Solving Cluster 11 with X-DNA: 2021 and 2026

Solving Cluster 11 with X-DNA: 2021 and 2026

Program: Lois Abromitis Mackin,

In 2021 Genetic Affairs clustering created Cluster 11 from Lois’ 23andMe matches. The cluster had seven members sharing 36.6 to 61.9 cM of DNA, with large shared segments of X-DNA. Common ancestors/common neighborhood were identified for the cluster. In 2026 23andMe introduced their own clustering tool which produced a cluster including two members of Cluster 11. Watch how Cluster 3 changes when we change the parameters to match the Genetic Affairs clustering that produced Cluster 11.
