need help with dna confirmation 3rd cousin

Question

my confirmation is easy 3rd cousin but have forgotten something as it is not showing the dna symbol on my relative.

Gibson-20082 and Stewart-39960 are confirmed by my Greatgrandmother Gibson-20081 and her brother Gibson-20559

I put the dna statement on Jackson-50922 who is the father of my still living 3rd cousin not on Facebook. and on my Great Grandmother Gibson-20081

If someone could advise what I need to complete the process, would be grateful!

Thank you and best regards,

It looks like you didn't set the "confirmed with DNA" indicators on these profiles.

I updated the indicators for Jackson-50922, Gibson-20081, and Gibson-20559.

Answer 1

I find using Greg Clarke's DNA confirmation app the easiest way to make the DNA confirmation statements. https://apps.wikitree.com/apps/clarke11007/DNAconf.php

It leads you step by step.

Answer 2

The DNA symbol appears when you go into Edit mode, then under Family Relationships select either “Father confirmed by DNA” or “Mother confirmed by DNA”.

But first, there is a standard DNA confirmation statement format that should be followed. I recommend using the app that Nancy mentioned, so you include all the necessary details in your statement.

Hope that helps!

Answer 3

The DNA confirmation should read something like this:
* Paternal relationship is confirmed by an {{AncestryDNA}} test match between [[Whitten-1|Chris Whitten]] and his second cousin. Their most-recent common ancestors are their great grandparents, [[Bartlett-4|Hollis Bartlett Sr.]] and [[Storrs-2|May Storrs]]. Predicted relationship from AncestryDNA: 2nd Cousins, based on sharing 150.3 cM across 9 segments; Confidence: Extremely High.
