			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As I&#8217;ve learned more about DNA with respect to genealogy, I see the need for a future feature in <a href="http://www.ancestry.com/" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/www.ancestry.com/?referer=');">Ancestry.com</a> and Family Tree Maker to search on the results of a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genealogical_DNA_test" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genealogical_DNA_test?referer=');">Genealogical DNA test</a>. This would allow matching on Mitochondrial, mtDNA, and Paternal, Y-DNA, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haplogroup" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haplogroup?referer=');">haplogroups</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haplotype" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haplotype?referer=');">haplotypes</a>.<br />
<span id="more-131"></span><br />
Some <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_genealogy_software" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_genealogy_software?referer=');">genealogy software</a> already allows the recording of DNA information.</p>
<p>The DNA sub section of <a href="http://www.ancestry.com/" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/www.ancestry.com/?referer=');">Ancestry.com</a> currently provides a surname search, but I&#8217;d like to search based on the values from my DNA test. Give me a rating on a match that tells me that I&#8217;m related with a most recent common ancestor, MRCA, within &#8220;n&#8221; generations with a confidence of &#8220;m&#8221; percent. Aside from of the obvious matching of relatives and ancestors, I would like to see the feature let you send a contact email without divulging identities to another <a href="http://www.ancestry.com/" onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/www.ancestry.com/?referer=');">Ancestry.com</a> user that you may have found is possibly a relative. This is similar to the &#8220;contact&#8221; feature currently offered on the Private and Public family trees. This would support the discovering and collaborating with other genealogists that you are likely related to.</p>
