Jonny @ DNA Painter

@scifiotica Hi Lisa. Glad it has helped. Do you mean the children of two people who are first cousins? Ideally, you would omit these people since the probabilities do not account for pedigree collapse. Sorry if I've misunderstood the question!

@dnapainter Hi I recently used DNA Painter and it has been a great help. I have one question. Should I include the children of a 1st cousin (or even closer) relationship once or twice in the family tree? Many Thanks. I would never have unraveled the mystery, or caught my own error without it

Thanks Geoff; pleased that the matrix tool webinar made the list!

My latest blog post is already slightly out of date because I seem to be addicted to adding new features to the matrix tool. But here it is! blog.dnapainter.com/blog/matrix-to…

@Cferra1227 There's no way of proving I didn't!

@Cferra1227 You know I was tempted to style the tool like that, but I resisted!

There will be a free webinar about the Matrix tool tomorrow (Friday May 30th). You can register at familytreewebinars.com/webinar/shared… Hope to see you there!
