From Dr D Digs Up Ancestors

Well, as we head towards the Mayan end of the calendar and science astronomy saying the world and planets will aling with a black hole deep in space, we have a major upheaval in the world of genetic genealogy too. 

To say the least this is an interesting month.

Dr D Digs up Ancestors has written a wonderful blog on the earth shatter change in genetic genealogy.  Here are a few of his observations and a link to his blog so you can read it all.

Seismic Shift in Genetic Genealogy

It seems like the entire landscape of genetic genealogy has shifted in the last week. What magnitude on the Richter Scale were the shakes that led to this amount of widespread and almost simultaneous change? Only time will tell as to which of theses events will have the most lasting impact.

After discussing the changes at major companies like 23andme, Familytreedna, and National Genographic, he goes on to talk about how  these changes will effect the results we have already determined.

Although, it is a blog for the specific surname Dowell, his incite is informative.  Go read his blog, follow him as he tends to give general information too.

Skin cells - tell all

DNA's Genetic Mosaic Revealed By Skin Cells

There is an interesting report at http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/releases/252994.php

Here is just part of it....
"The prevailing wisdom has been that every cell in the body contains identical DNA. However, a new study of stem cells derived from the skin has found that genetic variations are widespread in the body's tissues, a finding with profound implications for genetic screening, according to Yale School of Medicine researchers."

Lately  there have been very interesting advances with Stem Cells. We have the future to look forward to.

About.com Genealogy

Hi,
Has anyone signed up for about.com Genealogy?  Kimberly Powell writes some interesting and informative articles on genealogy.

Here she gives you a challenge (Copied verbatim)
We've all used census records to research our families, but have we really gleaned everything possible from these records? Have we found each family member in every available census during their lifetime? Included state and local census records in our research plan? Used all available census substitutes, including city directories, tax lists, and voting lists? My challenge to you this week is to revisit your research on at least one ancestral family and make sure you've covered *all* of your census bases!
 
Now this is an excellent idea. Have you found records for each of your families..?? Pick one and start working.. I suggest that you go sign up for her newsletters
 
 
 You can also follow her on facebook and twitter

Happy hunting

DNA tests - what are they?


Hi,
I have created a FREE website to help people understand DNA testing better and I thought I would share it with all of you.

Genetic Genealogy - http://www.geneticsand.us

As a DNA project administrator for some surname projects at FamilyTreeDNA.com I like to share information about testing. If any of you who have tested share any of my project surnames, your welcome to join my groups as well. You can do this via the join button on your personal page at FTDNA.

Now to explain the testing, you have to have a little  understanding of  DNA. Each cell of the body has 23 pairs of chromosomes, in the cell nucleus.  In the cell  but not in the nucleus  is mtdna. Notice here, the 23 pairs of chromosomes do  not include  mtdna.  


When, the egg is fertilized the egg has 23 chromosomes and the sperm has 23 chromosomes. One pair of the chromosomes is used to indicate the sex of a child. The egg always carries a X chromosome and the rest are autosomal chromosomes. The sperm carries either the Y or the X chromosome and the rest are autosomal chromosomes.  Now if it is a boy child, you have a X and a Y for the pair of sex chromosomes.. Being there is only one “Y”… it cannot combine or recombine with every generation.  So the Y chromosome basically stays the same with few mutations (changes)  over generations. So a man’s parental (father/son) lineage can be proven by the results of the markers used in the Y-STR test.
Here sperm is larger then normal

There are different markers used for different tests. The markers used for Y-DNA testing normally are called Short Tandem  Repeats (STRs) and single-nucleotide polymorphism  (SNPs – pronounced Snips). SNPs normally are used for population migration. Where STRs are used for current genetic genealogy (basically).  

single-nucleotide polymorphism:
short tandem repeat:

There are three basic tests for genetic genealogy
 
1.    the testing of Y-DNA, this test uses the STR marker and defines the direct paternal line. 
To define:  it is your father his father his father back a few hundred thousand years or more.  
 More information below.
 
2.    MTDNA  this test uses the SNP markers and is used to define the direct maternal line. 
To define: this is the child, the mother, her mother, her mother  back a few hundred thousand years or more.   
More information below.
Only your differences from the Cainbridge Standard are reported for this test. Although, 
there are different levels to testing the MTDNA you do not get the entire picture with out the Full test. 
More information below.
 
3. atDNA tests the autosomal chromosomes, it uses the SNP markers. Every person has autosomal 
chromosomes to include the individuals who provided the Y chromosome and the mtDNA, 
so atdna comes from both the Maternal lineage and the Paternal lineages – Everyone in your ancestry. 
The test shows segments on the different chrosomes , that you share with others indicating a relationship. 
With this test the terms IBD and IBS are used. IBD means identical by descent and IBS identical by state.
 
atDNA  consists of the 22 autosomal chromosome pairs, these are part of the 23 pairs of nucleus 
chromosomes.   The 23rd pair is the sex indicator pair and consists of the XX for females and 
the YX for males. 
 
MTDNA  In human beings, the mitochondrial DNA is a single, small, circular chromosome. 
It is not part of the 23 pairs of nucleus chromosomes. Many of them live inside the cell but not in the 
enclosed nucleus. They have a different job. MTDNA directs the creation and use of energy in each 
individual cell.
 
Where nucleus chromosomes have 3billion, 300million plus a few hundred thousand base pairs; 
MTDNA only has about  16,569 base pairs
The cell nucleus
The X chromosome is tested by some companies at the same time as the atDNA. It uses the SNP marker and althought is part of the sex indicator pair  does not define the maternal line. The X passes back and forth between a man and a woman, its line of descent is different and needs a chart to help you understand who you got it from. Like the “Y” and “MTDNA”, it has a particular path. See the X chart here:  http://geneticsand.us/x-ch.htm

All chromosomes, the 23 pairs and MTDNA, have STR and SNP markers. In the testings,  paticular parts of the chromosomes are being tested; thus the base pairs being used have names and numbers. .


There are many other types of DNA testing. To name a few: Paternity Testing or CODIS 
(criminal ID) Testing.  Although not typically thought of as a genealogical test, they both aim to identify 
relatives through STR testing of autosomal chromosomes.

The test to use depends on the information you want to find out. I suggest that you join the Newbie DNA list (YahooGroups). Then  ask questions and then decide what test you want to take. The only real complaints I have seen about genetic genealogy have come from misunderstanding what a test will revel. So ask questions, decide what answers you want then decide what test to use.


In addition for the Y chromosome DNA test.
The first to understand is that to find a Y-DNA match, the haplogroup of the pair of results being compared must match.. Example a man who has R1b haplogroup is not related  (with in the time frame of the use of  surnames about 100 – 2000 yrs)  to a man who has a Ib1 haplogroup.

Hapolgroups, depending on the testing company can be estimated by the first 12 STR markers of a Y-STR  marker test. (normally test names are  just referred to by the number of markers tested as in 12  –25-36-44-67) To actually prove a haplogroup or to find a subclade of a haplogroup; a haplogroup test  normally referred to as a deep clade test should be preformed. Also some companies test for particular  haplogroup markers.

Haplogroups, are the identifying terminology, for where you sit on the tree of humanity, it starts off with  haplogroup Adam.. and after changes (mutations) in his SNPs a new haplogroup is created.. so over the  few  hundreds of thousands  years, developed  many different haplogroups. Some are descent and some are  lateral  developments.  That is why a man who has R1b and a man I1b are thousands of years apart from a common ancestor.
Questions? Ask.. (oh, male haplogroups are named differently from the mtDNA haplogroups)
Now getting down to the very easiest, the Y-STR test used for genealogy. I said before that they are  basically referred to (or called/named) by the numbers.  The 37 marker, YSTR test is the one I ask the  members of my surname projects to use.  It has enough Fast mutating and slow mutating STR markers to  make it a good identifying amount, the more markers the better but normally 37 is enough. What they do  here is introduce a primer to the dna and count the reactions (spikes). The amount of reactions at a particular  place (marker) is the result (there is an official name but it is still just a result)

To prove or disprove a relationship you compare the amount of the result to the result of the other person.   So example: man A -  marker DYS393=12; man B – DYS393=14  the steps of difference (genetic distance  - GD) here is 2, all differences are accumulative.  At 37 markers, in my opinion; more then 4-5  steps of difference between two men makes the common ancestor before of the use of surnames..



 Next is MTDNA – 
mtdna is a chromosome but not part of the 23 pairs. It has a different job, it is primarily  to produce and  direct energy for the cell. Its mutations are very slow. A test of the MTDNA can have  medical information.

MTDNA is in both the cell of the egg and the sperm. But the mtdna of the sperm is primarily there to give  energy to the sperm to swim to the egg and impregnate it.  Normally all the mtdna in the sperm is used up, when it isn’t the egg destroys the remainder. Thus you inherit the mtdna in your cells from only your mother.  That is the reason it can be used to trace the maternal lineage. MTDNA, is different from the other  chromosomes in that instead of being a string it is circular, and it is normally tested in HRV1 and HRV2 and  the coding zone. I was told HRV1 and 2 start  basically if you were looking at a clock  - at 11:59 and end at  12:06 the rest is coding zone..

