It contains the first of the DAWE project BigY results - those for the Lamerton, Devon branch.<br />
With the current sale on, we've also upgraded a 4th cousin from the same line, so should progress down towards present day a little further.<br />
<br />
Once FamilyTreeDNA have finished their upgrade to their haplogroup tree and the necessary files are available (BAM files) again, results will also be uploaded to yFull.com, where we should be under this <a href="https://yfull.com/tree/R-BY653/">R-BY653 sub-branch</a>.<br />
<br />
Also check the R-haplogroup tree link on <a href="http://dnasurnames.info/p319570.htm">Isaac DAWE's page on DNASurnames</a><br />

<br />
On my (Lorna's) <a href="http://familytree.lornahen.com/spDAWE.htm">DAWE family page</a> there's a updated chromosome map of some of the DNA segments that have been identified as having been inherited by the participants from either Isaac DAWE or his wife Sarah SMITH, who married in 1796 at Tavistock, Devon.<br />
The 2014 version is still there for comparison.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
It is already out of date as another descendant of William Smith DAWE and Mary WAY has popped up on <a href="http://gedmatch.com/">GEDMatch</a>, having tested at Ancestry<br />
<br />
<br />
Over on DNASurnames, the DAWE DNA results page has an <a href="http://dnasurnames.info/lineages/dnadawe_atdna.htm">atDNA section</a> added.<br />
Included on that page is the current Dawe/Smith descendants chromosome map, but also a chart showing the predicted generations between matches along with the actual generations.<br />
The chart also highlights the randomness of atDNA inheritance by showing which cousins do NOT have a detectable match (over 10cMs).<br />
There is also a segment traceability diagram, copy below, showing how many connections between tested participants exist - thanks to the wonderful tools on GEDMatch. This one comes from the Multiple Kit Analysis - key for the diagram is on the above linked page. <br />

<br />
In doing so it was noticed that the default grid embedded on the result page direct from FamilyTreeDNA was not showing all of the project results.<br />
<br />
For those of you ordering Y-DNA tests after about March, please review this post about the changes to the default privacy settings that impacts this display.<br />
<a href="http://dnasurnames.blogspot.co.nz/2015/07/ftdna-privacy-settings.html">http://dnasurnames.blogspot.co.nz/2015/07/ftdna-privacy-settings.html</a><br />
<br />
The tweaks: <br />
<ul>
<li>formatting of some pedigrees that seem to have gone awol fixed</li>
<li>Skeleton pedigrees added for DAWE families in Lanreath, Cornwall and Snettisham, Norfolk </li>
</ul>
With the FamilyTreeDNA sale on until the end of December, this is a great time to find representatives for new direct male line DAWE families to take at least Y-DNA37 (but preferably Y-DNA67) tests, and for anyone with a DAWE ancestor to try FamilyFinder.<br />

<br />
Why not check out the activity feed for the group and contribute something about your DAW(E) ancestry and either what you are trying to prove from DNA, or have already proven?<br />
<br />
Activity feed posts are private to members of the project only.<br />
<br />
At the top of your FTDNA page you will see a globe, currently to the left of your name, upgrade message etc. <br />
The little globe that may have a red circle with numbers in it - that's the number of unread posts since you last visited.<br />
Clicking on Dawe in your project list will take you to the <a href="https://www.familytreedna.com/groups/dawe/about">new project pages</a>, which includes a link to the Activity Feed. <br />
At the moment there are still daily coupon codes being posted for varying $$ off new orders.<br />
The clutter of the $10 off ones has been reduced by moving those to the public News page, leaving the more serious $$ off ones for members only.<br />

The males need not be the only ones having dna fun for DAWE.<br />
<br />
Although yDNA is the quickest and surest way of proving direct male
lineages, it is restricted to just the direct male line descendants.<br />
Autosomal DNA is far more inclusive in that anyone with a DAWE ancestor may contain segments of DAWE DNA in their genes.<br />
Unfortunately
the inheritance process is a little more random, and the lottery of
life may mean it is no longer detectable, but you wont know until you
try!<br />
Want some background reading? Check out the ISOGG Wiki<br />
- <a href="http://isogg.org/wiki/Portal:Autosomal_DNA">http://isogg.org/wiki/Portal:Autosomal_DNA</a><br />
- <a href="http://isogg.org/wiki/Beginners%27_guides_to_genetic_genealogy">http://isogg.org/wiki/Beginners%27_guides_to_genetic_genealogy</a><br />
<br />
Autosomal results have not yet been included on the DAWE DNA project supplementary pages, but we are having a
degree of success identifying segments of dna that can be
attributed to DAWE ancestors from Devon.<br />
<br />
Check out Lorna's personal <a href="http://familytree.lornahen.com/spDAWE.htm">DAWE page</a> for a chromosome map, already out of date as more data flows in.<br />
<br />
To
join in with the multi-dimensional jigsaw involved in identifying the
shared segments of dna and the shared ancestor responsible for passing
on that bit of dna down the generations, do consider autosomal dna
testing - FamilyTree DNA's FamilyFinder for preference as you can then <a href="https://www.familytreedna.com/group-join.aspx?Group=Dawe">join the DAWE DNA project</a> there, but if you have tested at 23andme or ancestry and have DAWE ancestry, why not consider transferring to FamilyTree DNA?<br />
See the DNASurnames project diary for their <a href="http://dnasurnames.blogspot.co.nz/2014/10/transfers.html">transfer incentive</a>, club together with family members tested elsewhere, and get a free transfer.<br />

