to use a format other than 5.5 such as 5.5.1. <i>It doesn't hurt to try a different format but the app may not process it correctly.</i></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">When new family tree data becomes available, just load the new gedcom and it will replace the old data in the application.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">To load a gedcom:</span></div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Profiles > Select Profile Name > Load Gedcom File > Select gedcom file > Select the person in the gedcom who is the profile person > Yes > Close</span></blockquote>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Note that the profile person <u>must</u> be in the gedcom. The application strips out the direct ancestors of the profile person along with their birth, marriage, death and residence events and uses this information to populate the surname, ancestor and X donor lists.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<h3>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;">Delete</span></h3>

It happens automatically when sufficient data has been added to Genome Mate.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<h2 style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"> The Basics</span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">This section will provide the information required to get the chromosome map at the top of the page to display. It requires three sets of data:</span><br />
<br />
<ol>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><i><b>Family History File</b></i>: Profiles > Select Profile Name > Load Gedcom File > Select filename > Select the name of the profile person listed in the Gedcom > Yes</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><i><b>Identify Segment Source</b></i>: Each chromosome is made up of one part paternal DNA and one part maternal DNA so the chromosome map segment must be identified as having come from your father or your mother.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><i><b>Identify Common Ancestors</b></i>: For the relatives on the DNA segment in question, identify common ancestors.</span></li>
</ol>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">With these three pieces of information, the chromosome map segment can be created:</span><br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">In Genome Mate > Click relative's match on the main page to open the match details page > Select ICW Group (M or P) > Select Confirmed Paternal > Select Confirmed Maternal > OK</span></li>
</ul>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Genome Mate will automatically create a temporary map segment for the match identified. If you change it, it will be automatically changed. <i>I use temporary segments to track a possible origin of a DNA segment when I find a common ancestor with one relative but have yet to triangulate it with another.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Some useful shortcuts:</span><br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">On the chromosome map at the top of the page:</span></blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Left click on a segment to see all of the matches overlapping that segment</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Right click to see what relative or relatives were the source of the segment and possible segment surnames</span></li>
</ul>
</blockquote>
<br />
<h2 style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Working With Map Segments</span></h2>
<h4 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;"><i><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The information contained in this section is entirely optional and not required for either the application or the chromosome map to work correctly.</span></i></span></h4>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The Segment List displays the paternal and maternal map segments that have been defined using the criteria discussed in the previous section. For each chromosome, the map segments are layered by the generational distance from the profile person. In other words, a father's segments would be plotted first then overlayed with the grandfather or grandmother's segments and so on. To see an individual layer, click on the generation's color in the lower right hand corner.</span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">There are cases where manually adding a segment may be desirable. For example, I have a very well defined section of DNA that is associated with my Native American heritage but zero matches on that section so I added a segment manually as a note to myself. Using the Add Segment button will create a permanent segment in the generation specified.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">One of the most frequently asked questions is what is the difference between In Common With (ICW), triangulation and overlapping segments. Let's start with a definition of each in relation to the Genome Mate profile person before moving on to more details.</span><br />
<br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><i>In Common With (ICW)</i> - ICW simply means that two Relatives have some DNA in common and are thereby related to each other but not necessarily on the same segment as the profile person.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><i>Triangulation</i> - </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Triangulation means that the profile person plus two or more people are related to each other on the same DNA segment and thereby share a common ancestor. </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><i>Overlapping Segments</i> - Overlapping segments are DNA segments from two or more Relatives whose start and end points overlap each other.</span></li>
</ul>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;">In Common With (ICW) in Genome Mate</span></h3>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">In Genome Mate, there is an ICW indicator next to the Relative's name and if you hover your mouse over it, it will highlight the other relatives on that segment who are related to that person. However, it says nothing about if they are all related on that particular segment.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">When a segment crosses a centromere, there is a greater chance the segment is a mismatch or IBS (identical by sequence) rather than IBD (identical by descent). When this occurs, the ICW group on the graph will be an orange color to alert to the possibility.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The ICW group can be set to any value by clicking on a DNA segment and setting the value in the Match details page. However, note that, if known, it should start with M for maternal or P for paternal for surname matching and chromosome mapping to work correctly.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><i>Keyboard shortcut</i>: If you left click on the ICW indicator, you can mark every person highlighted with a value you enter except for those who have an * in their ICW. If you right click on the ICW icon, it will copy the ICW group value contained in that Relative record to all highlighted relatives except for those who have an * in their ICW value. <i style="background-color: #cfe2f3;">Use this with <u>caution</u> since ICW relatives are not always related to each other on the highlighted segment.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">There are several ways to load ICW data depending on the data source but note that <u>Relative data must have been loaded first</u> or the ICW data will be rejected.</span><br />
<br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>23andMe</b> - The recommended method of loading ICW for 23andMe is to use the 529andYou CSV file but there are other, more time consuming and less comprehensive ways to get the data. In order of preference:</span></li>

