My Whole Genome Sequencing. The VCF File - Blog comment by vanlaargen - 10 Feb 2019
... creating a merged file of my mother's 23andMev3, MyHeritage, Ancestry and LivingDNA files using DNA Kit Studio. I failed at doing it with my DanteLabs vcf files. I recently learned DanteLabs' North-American customers get their results from an Illumina machine, while European customers get their results from a BGI machine, I wonder if ...

Genetic Clusters and DNAGedcom - Blog comment by jimbartlett - 1 Feb 2019
Louis, I used the Genetic Affairs method with a download from DNAGedcom. My matrix includes the Notes field from my AncestryDNA Matches. In those Notes I've entered a code for every Common Ancestor I've found (ex: 36P/4C1R) and/or every Match with segment data (from GEDmatch or another company) - an example of the ...

... with an ancestor and color them. But that functionality is not possible for AncestryDNA where you do not have segment data and can only use ICW between testers.

Wow! That's great news Phillip. Since I retired, programming for genealogy and DNA analysis has more than filled my need for having new challenges and aspirations. I hope you also enjoy the process and get FHS to be the program you always wanted it to be.

Hi Louis,
I just used DNA Kit Studio to merge my mothers’ Ancestry, 23andMEv3, MyHeritage and LivingDNA kits. The resulting file was 39.5MB. A strange quirk, there seems to be a chromosome 25, but after checking some of them on DBSNP they all seemed to be on the X or and on ...

My Living DNA Results Are In - Blog comment by jbissett - 8 Aug 2018
Thanks Louis. I received the same email, and I will be uploading all of my dna kits later today. Your blog post was very relevant.
How is DMT progressing? I have not had the time to use it lately, but based on what I'm seeing for my orphaned GM in DNA Painter, I'm going to need to do some new downloads and submit them to ...

DMT Now Reads @MyHeritage DNA Segment Match Files - Blog comment by lkessler - 3 Aug 2018
From Ancestry DNA, the DNAGedcom Client can only download the people you match to and the people you are ICW (in common with) along with the total match length. But Ancestry DNA does not have a chromosome browser and does not make ...
