Beryl -- If I might offer a suggestion: We had a similar problem on the Gordon side. A person with documented ties to a New England Gordon was unwilling to go...
I was wondering if the Gordons who are part of the Douglas/Gordon mystery have identified their most recent common ancestor (MRCA) among them. Is there a...
Jane, I think most of us 16 Gordon descendents that match have a common ancestor as brothers Jock and Tam Gordon (about 1360?) and I am pretty sure most of...
Gordon DNA participants and researchers, Happy New Year!! It is looking to be a big year for the Gordon DNA project already and if you have not visited our...
Hello Gordon DNA researchers. I would like to encourage all who have not upgraded to 25 or 37 markers to please do so. That is how we will be able to be...
I have 37/37 matching DNA markers in the largest Gordon group. I have researched Virginia Gordon's from my father, William Lynwood Gordon (1900-1950) back to...
I'm happy to see a new member to our group. Things have been rather quiet lately. Eventually we should find a Gordon who can identify a link with a Douglas....
Good question, Beryl. I too, have pondered the benefits of the 59-marker test. I am still not sure. Looks like all the new markers are black, which probably...
Hi Tei I plan to have my husbands DNA Upgraded to 59 markers. Maybe we can see what the difference is in the Gordon-Douglas DNA. Peg From: John G Douglas To:...
As I understand the situation, the markers on the 59 marker upgrade are all black at present because it has not yet been determined which ones mutate more...
Many Sermons have been preached and Many books have been written, But nothing speaks louder than our very own DNA. Every thought, every action, and every deed,...
I noticed that we have the results of a Douglas and a Gordon extended DNA markers, i.e., 67 markers. Does anyone have any thoughts on the results? I'm not...
Jane, I have updated our Gordon DNA webpage and included some of my thoughts on these new 67-marker results. Cut and paste the following link into your browser...
Tei I notice that the close matches between the Douglases and Gordons have held up even under 65 markers! Have you been able to get a ftDNATIP calculation on...
Beryl, I am assuming you intended to say 67 markers? The webpage has just been updated and uploaded again. My analysis is based on best information currently...
Jane - here is the ftDNATIP report on the match after 67 markers. FTDNATiP™ Report Family Tree DNA Time Predictor* Version 1.2 - Patent Pending In comparing...

Hi. I notice that the last post on this site was in August, so perhaps there hasn't been any further information since then about the Douglas/Gordon...
That connection with the Gordons does seem like a bit of a coincidence given the DNA results! I wouldn't plave too much value on the 12 marker match with the ...
As I said in my first post, I have a 11 out of 12 match and a 35 out of 37 match with the Gordons who match exactly with some of the Douglas results, with the...
Let me explain a few things to you: 1) A 12-marker test is 99% useless unless you have a 12/12 match. This indicates a positive relationship with the person...
Since you seem to have considerable difficulty in comprehending what you read, Jimbo, I'll reiterate that my Y-DNA results produced a 35 out of 37 match with...
Like many in this group, I have been interested in Y-DNA testing for genealogical purposes for more than three years. I belong to several mailing lists which...
After reading this piece of nonsense, I'm really rooting for the 5% possibility the FTDNA folks gave me that I don't share a common ancestor with Gordons. ...
