FW: Lesley's daughter -Tanya's- matches with Vosper cousins
Cousin Lesley's daughter was the Ancestry DNA match I sent you earlier. Lesley and I ran the Gedmatch reports, and the media below represent the results of those comparisons.
Cousin Teri
----------------------
Hi Teri
You'll be getting mightily tired of me sending you data! (And I still have a cousin that might well throw something else into the Vosper pot!)
Tanya's GEDmatch number is A647352. I'm surprised that there are so many matches as it is yet another generation down the line! Sorry can't do the GMP stuff yet!!

Gedmatch results with VOSPER COUSIN Carol Eades
Hello again, cousins!
Cousin Carol Eades reminded me that she had sent her kit # to me just before I went on a cruise, and I lost the thread of that conversation, and didn't do the kit comparisons. In checking my records, I also found I had left an error on our Vosper Cousins Chart. Good grief, I must have been very overwhelmed.
IF EVER I DO THIS TO YOU, please get back in touch – it is not intentional, it is just an oversight. I can use your help in making sure everything is complete…..
So, here are the results of the analysis – Carol certainly matches a LOT of us!:
Match to me:

Then, since we had such a good match to Robert Vosper, I took a look at Robert's segment match for Vosper / Goddard, and got this great map:
Look at all those segment matches that are in common with other cousins with a common MRCA of John Vosper and Grace Goddard!
Thanks so much, Carol, for getting in touch and letting me know that I had missed this.
And so the rest of you know, it was Carol who first pointed out that the Visitations of Cornwall page had our family incorrect, which got me on the correct path – thanks, Carol, for that as well!
Carol, there is no way to 'join' the Vosper Cousins Blog – it is just always there -- http://vospercousins.blogspot.com/ It's a handy place to look back on past correspondence or do a search for something you remember (use the little box on the upper left hand side)…
Have a great day!

RE: Cousin Lesley's brother Tony's Vosper DNA matches
Happy Saturday Vosper Cousins, unless it's Sunday – then Happy Sunday!
My last email with Glenda's DNA matches prompted this reply from Lesley Dawson, pointing out that I had missed Tony in the analysis. Sorry about that, Lesley! I've been overwhelmed with some other DNA work, and I missed the email with your brother's GedMatch number. I've now updated my database, and he will be included in future analysis.
Lesley, I'll get back to you individually about the GMP issues.
Cousins, I did all the positive matches that Lesley documented below and put them in my database – it's nice to see that BIG match with Cousin Paula!
Here are some segment matches I have from the Vosper/Bawden MRCA (Most Recent Common Ancestors):
These graphics are from GenomeMatePro, a free DNA analysis tool I use to store my results. I don't have profiles for each of the Vosper Cousins, just my immediate family and descendants of Charles Vosper who was the immigrant Vosper that came to America to found my family.
I have also received an email from Cousin Carol with her GedMatch results, so I'll be updating my records with her data, and sending out one more update on the DNA matches we share.
Frankly, I find it amazing that we have even these small matches so far back! But then, I find it amazing that we, such distant cousins, have gotten in touch with each other!
Take care,
Cousin Teri

Subject: My brother Tony's Vosper matches
Hi Teri
I don't have all the Gedmatch numbers for the Vosper group but here are a few results for my brother Tony Parker (I did send his Gedmatch number a while ago). Obviously he matches my sister Monica and myself.
No doubt you have more Gedmatch numbers than I have but he matches to quite a few of the group. I wouldn't know how to take it any further as I'm still grappling with the ins and outs of GMP and still having a LOT of trouble uploading data from FTDna into it. Managed Ancestry and Gedmatch OK but FTDna can get no data in for any of my profiles!
Let me know if you need any more details.
Regards
Lesley

FW: Gedmatch results with our newest cousin, Glenda
Glenda got some positive results in matches to some of the other Vosper Cousins who have DNA tested. I've documented the results below.
Given that our common ancestor is about 10 generations back, it would be kind of miraculous to find matching segments – but I did find some! They are small segments, which are often ignored by genetic genealogists as being IBS – identical by state. However, we have found the very same segments among different family members, showing they are IBD – identical by descent. Here are the results of the comparisons:
Glenda doesn't match me:
She does match my brother:
Comparing Kit M522600 (*Bennett descended from Willem Adrianse) and M590264 (*Glenda GM)
Minimum threshold size to be included in total = 500 SNPs

Largest segment = 4.3 cM
Total of segments > 2 cM = 13.4 cM

AND my other brother:
Comparing Kit M584321 (*RL Rogers) and M590264 (*Glenda GM)

She does not match cousin James Vosper:
Nor match Cousin Paula:
But Glenda does match Cousin Lesley Dawson:

No matches for these cousins:
But, there is a match to Sheila Stevens:

There is also a match to Cousin Yvonne:

I've added this to my program for tracking DNA, and we end up with a genome map for my brother Robert that looks like this:
And for my brother Tom that looks like this:
