We are on 23andme. My Uncles father (my grandfather) is where we have a lot of mystery. We know he was nearly if not fully 100% Ashkenazi Jewish but we do not know much more. There are a lot of questions about a possible name change, possible family prior to marrying my grandmother, and his parents (possibly a Jacob and Yetta) we know nothing of.

IN trying to locate relatives on that genetic line we have yet to find anyone else with the r-z159. I was wondering if anyone on this group (where everyone is private) might have some thoughts or insight.

My e-mail is achievinglife@gmail.com and we have a MyHertiage page

found your info online at Geni. I did my DNA orgin test with 23nme about a month ago. I did really get direct relatives meaning the closest relatives were 2nd cousins and so on and one lady Cathy Bailey wouldn't give me the time of day. I'm kinda used to it at this point.

Anyways, I do not know who my biological father is. I've discovered these DNA Y chromosomes projects and I'm feeling like i.may find something finally. My paternal group is R-Z159. If I've been understanding correctly my father should be a L47/S170.

I sent off my ancestry kit last week. They've received it a couple days ago. I'm curious where that's going to take me. At least ancestry has almost double the customers of what 23nme currently has.

If I could help you out with linking me to your male side I'd be much grateful for anything that might direct me in the rite direction.. I sent you a email yesterday and also I found a 3rd cousin that has the same R-Z159 so now I have to find out who his dad and dads dad and possibly uncles are and hopefully zero in on who.my biological father is and possibly half siblings.