</blockquote>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">ICW data provides clues that the researcher can use to dig further into family trees to see if there is a connection between Relatives on the DNA segment in question. Not having an ICW between two relatives is a good way to avoid researching people not related.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;">Triangulation</span></h3>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Triangulation means that the profile person plus two or more people are related to each other on the same DNA segment and thereby share a common ancestor. This is determined by a three way match between the profile person and two relatives (P = A, P = B, A = B).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;">Automation of triangulation is only available for 23andMe data imported from the 529andYou CSV file and the Segment Triangulation data from GedMatch (limited to first 200 top Relatives). </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;">If triangulation data has been loaded into Genome Mate then clicking on a Relative's DNA segment will show the triangulated data in the upper middle box of the match details page. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;">Triangulated relatives establish an ancestral line on which they all share a common ancestor even if that ancestor is not currently known.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;">Overlapping Segments</span></h3>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Overlapping segments are DNA segments from two or more Relatives whose start and end points overlap each other. Each overlapping segment contains DNA from both the paternal and the maternal sides of the family so segments that overlap are not necessarily related to each other. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Use DNA matches to known family members to set the segment's ICW group to either P (paternal) or M (maternal). Otherwise, any ICW value is okay to indicate a group of triangulated matches.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Segments that have been identified as maternal or paternal but whose overlap is small may not be related. To to filter those out, a default overlap value can be set and compared to the segment's start and end points to determine if it should be displayed. To set the default value:</span><br />
<br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">In Genome Mate > Options > Set Minimum Segment Overlap</span></li>
</ul>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">There are tools in Genome Mate to work with overlapping segments: </span><br />
<br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">On Genome Mate graph: Left click on the circle icon next to the profile name and all of the segment overlaps for that particular segment will be displayed.

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">This has been a dead end for years but DNA results from <a href="http://home.comcast.net/~libpjr1/robertsdna.htm" target="_blank">Peter Robert's site</a> indicate that William descended from or is closely related to the immigrant
Peter Roberts b.c. 1665 Gloucestershire, England, d.c. 1706 Providence,
RI m. Sarah Baker. The descendants of
these two matched on 23 of 24 markers which tells us that there is a 50%
probability that the most recent common ancestor is 17 generations or
less. The descendant of Peter Roberts d.
1706 RI was a 10th generation descendant meaning their common ancestor may be farther
back. However, since Peter was an
immigrant to the <st1:place w:st="on">New World</st1:place> it is more likely
he was a descendant of either Peter or Mark Roberts mentioned below:<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> "The first record of
the Roberts family of <st1:state w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Rhode Island</st1:place></st1:state>
found in volume I, p. 570, the book of deeds. A house and lot in <st1:city w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Providence</st1:place></st1:city> and right in
the commons of the plantation of <st1:city w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Providence</st1:place></st1:city>
was bequeathed by Christopher Unthank to Thomas Roberts, June 1663. Thomas
Roberts died about 1679, and his administrator, Captain Richard Smith,
represented his nephew and heir, Christopher Roberts, of <st1:city w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Arlington</st1:place></st1:city>, <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:city w:st="on">Gloucestershire</st1:city>, <st1:country-region w:st="on">England</st1:country-region></st1:place>,

There was recorded <st1:date day="6" month="6" w:st="on" year="1681">June 6,
1681</st1:date>, by Captain Smith, as attorney for Christopher Roberts, the
title to four acres laid out to Thomas Roberts, deceased. (Book of Deeds I, p.

