New DNA Match

super8mm · Senior Member

as a update this gent also did the 67 marker test and we are still 2 steps.

the real fun thing is his cousin did the 67 marker test and we are just 1 step different

at 67 markers I now have two Browns, one Lamond and two Lamont's

wohoo, exciting stuff

super8mm · Senior Member

I though so too, for an adoptee that is getting closer biggrin

the sister that emailed me said they thought their family came to the US from Ireland and didnt know about Scotland.

I wonder if these gents are showing up on Johns list too?

Knockdow · Guru

which John? I will look

John Lamond north of the border. He is on mine (201688) at a 2 step

Hi Steve!

Have you increased your Y-DNA match totals since your original posting?

I have a probable BROWN cousin, two Lamonts, a Lamond and you on my FTDNA 67-marker match list and believe that we corresponded quite some time ago.

Best wishes!

You and I still show the same distance but I am one step closer to the others. I am sure that means something but darn if I know what it is

Did a Y67 and Family finder DNA test with familytreedna.com waiting for results.

super8mm · Senior Member

It will be interesting to see what matches come up

Several months ago I did the Big-Y test and there is a Mr.RJ Brown and I that match there and it appears the 2 of us are split off of the rest of the L519 project in a sub group.

Denpat55 · Senior Member

I am hoping to match John Patric (k) 1429 on Patrick project.

super8mm · Senior Member

Good luck on your hunt.

Denpat55 · Senior Member

Steve did you do family finder test?

Denpat55 · Senior Member

Steve did you do family finder test?

super8mm · Senior Member

Yes Sir, I did the Family Finder several years ago

Denpat55 · Senior Member

I got my family finder test results back it show on my oragen 73% British Isles 23% southern Europe 3% Finland North Siberia.

super8mm · Senior Member

Cool, mine shows 84% Western and Central Europe and 10%Finland and Northern Siberia

I got my Y-DNA67 results back last week, at 67 markers it showed 6 matches, 1 at 0 Genetic Distance, 5 at 1 genetic distance. 4 with Robert Patrick b. 1705 and 1 with John Patric b. 1429 as most distant ancestor. on the Lamont family DNA study it has me a position #125

super8mm · Senior Member

good info to have smile

Denpat55 · Senior Member

Super8mm are you on the Lamont DNA study, and what is your row number there.

super8mm · Senior Member

not sure if we are looking at the same one but if it is the one in color and in the R1b (M269+) I am #12.

it is the one here under Current data.

Denpat55 · Senior Member

I am on the Lamont site that famliytreeDNA.com is linked to.

super8mm · Senior Member

on that one if it is set to 12 markers I am number 91

Denpat55 · Senior Member

ok thanks

Denpat55 · Senior Member

Did you have match on your Y-DNA if so what surname?

super8mm · Senior Member

Yes I have 7 matches at 67 markers

GD Name Ancestor
1 Robert Lamont Ballygoney, N Ireland
2 Mark Williams
2 Luther Thompson Jr
2 William Lamont
2 John Lamond Duntocker, Scotland
3 Robert Brown Markinch, Fife, Scotland
7 Keith Brown

The 2 Lamonts are cousins. Mr. Thompson is in the Luckie line. Mark Williams family is somewhat fragmented about 5 generations back so they are about in the same boat as I am.

There are 3 of us that have done the Big-Y. Under FGC13437 there are 4 of us, 3 of us share 16 unique marker but Mr. Robert Brown and I branch off after that and have 4 more unique markers.

I wish we could get more Lamont’s to take a Big-Y to see if they have the 4 unique makers that we have. smile

Very cool Steve I can't fine a drect link to the Lamonts on my Patrick line I think we are only a step family. My nephew David Patrick found a link to the Lamont on are Cunningham line.

super8mm · Senior Member

There are not many Lamonts compared to some of the other septs.

A recently released series of three YouTube videos that John Cleary presented at this year's "Who Do You Think You Are?" gathering in Birmingham are really helpful in getting your head around this Y-DNA stuff. In the first one he deals with STR values (from the 12 to 111-marker test) and SNPs (from the Big-Y test) and explains their relative usefulness. You can hit it at this URL:

www.youtube.com/watch

At the end of that one, it will automatically sequence into the second video and it will auto-sequence into the third segment at the end of the second one. I think that John can explain things in a far better manner than I could and he accompanies his explanations with slides that he used in his WDYTYA presentation.

I just watched the first one but this is one of those deals I will have to watch several times to soak it all in confuse

Hi cousin Steve (and Dennis)!
I noticed that FTDNA has the Big-y 700 test on special @$229 USD until the 17th (I think), so I've ponied up the $$$ and am going for broke on it. biggrin
Just thought you'd like to know for the Lamont FTDNA and the CLSNA DNA files.
I'll keep you posted on any significant results that might turn up. confuse
