Probably because I administer a Frazer DNA Project. The Scottish DNA Facebook Page has a Matchbox utility which I had never used until now. The administrators checked the people who hadn&#8217;t used it and put out a request for Scottish DNA members to run matchbox. Their interest got me to act.<\/p>\n<h2>My Scottish Matchbox Matches<\/h2>\n<p>My grandmother was a Frazer. That is Scottish, but her ancestors since the 1700&#8217;s at least lived in Ireland. That means that I am potentially up to 25% Scottish. However, I would think it possible that I could match other members of the Scottish DNA Facebook Page on non-Scottish Lines. I ended up with 21 matches.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I had run Matchbox at the Newfoundland Gedmatch Facebook Page before, so I was a little familiar with it. Still, it took a little while to figure out how to use it. The Facebook Name on the right is to identify Scottish DNA members so they can be tagged. Then they will know that someone matches them or a DNA kit they administer.<\/p>\n<h2>Jane at Scottish DNA Matchbox<\/h2>\n<p>I match with Jane at the above Matchbox match list about halfway down the list. I have looked at Jane&#8217;s DNA quite a bit as she is part of the Frazer DNA Project that I administer.
