This is a good match. Out of 37 markers these two gentlemen match on 35
of them. The two locations that they do not match on are at a difference of
1 value. Using this data we can now connect un-documented Smiths to our
Smiths on the following terms. Because to separate line of Jacob Marion
Smith are being represented Burl Harvey Smith (Kevin) and James
Buchannan Smith (Tyson).

DYS 449 Modal value for the Smith family is 31 the descendants of Burl
Harvey Smith carry a value of 32.

DYS 570 Modal value for the Smith family is 20 the descendants of James
Buchannan Smith carry a value of 21.

Because it is believed that these types of mutations occur at the time of

conception we must study age of each father at the time of conception to
calibrate a mutation rate for the Smith family. This number will be known as
the years per generation.

The Average year per generation for the Smith family is 30 years.

How to calculate mutation rate.

Mutations/Amount of DYS Values/generations to a common ancestor

2/74/5=.0054

How to calibrate to compare to a match without a known paper trail.

2/74/.0054 x30 years per generation= 150 years ago is the predicted date
for a common ancestor.

To check if this is true

Tyson was born in 1982

1982-150 years = 1832

This calculation is only 6 years off. This is very close considering most
calculations will say plus or minus 200 years! In the future we will be able to
determine more lines of the Jacob Marion Smith family and the
descendants of his cousins as well.
