This is my fourth Blog on my daughter Heather’s DNA. Here are the first three:<\/p>\n

    Heather’s DNA at Genesis<\/h2>\n

    Genesis is the new version of Gedmatch. I uploaded Heather’s DNA there for analysis. I am getting used to Genesis and Genesis is still being upgraded. Heather has three kits at Genesis. I uploaded her DNA from AncestryDNA, then I made two more kits for her. These nest two kits separate out her paternal DNA and her maternal DNA based on my DNA.<\/p>\n

    Heather’s Maternal Matches<\/h3>\n

    Because I know a lot about my genealogy and DNA matches, I would like to look at Heather’s maternal side matches. Fortunately, Heather’s first four matches (after matching herself) are matches that I discussed in my previous Blog on the Jarek\u00a0Family. When I look at Heather’s maternal DNA compared to everyone at Genesis, here are the top 5 matches:<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    The first match is Heather’s maternal side matching with all her DNA. Here is where Heather matches the other four on the list:<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    Heather and her first four matches have as a common ancestor Joseph Jarek and Marianna Ras.<\/p>\n

    DNAPainter<\/h2>\n

    It is possible to paint these four matches to Heather using a web utility called DNAPainter. DNAPainter is quite easy to use. I set up a profile for Heather. Here is her blank canvas:<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    I just told DNA Painter Heather’s name and that she was female. DNA Painter wants to know if Heather is female so it can give her two X Chromosomes.<\/p>\n

    First, I painted in Heather’s match with Robert:<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    The common ancestors are Jarek and Ras and they appear on Heather’s maternal side chromosomes in yellow. I painted in the other three matches who appear to be siblings and got this:<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    That brings Heather up to 2% painted with 26 segment. That 2% includes her paternal and maternal side, so that would be more painted on just her maternal side.<\/p>\n

    Painting Heather’s Paternal Side<\/h3>\n

    The fastest way to paint in Heather’s paternal side is to paint in her match with my mother:<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    This quickly gets Heather up to 26% painted. Heather’s X Chromosome should be all blue but for some reason she has a gap in the middle. I added some more paternal matches and got this:<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    This gets Heather up to 34% painted. Heather’s paternal side is 63% painted and her maternal side is 5% painted.<\/p>\n

    Betty at Genesis<\/h3>\n

    Heather’s first maternal match after the known yellow Jarek matches painted is Betty. This looks to be Betty’s tree at Ancestry:<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    I’m skeptical of finding a match with Heather’s tree, but I’ll try Here is the tree I came up with:
    \n    \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    I feel as though the connection may be with Annie Parson who was born in England – probably Lancashire County. But I don’t have a solid connection.<\/p>\n

    Summary and Conclusions<\/h2>\n