<br />
Our sole representative of the family of miller Isaac and Sarah (SMITH) DAWE of Lamerton has upgraded to 67 markers.<br />
The results show he has no matches at 67 markers at all in the FTDNA database.<br />
Back at 37 markers he only had one match, and that at a genetic distance (GD) of 4, to a person claiming descent from a HARRIS of Nova Scotia.<br />
<br />
There must be others claiming descent from DAW(E) families of Devon interested to see if they connect?<br />

Just no time to update the diary.<br />
Remember to keep an eye on the general DNA notices on the <a href="http://dnasurnames.blogspot.com/">DNA Surnames diary</a>.<br />
<br />
FamilyTree DNA's annual sale is over and done with and although we didn't advance our knowledge of DAW(E) Y-DNA to the best of my current knowledge, we do now have a prospect lined up that may do so.<br />
Fingers crossed.<br />
<br />
A lot of my time these days goes onto exploring autosomal matches (FamilyTree DNA's FamilyFinder test, or 23andme or ancestry's autosomal test).<br />
I am intrigued to notice a match to a lady with Newfoundland DAWs in her tree.<br />
We've not yet explored the connection further as there's only so many hours in a day.<br />
<br />
If you do want to venture forth into autosomal DNA testing, <a href="http://dna.ancestry.com/">ancestry</a> is currently offering tests at a discount (they were down to $79US but now seem to be $89US). Remember to transfer your results to FamilyTree DNA, <u><b>and</b></u> upload your raw data to <a href="http://gedmatch.com/">GedMatch</a>, to make the most of your investment, fishing in as many ponds as possible to find your matches.<br />
As they only ship to US addresses, check out the ISOGG Wiki <a href="http://www.isogg.org/wiki/Shipping_DNA_kits">Shipping page</a> for some options if you are elsewhere.<br />

All concerned have their origins in South West Devon.<br />
We would welcome anyone willing to represent their tree - or any other DAWE tree for that matter.<br />
<br />
Fuller trees, slightly less focussed on just those lines likely to be able to provide a direct male line DAWE to represent their tree in the dna project may be found on the Administrator's <a href="http://familytree.lornahen.com/spDAWE.htm">personal DAWE page</a>.DaweDNAAdminhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11716699335365435560noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4922180840396888312.post-33977852508016632962011-11-18T19:40:00.001+13:002011-11-18T19:41:40.380+13:00Discount time<span style="color: #43506a; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 18px;"><b>From Family Tree DNA:</b></span><br />

Contact the Project Administrator first if you think this may apply.<br /><br />Likewise, if you have any questions not answered by the FAQs available on the <a href="http://www.worldfamilies.net/surnames/dawe/home">Daw(e) project pages</a> or at <a href="http://www.familytreedna.com/faq.html">FamilyTree DNA</a>, please don't hesitate to contact the Project Administrator, as we'd love for you to be reassured that this is a completely harmless process, and you wont have police knocking on your door because of your dna, nor any medical conditions exposed. Those are completely different, much more elaborate tests.<br /><br />Come and join the fun, the more lines represented the better.DaweDNAAdminhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11716699335365435560noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4922180840396888312.post-86160458011325777332008-11-28T01:09:00.001+13:002008-11-28T01:11:42.029+13:0027th: Portal Pages updatedCheck out the <a href="http://dnaprojectsportal.com/lineages/spDAWELineages.htm">DAWE introductory page</a>.<br />Although we only have one participant in this project so far, time will presumably remedy that.<br />John would very much like to match his Newfoundland DAW family to their presumed English roots, either Dorset or Devon being favoured.<br />There must be some English DAW(E) descendants who are interested in helping us determine where/how the assorted DAWE families link up.<br /><br />So far, I've only included my main line, that of Isaac DAWE and Sarah SMITH, under the <a href="http://dnaprojectsportal.com/lineages/spwanteddawes.htm">WANTED! page</a>.<br />When time permits I will add a couple of other Devon families that also connect in various ways.DaweDNAAdminhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11716699335365435560noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4922180840396888312.post-11510440629966518182008-11-08T10:07:00.005+13:002016-07-23T11:10:32.292+12:00Participants wantedThe <a href="http://worldfamilies.net/surnames/dawe/">DAWE Surname DNA Project</a> would very much like to hear from male DAWE surnamed descendants of the following families:<br />
