How is the genetic distance determined for each marker?
The genetic distance is determined by comparing the participants result for the marker with the markers mode value within the group being compared. For example, if the mode is 15 and the participant has a 17, then the genetic distance is 2. Data for Analysis The results posted to date are the most current DNA results to report for the Mowbray DNA Project. The results included are on Gil Mowbray, Phil Moubray, Rick Mowbray, David Mowbray, Donald Mowbray, Norman Mowbray, Neil Mowbray, Curtis Mowbray, James E. Mowbray, Frederick Mowbray, John P. Mowbray and John H. Mowbray. The MRCA (most recent common ancestor) between Gil, Phil, Rick, Curtis and Neil is Andrew Moubray b. abt. 1750 Spotsylvania County, Virginia. Gil, Rick and Neil share a more recent MRCA, Charles Lewis Moubray b. 1870 Rockingham County, Virginia. Donald and James seem to share a MRCA well within the last 300 years. More genealogical study needs to be done to verify this occurrence. It has not been determined yet whether
