Thanks for bringing this to the group. I personally think that the Oxford site, in it's current offering and demeanor, is more anthropological then genealogical. The quoted 7 daughters of Eve sounds very nice, but it doesn't put families together in the sense that our genealogical work attempts (paper trail or otherwise.) Oxford originally stated that they would offer a Y test in May (based upon a 4 marker test) but that has been delayed for a few months, I imagine, to offer something closer to an 11 marker test. Having said that, please be aware that we test men who order tests through Jewishgen for both mtDNA and Y so we can potentially offer then emails that says: "you and XXX are related on your mothers side, their email address is: Our Relative match test gives you what Oxford currently offers, and what they have yet to introduce.
