To: Vance Carter,
I searched the internet and I am not sure but I think this is the Charles Carter with the
chopped off EKA [Earliest Known Ancestor] listing.
http://worldconnect.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=REG&db=m...
For the results to show up in the FTDNA public Y-DNA results table:
(1) A person has to join the FTDNA Carter DNA project from their FTDNA personal page and
(2) They have to approve their results being shown in the FTDNA Y-DNA results page.
Hope this explains why some of your matches from your FTDNA personal page are not not in
the public DNA results listing.
The EKA space is small and if you type too much in that space it will appear to cut off.
That is why people need to use State abbreviations and be as brief and to the point as
they can in their listing. It is only meant to briefly identify the Last known Carter
ancestor to assist others who are of the Lineage group... In your case Lineage Group J2 -
01
When and if we ever go to a non-FTDNA Carter web page we will be able to list a little
more in the EKA slot.....