There is reason to believe that they were brothers, nephews or sons of
Christopher, and that Peter had the land at <st1:city w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Providence</st1:place></st1:city>. Mark Roberts married, <st1:date day="1" month="1" w:st="on" year="1682">January 1, 1682</st1:date>, Warwick,

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">“34/37 You share the same
surname (or a variant) with another male and you mismatch by three 'points' --a
34/37 match. Because of the volatility within some of the markers this is
slightly tighter then being 11/12 or 23/25 and it's most likely that you
matched 24/25 or 25/25 on previous Y-DNA tests. Your mismatch will most often
be found within DYS 439 or DYS 385 A, 385 B,389-1 and 389-2 from our first
panel of 12 markers, or within the second panel: DYS #'s 458, 459 a, 459b, 449,
or within 464 a-d. If you matched exactly on previous tests you probably have a
mismatch at DYS 576, 570, CDYa or CDYb in our newest panel of markers. Your
mismatch is likely within the range of most well established surname lineages
in <st1:place w:st="on">Western Europe</st1:place>. “ [<a href="http://www.familytreedna.com/GDRules_37.html">http://www.familytreedna.com/GDRules_37.html</a>]<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><u>Unique Characteristics of DYS #439</u>“The
unique characteristic of marker DYS #439 has to do with its rapid mutational
rate. About 25% of the mutations in the first 12 markers take place in marker
#439...thus indicating a faster mutation rate than most of the others.
Therefore, if you find a mismatch on marker #439 between 2 participants, and
all other markers match, then you have a very good likelihood of a connection
and can discount the mismatch of this marker in your analysis. Your conclusions
may also be strengthened by good research and documentation if it indicates
possible relationships between the two participants.” [<a href="http://www.hilldna.com/mutations.html">http://www.hilldna.com/mutations.html</a>]</span></blockquote>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><u>DYS 570 & CDYb</u>“Note
that the 37-marker scores … do not include markers DYS607, DYS576, DYS570,
CDYa, or CDYb ( from FTDNA's third panel of markers 26-37 ). These markers have
very high mutation rates and no modals are to be had at this time. They are
very useful for comparison between persons who are suspected to be related but
they are not very useful for identifying one's subclade.” [<a href="http://www.lrbcg.com/jtCullen/CullenDNA.htm">http://www.lrbcg.com/jtCullen/CullenDNA.htm</a>] </span></blockquote>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">William
Roberts married Ann, widow of Andrew Sherwood
<st1:date day="23" month="3" w:st="on" year="1762">23 Mar 1762</st1:date>. Ann's first child, Daniel Sherwood was born
1746 placing her marriage about 1745 and her birth sometime before 1727 if we
assume she was age 18 when she wed Andrew.
William and Ann Robert's last child was Sarah born in 1770 indicating
when Ann reached the end of her child bearing years at around age 50 so I
estimate she was born 1720-1727.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">If
William was about the same age or perhaps younger, his age is bracketed between
1720-1740. Peter and Mark Roberts married
in 1682 and 1685, respectively. This
means there were only 2-3 generations between William Roberts of <st1:street w:st="on"><st1:address w:st="on">Danbury CT</st1:address></st1:street> and
Mark/Peter of <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:city w:st="on">Providence</st1:city> <st1:state w:st="on">RI</st1:state></st1:place> meaning that William would be the

IllinoisThe purpose of this post is to document what known about James Mason of St. Clair Co. Illinois and make an appeal to his descendants to have their autosomal DNA tested in the hopes of identifying a Mason segment that can be used to find his ancestors.<br />
<br />
<h4>

