Hello
I have little experience with DNA testing, and would appreciate an experienced opinion.
I had an autosomal DNA test by Living DNA which provided me with haplogroup & haplotype. Not sure how many markers they use, but I think not many. No names came up the same as mine, which was expected, but I do have sufficient documentation back to mid 1300s, but there is a gap at that point where I am unable to connect by documentation to earlier lines.
I want to proceed further with a Y-DNA test in an attempt to partly verify my “theoretical” genetics back to aprox 1100.
Which test would be the most suitable – will 111 markers be sufficient for that time range, or must I go for the Y-700?
Reading the many articles on the internet is somewhat confusing for an "amateur"! Any ideas?
