It is not always what DNA gives by way of match’s that testers should be aware of.

It can happen that there are no DNA match’s routing down branch’s of your tree.

I have zero DNA match’s linked to either of my Paternal GGF’s and beyond them, hence I have two questionable relationships despite the documented pathways.

I let my sub lapse for a few weeks last year as the renewal came up just before I was due to be away on holiday. My DNA  matches were all there but I could only see a limited number of shared matches.  Everything back when I renewed sub

I have helped people with endogamy paternal grandmas brother marrying maternal granddad's sister so only 6 great grandparents not 8
No incest involved

Lots of cousin marriages in various trees that I marriage

& Have heard cases where people have NO matches on paternal side