It is hard to use MTDNA for genealogy  because the maiden name changes with each generation where a  man’s surname is passed  to each generation. I said hard, but it is not impossible, there have been many  positive results.  You look for matching maiden names  and area locations.. Then you put the findings  together. William Hurst of the Genealogy-DNA mailing list at rootsweb.com is the local expert.

When testing MTDNA the results are very different from what you get with Y-DNA testing. There is a  standard called Cambridge Reference Sequence, your results are compared to this and only the differences  are reported. So in this case you compare differences.


Now lets discuss the newest testing.. X and autosomal testing.
First, you inherit atdna from all your past ancestors, second you might think you inherit 50% from each  parent. NOPE but, it averages out to 50%… since the X chromosome and the autosomal chromosomes  combine and recombine  randomly, (x to x; auto to auto) the  further away from the common ancestor the lower the chance you have  a measurable segment remaining from that ancestor.

One problem that I see with this testing is that a negative result of a measurable segment from a common  ancestor does not mean your not related, just that the part inherited is not measurable at this time.  (You  never know – this is cutting edge science, five years ago.. this testing was not even imagined.)

Now here is some additional information from some very knowledgeable people..

Females have two X chromosomes, one inherited from the father and the other  from the mother, so a connection could be from either side of the family.
Males have one X chromosome, inherited from the mother. SMGF has a nice  animation showing the inheritance pathway:
http://www.smgf.org/education/animations/x_chromosome.jspx
 
Since not all ancestors can make a contribution to the X, you can eliminate  at least some of them as possibilities. See the diagrams on Blaine  Bettinger's site:
http://www.thegeneticgenealogist.com/2008/12/21/unlocking-the-genealogical-secrets-of-the-x-chromosome/
 
http://www.thegeneticgenealogist.com/2009/01/12/more-x-chromosome-charts/
 
Note that the percentages are averages. A man's X chromosome can be exactly  the same as his maternal grandfather, exactly the same as his maternal  grandmother, or a mixture of the two, which works out to be average of 50%. I  find the demo Mendel family at 23andMe helpful in visualizing this. There are  three grandchildren and three grandparents, so you can look at different  combinations. If they don't show up in your list of people you're sharing with,  go to Account | Sharing | Example Profiles. Or create a guest membership.

It will help you to find the common ancestor by phasing  the X (in other words, figure out who contributed what).  This page helps tell how to do that:
http://www.isogg.org/xjourney1.html

 
If your genealogy program can print an ahnentafel chart, I've prepared a  file with the relevant ahnentafel numbers. Females should start the ahnentafel  with themselves; males should start with their mothers. Then you can go  through the ahnentafel report and delete the records of the people who could
not be the source of your X.

I hope this helps you in understand testing, and that if you test you enjoy the venture.

Eggs Trade Genes



The Scientist Daily is another excellent on line magazine...

 Not this kind of Egg!

 



Eggs Trade Genes

By Ruth Williams
Swapping chromosomes from one human egg to another could eliminate mitochondrial DNA mutations that cause disease.


When thinking about using MTDNA for genealogy.. wonder would this change the person's MTDNA haplogroup?


 What is your opinion?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


 

EMP missles?

SmartPlanet Daily
an excellent on line magazine!

 
Boeing is working on a missile that uses microwaves to target electronics, without harming people.

Electrical Magnetic Pulse??  if your not protected for that will wipe out all electrical equipment.. Computers smart phones... ect... lights.. I'd rather have that type of war then nuclear warheads..

Read about it...


Interesting...it sounds like that new TV series revolution??!! come to life!

Paisley Caves, south central Oregon -

Clovis, Western Stemmed and Paisley Caves

By , About.com Guide

 Pre-Clovis appear to have been more broadly-based hunter-gatherers, and it is hypothesized that they entered the continents along the Pacific coastline some 15,000 years ago. One of the problems with pre-Clovis is there hasn't been a recognizable lithic technology that looks much different than non-Clovis Paleoindian and American Archaic. What the discovery of Western Stemmed at Paisley means is, maybe that's because Pre-Clovis wasn't really that much different from American Archaic, and maybe that's because Pre-Clovis is ancestral to American Archaic, and non-Clovis Paleoindian, and (oops) Clovis Paleoindian, too.

Researchers find clue to male infertility

A study led by Dr. Amy Johnson, a postdoctoral research associate working under the direction of institute director Dr. Steven Zeisel, has found that a genetic variant, called a single nucleotide polymorphism or SNP, is associated with human sperm motility. Between 5 percent and 10 percent of men are affected by this variant.
The SNP commonly occurs within the gene for human choline dehyrdogenase and can influence the amount of choline someone needs to eat. Choline, a nutrient used to form cell membranes, is found in eggs, meats and wheat germ, among other foods.