<li>Lyman Elbert Mason m. Maude Miller</li>
</ul>
<h4>

<h4>
Y-DNA Testing</h4>
My brother submitted a sample for the 67 marker DNA test several years ago. What this told us was that the Mason line was of Anglo-Saxon descent.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAQPPGVGttSrj9UaA8ePeZ2GPoE0HDZgnxeHfrv9XNGmOiCVs_ppzc3qg6nAJYvC-7J_grPjHq9SDyMZfrzg5Vhrx0_cWs5kg6yrjw8cpjhEqlO4GYO-eHhx8jK3Z6zPgcnu4EM0CaToPB/s1600/Harry's+Y-DNA.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAQPPGVGttSrj9UaA8ePeZ2GPoE0HDZgnxeHfrv9XNGmOiCVs_ppzc3qg6nAJYvC-7J_grPjHq9SDyMZfrzg5Vhrx0_cWs5kg6yrjw8cpjhEqlO4GYO-eHhx8jK3Z6zPgcnu4EM0CaToPB/s1600/Harry's+Y-DNA.png" height="225" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
However, we were quite surprised when the test turned up absolutely nothing in the way of matching known Mason lines. I thought this sounded fishy but we had the privilege of visiting another branch of the family (4th cousin) and I was amazed at how much he resembled my father so we thought if we were patient, there would eventually be results. <br />
<br />
However, after several years it was time to consider another approach so we had his DNA deep clade tested and found that he had the U198 mutation. According the the <a href="http://meekdna.com/U198dna/S29_5.html" target="_blank">U198 project information</a> this is uncommon and occurs in less than 2% of the male population from England.<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"On the basis of the samples collected, U198 is found in The Netherlands,
Germany, Russia, Denmark and Northern England (which was settled by
Angles from what is now Denmark). Drawing on more detailed data for Britain, James Wilson reports that
U198 is a strongly Anglian marker, concentrated in the East of England,
but also found in South-East Scotland, where Angles also settled. However preliminary results from the Old Norway Project show that U198 is found in Norway and Sweden as well as Denmark, so some caution is needed in its interpretation. It could have reached Russia with Rus<a href="http://haplogroupi2b1ismine.wordpress.com/the-germani-germanic-peoples-origins-and-history/vikings.shtml#Kievan"></a> from Sweden, or much later German immigrants" From<span style="font-size: small;"> <a href="http://haplogroupi2b1ismine.wordpress.com/the-germani-germanic-peoples-origins-and-history/" target="_blank">The Germani: Germanic Peoples Origins and History</a></span></blockquote>
Recently, a <a href="https://sites.google.com/site/wheatonsurname/beginners-guide-to-genetic-genealogy/lesson-14-more-with-the-y" target="_blank">link</a> to information on the rarity of Y-Halotypes was posted to one of the DNA groups and by those calculations we get a value of 906 indicating rare marker values. It is not surprising that we have not found any Y-DNA matches.<br />
<br />
<b><i>As interesting as all this is, it does not address the immediate problem of identifying James Mason's parents so the next step is to identify as many of James Mason's descendants as possible and urge them to take the autosomal DNA test at <a href="https://www.23andme.com/" target="_blank">23andMe</a> or <a href="https://my.familytreedna.com/" target="_blank">FTDNA</a>. It is hoped that with enough test subjects, we can identify the Mason specific DNA segments that can be used to trace the family farther back.</i></b><br />

<h4>
Paper Trail</h4>
The earliest record I have found of James and Jane/Jean Mason is 1808
in St. Clair Co. Illinois when they joined the Bethel Baptist church at
Richland along with John Steel and his wife. J Steel was enumerated
next to him in the 1810 census.<br />

The 1810 St. Clair Co. Illinois census listed six daughters and three
sons for J Mason. His three sons, Bennett, William and James as well
as his wife, Jane are also named in his will signed on Nov 30 1815. His
daughters' names were reconstructed from marriage records as he was the
only Mason in the county during the 1820's. <br /><br /> 1810 St. Clair Co.

He is buried in Mason Cemetery which we visited in 1998. It is located on section 30 of Englemann township on a corner of the land James Mason originally purchased in 1814 and willed to his son James who passed it on to his son Absalom. There are at least three generations of Mason descendants buried there. <br />

James Mason's son, James' stone was buried under loose dirt and his grandson Absalom Mason's stone was a few feet away. The stone of John Mason that was referenced by the St. Clair Co. IL DAR was not to be found nor was Jane Mason's stone. However, I was able to determine where they once stood as the bases are still there. It appears that someone removed the stones. I am thankful that the DAR made a record of it in the 1930's. The DAR listed a John Mason d. 12-6-1815 aged about 75 years "Amongst the earliest settlers of this portion of Illinois, his grave was also the first in this last resting place of the dead." Some of these stones were very hard to read and being the oldest it must have been faded as this had to be James Mason who wrote his will on Nov 30, 1815 and his age about age 45 estimated from the 1810 census.<br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">What I know about Mary Ann Wiley is that her maternal halo group is T1a1 thanks to my second cousin participating in DNA testing.</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">She was born June 16, 1806 in Kentucky and she married Reuben Brown sometime around 1826 given the age of their oldest son, Isaac b. January 9, 1827 Illinois.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 12pt;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Her husband, Reuben died in March 1840 in Sangamon Co. Illinois and Mary is enumerated there on the
1840 census with 9 children. Reuben’s probate papers also list his wife as
Mary with 9 children. Mary moved to Pike Co. Illinois prior to 1850 and
can be found living next to her daughter, Ellen, wife of James Robertson
(Robinson). By 1860, the widow Mary and her children had moved to Grundy
Co. Missouri with daughter, Ellen and her husband, James Robinson. <br />
<br />
An article in The History of Grundy Co. Missouri written while James Robinson
was still living documents his wife’s birth in Sangamon Co. Illinois, his
marriage in Pike Co. Illinois and subsequent move to Grundy Co. Missouri.
Census data confirms this information and provides the names of Reuben &
Mary’s children. Mary Brown died Oct 13, 1876 and is buried in Lindley
Cemetery, Sullivan Co. Missouri which is located just across border from Grundy
Co. Missouri beside her son, Isaac. Her eldest son, Reuben’s death certificate
listed his mother’s maiden name as Wiley.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Speculation</span></h4>
<div style="margin-bottom: 12pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I have DNA matches with two people, one on 23andMe and one on FTDNA that are descendants of the Wiley family from Montgomery Co. Illinois who also belong to </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">maternal halo group T1a1.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 12pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I have not been able to find a Wiley connection in Sangamon Co. IL but Montgomery Co. Illinois is just south of Sangamon county. After Reuben's death, Mary moved her family to Pike Co. IL sometime before 1850 and where there was a David Wiley on the census in 1840. Given David's age 30-40 (b.1804 per 1850 census) he may be a brother to Mary. Also, David is living next to the Breeden family and Mary's eldest daughter, Hannah married Simpson Breeden on Dec 24, 1846 in Pike Co. Illinois.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 12pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The Wiley family in Montgomery Co. Illinois came from Warren Co. Kentucky where there is a record of Benjamin Wiley and his children:</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> </span></div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="margin-bottom: 12pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">10 November 1819 James Wiley, Elijah Wiley, Zachariah Wiley, Nancy Wiley, David Wiley, Sarah Wiley, Bitsey Wiley, Polly Wiley, Ahalia Wiley, and Lucinda Wiley, heirs of Benjamin Wiley deceased, by Alexander M. Robinson, Commissioner of Circuit Court of Warren County, to Daniel Bowling, 200 acres South of Green River.</span></blockquote>
<div style="margin-bottom: 12pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Note the name David and Polly (nickname for Mary) in the record. I think
this is our Mary Wiley's father but I am still looking for a second confirmation
on a shared DNA segment.</span></div>

Firefox seems to work best for installing the application on a Mac per user feedback.</span></span></div>

<ul>
<li style="margin-left: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">
First create a profile in Genome Mate </span></li>
<ul>
<li style="margin-left: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Profiles > Add new profile</span></li>
</ul>
</ul>
<ul>
<li style="margin-left: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Put in a name, any name will do, but</span></li>
<ul>
<li style="margin-left: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">
You are a good choice for the profile person. </span></li>
<li style="margin-left: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">If your going to use data from 23andMe for the profile person, the profile name MUST match the 23andMe name.</span></li>
<li style="margin-left: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">
I also have my sister on a separate profile as I have FTDNA data for her.</span></li>
<li style="margin-left: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I will add my uncle as a profile person when I get his FTDNA results</span></li>
<li style="margin-left: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">One profile is good to start. It is easy to add others once you know the drill.</span></li>
</ul>
</ul>
<ul>
<li style="margin-left: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Load a gedcom file for each profile if you have one. If not just continue.</span></li>
<ul>
<li style="margin-left: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">
The gedcom file can be all of your relatives and more</span></li>
<li style="margin-left: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Genome
Mate will ask you for the name to associate with the profile person,
and will strip out all but the profile person's direct ancestors.</span></li>
</ul>
</ul>
<h3>
<b><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Data Sources</span></b></h3>
<div>
<b><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></b></div>
<div>
<ul>
<li><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">There are three main sources of data: FTDNA, 23andMe, and GedMatch. </span></li>
<li><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">You can download in any
order. I prefer FTDNA first because I get the most data for the least
effort, then 23andMe, and finally GedMatch.</span></li>
<li><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">If you have known relatives tested on 23andMe, it makes sense to do 23andMe first.</span></li>

