DNA
test interpretation
Confused by what your DNA results mean?
Have them interpreted. Unclear on Y-DNA, autosomal DNA and
mitochondrial-DNA?
Guidance is here.
Y-DNA
- this can link you to genetic relatives as far back as 1,000
years distant.
autosomal DNA - cousin matches 5 to 6 generations back, plus
"ethnicity estimates" which are unreliable
mitochondrial DNA - maternal line from a male or a female |
Y-DNA - This tracks a man's paternal line (to his father,
grandfather, etc.)
Cannot be taken by females, but find a male close relative (for
example, brother, father, grandfather paternal cousin, paternal
uncle) with the appropriate surname.

Ancestral Scotland Ltd. recommends and will only interpret
test results from Family Tree DNA -

If you have been tested by another company, it may be possible to
transfer some of these results into the Family Tree DNA database.
