DNA Tests #dna

I am the administrator of 9 DNA Tests. The 9 family members tests were taken at FTDNA 10 - 6 years ago. All have been transferred to MyHeritage. They are all autosomal and either YDNA or MTDNA. I just bought 2 kits on sale at Ancestry. I plan to test myself and my husband first. My husband is already in FTDNA and MyHeritage. I have never tested before. Besides FTDNA and MyHeritage where do I transfer them? Is Gedmatch up and working again?

I have discussed this topic with Ancestry DNA
You can UPLOAD your DNA file to most other DNA sites from Ancestry, BUT you cannot DOWNLOAD your DNA file from other sites............ Yes GEDMATCH is back ...Bernie |

Let me add to Bernie's response. In the US, you can upload to FTDNA and MyHeritage but not to 23andme and Ancestry. GEDmatch has been up and running for about a week now. I recommend uploading everyone there because you can test against people from 23andme and Ancestry and the tools are much better. With all those relatives, you might combine blood relatives to formulate a speculative genome for common ancestors.