<ul>
<li style="margin-left: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">From Genome Mate do 3 uploads of data:</span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li style="margin-left: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">
Import Data > Select Data Match Source > FTDNA Family Finder Chromosome Browser CSV file</span></li>
<ul>
<li style="margin-left: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Follow the directions for downloading the CSV file or use file from DNAgedcom</span></li>
<li style="margin-left: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Upload it to Genome Mate following the directions from above.</span></li>
<li style="margin-left: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">This is the actual DNA data.</span></li>
</ul>

<ul>
<li style="margin-left: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The ICW file is worth doing. </span></li>
<li style="margin-left: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Just be aware it can sometimes take several hours for DNAgedcom to generate it. </span></li>

<div class="im">
<br />
<br />
<li style="margin-left: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Choose a Relative Name in the list of matches. </span></li>
<br />
<ul>
<li style="margin-left: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Choose one who matches you on more than one chromosome. </span></li>
<li style="margin-left: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Right click on it. </span></li>
<li style="margin-left: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Esc to go back.</span></li>
</ul>
</div>
<li style="margin-left: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Some
Relatives will have a small symbol (Mark ICW segments) to the left of
their name. Hover (do not click) your mouse over the symbol. <br />
</span></li>
<ul>
<li style="margin-left: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">A series of colored bars will show you the relatives who have "in common with" the one you are hovering over. </span></li>
<li style="margin-left: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">These people are related but necessarily on the currently selected segment.</span></li>
</ul>
<div class="im">
<br />
<br />
<li style="margin-left: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Some ICW group symbols are in orange. <br />
</span></li>
<br />
<ul>
<li style="margin-left: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The orange color means that the
segment crosses a centromere, so the meaningful length is much shorter
than the displayed length. </span></li>
<li style="margin-left: 15px;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">If you hover over the symbol, it will show the length of the centromere. </span></li>

words of wisdom on creating backup files cannot be overemphasized.

I intended to document my journey through the exploration of DNA genealogical research but that journey has been so fascinating that I was completely distracted by oh so many things. In the mean time, I have confirmed some of my ancestors whose documentation was sketchy, broken through one brick wall and have clues for breaking another down. <br />
<br />
However, the purpose of this post is to describe how to use one of the best tools around for collecting 23andMe data, the Chrome addon <a href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/529andyou/nekcpognkifhchlmgddjajmaiplidfhn/details?hl=en" target="_blank">529andYou</a> by Roger Woods. If used correctly, not only will it retain match data but it can be used to identify in common with (ICW) data for each relative.<br />
<br />
1. Skip this step if you already have the Chrome browser. Click <a href="https://www.google.com/intl/en/chrome/browser/" target="_blank">here</a> to get Chrome.<br />
<br />
2. Click <a href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/529andyou/nekcpognkifhchlmgddjajmaiplidfhn/details?hl=en" target="_blank">here</a> to get the 529andYou Chrome addon. Be sure to select yes to create a database when asked.<br />
<br />

I use this tool for 23andMe data collection every week or so then download the data into a CSV file and import it into <a href="http://genomemate.org/" target="_blank">Genome Mate</a>. For each profile I have in Genome Mate, I select the profile name and click on the Download CSV file. Then I select Show matches for All and download a CSV file that I use to update ICW for 23andMe matches in Genome Mate.</div>

If you have a lot of relatives on the list, it takes a while to update the database the first time but it is well worth it as later it only takes a few minutes to get updates when new sharing invitations are accepted. Of all the ways of collecting 23andMe data, this is my tool of choice.</div>

However, both of my parents passed away several years ago so it is a little more difficult.<br />
<br />
Fortunately, one of my first discoveries on 23andMe were two closely related cousins. One was the great granddaughter of my maternal aunt (1st cousin, twice removed) and the second was the granddaughter of my maternal grandfather's sister (2nd cousin). Plus, a 3rd cousin on my father's side of the family had already done much analysis on my paternal great grandmother's family. Those matches have been invaluable in distinguishing the maternal vs. paternal.<br />
<br />
For example, on chromosome 5, there are six cousins on the same segment. I didn't display all the relationships between each cousin but in the first set, everyone matches each other. Since I know both Leah and Shirley are cousins on my maternal side, I know that I am related to B J on the maternal side and perhaps farther back than my great grandparents because the segment length is much smaller.<br />
<br />
<u>Set 1 - Maternal side match</u><br />
Rebecca vs. B J 5 162000000 167000000 7.0 cM 1030 <br />
Rebecca vs. Leah 5 163000000 172000000 17.9 cM 2420 (Maternal grandparents in common)<br />
Harry vs. Shirley 5 167000000 180000000 28.4 cM 3035 (Maternal great grandparents in common)<br />
<br />
Since the cousins in set 2 also all match each other but none of my cousins in set 1, we can conclude that we are related ton my paternal side.<br />
<br />
<u>Set 2- Paternal side match</u><br />
Rebecca vs. Christopher 5 171000000 175000000 11.4 cM 1160 <br />
Rebecca vs. Walter 5 171000000 177000000 14.4 cM 1418 <br />
Rebecca vs. Willis 5 171000000 177000000 14.3 cM 1406 <br />
<br />
While I don't have the common ancestor for everyone here yet, I am able to eliminate half of my family tree and I can tell anyone matching on this segment where to look.<br />
<br />
I find that associating that one little bit of DNA to one of my remote ancestors exciting. Early on I was contacted by another cousin and found that we were related to each other on a small segment through my 4th great grandfather. How cool is that!<br />

The good news is that we share 57.2% of our DNA so I can no longer tease him that his father was from Mars. It was disappointing to find out that while 23andMe gave his halo group to the same level as Family Tree Maker and for a lot less money, it does not offer comparison on the Y chromosome. What is good is that I now have 42.8% more DNA from our parents to use in comparisons.<br />
<br />
<strong>So you have the results back, what next?</strong> <br />
<br />
Click on "Family & Friends" at top of the 23andMe home page. This will take you to a page called "DNA Relatives" which is a pretty cool list of all the people who have a match with you on one or more DNA segments sorted by predicted relationship. <br />
<br />
Some people have made their profiles public so you can see what they have written about their family, their surnames, their family locations and a primitive family tree. However, most people in the list have not made their information public to 23andMe members and even those who have, often do not have much information listed. It is not possible to compare DNA results with any of your cousins until they agree to share genomes with you. <br />
<br />
If you have a "Public Match", click on the cousin's name then click on the link "Invite (cousin name) to share genomes". I like to then click on "Customize Message" and include some of my family information. If it is not a public match, then click on the link next to the name "Send an Introduction". This will format a message for you and I suggest you also add some of your family information. Be sure to click on the button labeled "Share my name and profile and also extend an invitation to share genomes at Basic Level" so that the genome invitation is also sent.<br />
<br />
This is quite a tedious process as I had over a 1000 matches and had to send an introduction each one individually and each invitation was either accepted, declined or ignored. Every time I get an invitation declined, it hurts my feelings just a little bit but making contact with new cousins is so rewarding. Statistically, 1 in 4 invitations are accepted, very few declined and the rest are pending.<br />
<br />
<strong>An invitation is accepted, what now?</strong><br />
<br />
Select "My Results" from the top of the 23andMe home page. Select "Ancestry Tools" then select "Family Inheritance: Advanced". This tool will let you compare your DNA results to any of your cousins with whom you are sharing genomes and also compare their results with each other.<br />
<br />
Select the cousin for comparison and click "Compare". This will show a pretty cool graph of how you match up to 3 cousins on each chromosome. You can then select "View in a table" or "Download a table" of the results:<br />

<br />
<strong>What do I do with the matching data?</strong><br />
<br />
The easy answer is to find your most recent common ancestor with each cousin but it is easier said than done. This is the part where all of the old fashion family research that you have compiled over the years comes into play. Make contact with your cousins matching on each segment and try to find out how you are related.<br />
<br />
One thing to keep in mind is that 23andMe does not know if the DNA segment on which you match is from your maternal or paternal side of the family so if you make a comparison between cousins and they match each other on the same segment that they match you then it is likely that they belong to the same side of your family.<br />
<br />
It is very rewarding to find out that this little snippet of DNA is associated with a remote ancestor and makes me feel connected to my family however remote.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10353651318664458438noreply@blogger.com0
