Tom,I'mthanking you andMrStaffordfor helping me with this
I am just a layman and I just thought I would ask some questionsas I first got withFTDNAin around 2005 thruBrown DNA Studyand haveONLYMATCHED WITHTWELVEGUYS!!!I meanonly12 regardless of surname.Matchedtwo Browns at 25/25but they did not testfor genealongical purposes and shared NOfamily historywith me.....
I jumped at the 65/67thinkingIFthey are kin,as the DNAcertainlyseemed to indicate,it wouldgive me at least some idea of where my family came from to America...even thoughthere is , so far, no similar paper trail.NowI see that,as you stated, DNA may not liebut can mislead...
Thanksagain!
