Continuing with match searching

 Yesterday I moved to Gedmath in my pursuit of matches and found only a few really as I do generally check there as Ancestry matches are most likely to be found there but also it appears My Heritage is starting to pick them up as well. One excellent one for a third cousin known to me which proves without a doubt my original phasing of the 23rd chromosome for one of my brothers was absolutely correct as he received intact the Buller length of chromosome intact from my mother and probably just as she received it from her mother. I know that X chromosome the best as I can locate Welch, Cheatle, Buller, and Taylor areas on that chromosome - spectacular really as that takes me back to 3x great grandparent's additions to my DNA. Since my Pincombe line is male it is more difficult to separate out the families although have managed to locate Siderfin and Rew not too badly in the lines mostly with cousin's results although we all inherited a little Pincombe except for one of the test siblings. Mine is also primarily Buller 2/3rds and 1/3rd Pincombe plus I receive an entire Rawlings/Cotterill? chromosome and thus far I have not really separated it out at all. Perhaps I will begin to look at that - time will tell. 

No gardening as it was too wet although always tempting to go out in my rubber boots and rain clothes and pull weeds but I didn't do it. Perhaps today as we have the same weather. At least the King will feel at home here with all the rain but hopefully we have some sun to greet him and during his stay. I think if you are excited he is coming then that is wonderful and not so excited that is your right. But please do not boo him or anything just stay home and let those people who have come to cheer him have their day in the sun. We would do the same for you. I hate booing it is so juvenile. 

So continuing the Gedmatch searches and I am working on the second sibling; three more to go and then move on to Living DNA. I have never really used Living DNA so curious how that will come out actually since all of my people are either born in England (dying here) or lived in England their entire lives and died there except for those of us who were born in Canada. I was born a British Subject but grandfathered in my own right to being a Canadian citizen because I was born here before 1st of January 1947. I have always found that to be very exciting. I have to admit I could be equally happy being a citizen of Turtle Island; we did make mistakes we colonials but we are blessed with the opportunity to correct them as the First Nations are very generous people. It is a lovely word though - Canada. 

Praying that Hamas leaves Gaza  that would be great (and releasing the hostages still held for nearly two years now probably underground; Hamas is definitely Satan) so that the people of Gaza can get the supplies that they need. Hamas is responsible for all of the deaths that have occurred during this war and the difficulties which Gaza is presently facing. 

As I mentioned earlier, Satanic Russia does not understand the meaning of the word no - no you can not have Ukraine; they are their own people with their own land and have a right to exist. Stop committing genocide against the people of Ukraine.

Back to extraction and perhaps I will complete this in a couple of days. Then Living DNA and a quick check of My Heritage as it is now a while since I looked at that database. 

Tea completed, Breakfast eaten. Next weightlifting when I take a break.
