Jewish ancestry

[Phoenix]

If you thought 344 close cousins were too many, brace yourselves.

Late boss's daughter has over 1000 close cousins. The fields are not fully populated yet, but she has a HUGE number of alleged third cousins.

It looks as if ordinary triage methods may be a huge waste of time.

Do I just plough through?

Is this on ancestry, Phoenix? And is her ethnicity 100% Jewish?

But I should add that Ancestry filter out a lot of the common Jewish DNA than the other sites do; My Heritage and FTDNA are much worse.

I think it is time for your friends to do their own sorting.

I must admit to being a tiny bit jealous at all the matches and yet grateful I don't have to sort them out.
