Knight McKnight Y-DNA along the Great Philadelphia Wagon Road

There are three main DNA tests for genetic genealogy. The yellow the the most popular autosomal DNA and this covers very well through 2nd cousin, well enough, but missing many from 3rd cousin and the farther back missing more each generation. The red is the maternal DNA with relatively zero genealogy use (yes, yes in some cases) and the magic blue line is the y-DNA. With y-DNA you can identify a male ancestor from way back, by testing male line son descendant from each of that ancestor's sons. If the ancestor did not have two sons this cannot be done and work down until you can, or go farther back in time and over and test male cousin.
