Upon ordering a collection Kit via the web or by
phone, your name and contact information is cataloged in our Surname database. If
you submit two samples (one for you and one for a presumed relative), we will inform
you in a few weeks whether the two genetic samples have yielded a genetic match.

Your genetic information will be added to our secure, private, and confidential
non-web-based result database where you will receive an exciting potential benefit.
As other people order their genetic tests, they will either be looking for a relationship
to another specific individual (example above) or they will be submitting for a
comparison to the database library. If a match occurs in the future, you will be
informed of this relative's existence so that you can contact that person, if you
desire. For more about confidentiality and privacy of your records, see the FAQ
or the section entitled Legal.

FEMALE LINE TESTING - FOR GENEALOGY AND ANTHROPOLOGY
Both men and women may take this test. It traces the direct maternal line without influence from other lines. This test is for HVR1(16001-16569) of the mitochondrial DNA. A panel of twenty-two SNPs is included for backbone haplogroup placement. Results identify the ethnic and geographic origin of the maternal line. The customer receives a certificate and report generally describing the testing process and the meaning of matches. Results are placed in our database. When another person shows identical results, if both parties have signed the Family Tree DNA Release Form then we will inform them of the match.
Both men and women may take this test. It traces the direct maternal line without influence from other lines. This test is for HVR1(16001-16569) and HVR2(00001-00574) of the mitochondrial DNA. The addition of HVR2 to results reduces the number of matches. A panel of twenty-two SNPs is included for backbone haplogroup placement. Results identify the ethnic and geographic origin of the maternal line. The customer receives a certificate and report generally describing the testing process and the meaning of high resolution matches. Results are placed in our database. When another person shows identical results, if both parties have signed the Family Tree DNA Release Form then we will inform them of the match.
Both men and women may take this test. It traces the direct maternal line without influence from other lines. This test is for all three regions of the mitochondrial DNA: HVR1(16001-16569), HVR2(00001-00574), and the coding region (00575-16000). The entire mitochondrial genome is tested and this is the last mtDNA test that a person would need to take. A perfect match indicates a common ancestor in recent times. Results identify the ethnic and geographic origin of the maternal line. The customer receives a certificate and report generally describing the testing process and the meaning of matches. Results are placed in our database. When another person shows identical results, if both parties have signed the Family Tree DNA Release Form then we will inform them of the match.
This test allows Oxford Ancestry customers to upgrade their mtDNA test to Family Tree DNA standards at the mtDNAPlus (HVR1+HVR2) level. Please provide us with a copy of your Oxford Ancestry results and use the kit to send us a DNA sample. Both men and women may take this test.

AUTOSOMAL DNA TESTS FOR SIBLINGSHIP*
This is a panel of fifteen autosomal markers. It contains the thirteen CODIS markers (D3S1358, THO1, D21s11, D18s51, D5s818, D13s317, D7s820, D16s539, CSF1PO, vWA, D8S1179, TPOX, FGA). They were designed to be ancestrally uninformative. It also contains two additional markers (Penta D, Penta E).