Very Interesting and you can read the full article at:

Note from my sister Lolita G. Swift as told by our Mother.
Sometime between the age of 16 when she left home and the age of 19 when she married our father: Mom was hired by Hallmark cards as an artist, but quit after one week; they had put her into a room by herself and she couldn't think of anything to draw.
She also auditioned for a chorus line.. Mom was so flat chested she wanting to make a good impression stuffed her bra with tissue and while she was dancing the tissue came flying out, She didn't get the job..
Going back in time to when Mom was in school She was accepted and attended the first school in Oklahoma for advanced studies. It was called a class for gifted students. Education: High School, Some college courses

1959/1960 She was president of the Grays Harbor (Washington State) Chapter of young Democrats. She met John F. and Jacky Kennedy, while he was in Washington state campaining.
She moved to San Jose, CA in about 1960 where she worked at Hewlett- Packard Company doing final engraving on instruments. She bought a house in San Jose, CA, where she lived until about 1971.

Notes for Father unknown surnameunk
    Supposed father - Gene Amrin: Met Jean while living in Westport, Washingtn. We dated for several months during the late summer and fall of 1960. Gene/Jean worked as a sheet metal bender on the digestion tanks at Raineer Pulp Mill in Hoquiam, Washington. He lived in I think it was Aberdeen, WA. Being young and foolish I never knew much about him. I believe he was 26, but he thought I was 18. (I was 15.) He was also blond hair and blue eyed.
    
    That's about all I can tell my son.
    
    Supposed father - Punky Henderson Hendrickson or spelled with sen? Name unknown for sure. Story : When I lived at Westport Washington, my friend Edith Pringle and I went to Aberdeen and met a friend of hers who was married and had  two or three children, all under four if I remember right, all blond and blue eyed... anyway her husband was a US Armry vet who was returning from Vietnum. he lost his leg (right, I think and above the knee). Anyway a few weeks later while i was working as a waitress at a joint on the docks at Wesport, Washington in walked the husband Punky, they had agured and I gave him a place to sleep the night in the shed behind the house I lived in with my mom...The next morning before going to school I went out and woke him up so he could leave before he got caught there. Things just happened and we had sex.
    
    Since this happened while I was dating Gene, I do not know who is my son's father. I wish I could help him figure it out. I need to know too.

    I met Paul after Robert was born we married with in the month. During the first summer we moved to MO, during this time Robert caught menigitius.. Robert got well and we moved back to Renton, WA. My Mother who had been in Seattle with me during my pregnancy, had moved to CA. I moved there when I left Paul. I lived with my mother after Paul and I seperated. I found out a few months later that I was PG and told Paul about it, he came to San Jose to see me, and  asked me to come back I said no. He divorced me
Divorce 1962, King County, Washington, I was served papers in the hospital where/when James was born.
Paul was arristed for non child support payments and went to court with new wife,  he paid about 2 yrs and stoped. Paul, told everyone I was unfaithful, but I swear on my Mother's soul I was never unfaithful to Paul. James is his blood son. nlp

Notes for Gary Dennis White
    Divorced Aug.,1971, Vale Co., OR; He remarried Wanda Edminson, His daughter Heather was born Jan 1972.
I was unfaithful to Gary, Once... but he never forgave me and neither did I. I believe we started pulling apart after the death of our daughter Nelliena Patrica White. I had nightmares almost everynight for about 5 years. Gary was working out of town, and I needed someone to lean on he wasn't there. I harrased Wanda every chance I got, until I left town.

Nelliena, was born in a hospital in Olympia, Washington. I had gone in for an amniocentese test. The results were so bad they started induction Immediatly. Nelliena had seven complete blood tranfusions. She didn't leave the hospital for several months. But she had been given a clean bill of health and died with in one or two months of comming home, from SIDDS.  she was in her bassnet beside our bed, when I woke up, and took her out of her bed, she was still warm. I tried resussition, and closed heart message nothing worked.. This is where Gary and my problems started, we never shared our loss with each other. I had nightmares for years afterwards, and he never knew. I never felt comforted by him and looked to someone else for comfort when he was gone so long at work after we moved to Ontario, Oregon. after being unfaithful I did not feel worthy of Gary and pushed him away from me.. For years I suffered, and became a control freek, wanting everything to be under control, that way, nothing like that could ever happen again.  I still to this day regret how I responded to "Our" loss. It caused a lot of problems latter in life.
