Discounts available on YDNA tests thru tomorrow, 3/31. Attached is a compilation of articles published in our most recent RFA quarterly Dispatch newsletter explaining how YDNA testing can be useful for your Reynolds family history research. *Are you considering YDNA testing your Reynolds line for the first time? *We recommend you start with either a 37 marker test for $119 or a BigY test for $449 BigY. Your budget will determine which option is best for you. Details on what you'll get for each are included below. $50 off Y-37 Code: GGC19Y37 $200 off Big Y-700 Code: GGC19BIGY *Have you already YDNA tested and considering upgrading to BigY? *BigY is the recommended YDNA test for almost any Reynolds family history researcher. Below are prices and coupon codes for upgrades to BigY from different levels of STR testing.

If you're interested in the additional $50 discount (in addition to the sale price listed above), send me an email. I'll let you know how to order and apply the additional $50 off your BigY. Feel free to be in touch with any questions. Regards, Tommy Reynolds Volunteer Administrator Reynolds Surname YDNA Project (Excerpt from February 2019 RFA Dispatch Newsletter) *Recommended Reynolds YDNA Testing Strategies:* Here we identify two potential strategies to help folks get started with the Reynolds YDNA Project. Which option you pursue will largely be determined by your budget. If you have already tested and want upgrade strategy recommendations, feel free to be in touch. *Option 1 – Starter Pack*: Test yourself (or your Reynolds line male representative: brother, uncle, male cousin, etc.) with 37 STR markers. Cost $119. What will you get with Option 1? 1. You will see if you have genealogically relevant matches. Will they be Reynoldses? 2. You can get a hint of whether your male line ancestors have been called Reynolds for many generations. 3. New matches appear over time--how many and how often depends on how common your lineage is; some people have hundreds of matches some people have less than five. 4. You can probably be placed by Project administrators into one of the ~40 distinct groups of genetically related Reynoldses. 5. The ancient haplogroup estimate you’ll receive will also show you who you DON'T match. Who you DON’T match is critically useful information for your research. For example, it has proven that my Joseph Reynolds is NOT related to Cornelius Reynolds that also lived nearby in Arkansas in late 1800s. It also proves that my Joseph is NOT the son of Isaac Reynolds of Northern KY in the early 1800s, in spite of what the Tillman book and every single tree on Ancestry.com suggests. Knowing my line is not connected to these Reynoldses has saved countless hours of research effort. *Option 2 – The Trailblazer*: Test yourself (or your Reynolds line male representative: brother, uncle, male cousin, etc.) with BigY. Cost ~$449. Then persuade or wait for another Reynolds in your lineage/Group to also do a BigY test. This other Reynolds could either be a descendant from a different son of your most distant Reynolds ancestor. This is a team sport and the decision of any member to upgrade actually benefits everyone in the genetic group. What you get with Option 2? 1. All benefits of Option 1, detailed above. 2. Much higher confidence and refinement in STR matching. 3. A high-resolution genetic profile of the SNP mutations that occurred in your Reynolds y chromosome: from thousands of years ago as people spread out around the six continents right down your recent "genealogical" SNPs from the past few hundred years. 4. Your lineage’s "personal" SNPs that are not previously known to family historians or scientists. Some of these SNPs are shared among your known and unknown Reynolds cousins. Using these SNPs will be key for identifying the haplogroup of your most distant Reynolds ancestor and confirming connections with other researchers. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The $119 price for a 37 STR test is after the $50 discount is applied. Likewise, the $449 price for a BigY is after the $200 discount is applied. Beyond these prices, RFA is offering an additional $50 subsidy for BigY testing. This drops the cost of a new BigY test (which includes the traditional 111 STRs and much more valuable info) to $399. Feel free to be in touch with any questions. Regards, Tommy On Sat, Mar 30, 2019 at 7:55 PM Emyoulation at yahoo.com wrote: > Tommy, > > Can you clarify?
