Ysearch Web Site

One service available to members of Family Tree DNA is a web site called Ysearch, which can be found at http://ysearch.org. Ysearch is a free public service offered by FTDNA on which individuals who have had their DNA tested can share their results, and search for matches, regardless of which company did their test. While our surname project is hosted by FTDNA, and it compares results only for Casey's who've been tested at FTDNA, the Ysearch site provides an additional opportunity to share your results and search for matches beyond FTDNA.

It's easy to add your test results to the Ysearch site from FTDNA. See the instructions from the Ysearch site below:

Family Tree DNA customers have the option of automatically uploading their results from their personal page at FTDNA. If you are a Family Tree DNA customer, please go to your personal page at FTDNA, and in the "Y-DNA Matches" section you will find a link to upload your data to Ysearch. If you need to upload upgrades to your test, you will also find a link from that personal page at FTDNA.

If you haven't already, you should really consider uploading your FTDNA results to Ysearch. You may find your DNA match, even if they did their test with another company.
