<\/a><\/p>\nBarbara also shows as a match to Joan at Ancestry and Ancestry suggest a common ancestor between the two:<\/p>\n
My guess is that Joan and Barbara could share other common ancestors. However, this DNA match is important due to the lack of vital records for this part of Newfoundland. I already have a fairly extensive family trees of Upshalls who match by DNA:<\/p>\n The Newfoundland branch descends from Sarah Upshall. The George Upshall Line from Sarah is in the 4th and 5th columns. Here I add in Barbara without checking Ancestry’s genealogy:<\/p>\n Barbara is on the bottom left in green. I use green to indicate that detailed chromosome information is available for her.<\/p>\n Because there is detailed information for Barbara’s match with Joan, I can use DNA Painter. This maps out Joan’s DNA. Here is some of the DNA that Barbara has added to Joan’s map:<\/p>\n Unfortunately, the program gave Peter Upshall a lighter color. It is better to have lighter colors for the more recent ancestors. However, I can adjust that in the program. At this point, Joan is 36% painted over all. That breaks down to:<\/p>\n Barbara matches on Joan’s maternal side. I’m pretty sure that Barbara added to the maternal and overall amount of DNA that Joan has identified on her map. Here is Joan’s Chromosome Map as shown by DNA Painter:<\/p>\n The top row for each chromosome is paternal and the bottom row is maternal.<\/p>\n My mother-in-law’s Aunt Esther has this match with Barbara:<\/p>\n Right now Esther is 35% painted, but 53% painted on her paternal Upshall side:<\/p>\n I had already added Barbara to Esther’s DNA Map. Here she is on Chromosome 1:<\/p>\n Elaine has a more modest match with Barbara:<\/p>\n This adds a new set of ancestors for Elaine, going back to Peter Upshall born in 1800:<\/p>\n This raised Elaine’s maternally painted side from 30% to 31%.<\/p>\n I would have thought my wife would have had a bigger DNA match with Barbara based on her mother Joan’s match:<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\nDNA Painter<\/h2>\n
