Additionally, administration tools will no longer be available to list administrators and mailing lists will be put into an archival state.
Administrators may save the emails in their list prior to March 2nd. After that, mailing list archives will remain available and searchable on RootsWeb
Hi Eric. I've done autosomal as well. It's not automatic that if you match someone else and you both have Chastain ancestry that your matched area on the Chromosome browser is from the Chastain match. Wish it were that simple but it is not. That matched area may be from a maternal line that married into your common Chastain ancestry upstream from the two of you. Best bet is to do a multiple person match and do a triangulation and if the areas all match on the browser then there is an increased chance of that area being Chastain DNA. Use of the web site Gedmatch.com and a few others would probably help you.

Hi Eric -
I have done DNA testing at both AncestryDNA and 23andMe. I have had a hard
time connecting with people so we can proceed to the next level. My
Chastain ancestry is one I have not been able to go back beyond my 2nd
great-grandfather, so I am really interested in finding Chastain DNA
relatives.
Have you done your DNA tests done on either of these sites? If so, maybe
we can share genomes and see if we are related and where. I have
uncovered other cousins and found the segments where we match.
Best of luck!

Hi all,
My family has long suspected a tie to Pierre CHASTAIN, via Royal CHASTAIN,
but we have lacked decisive paperwork.
I have recently submitted samples for, and received result from, an
autosomal DNA test whereby there are the common surnames of CHASTAIN.
My question is; Are the autosomal chromosomal characteristics known, (e.g.
which chromosomes, at which segments, for what lengths.) that determine
explicitly which markers are attributed to the CHASTAIN line?
Warm Regards,
Eric Wilson
