And my uncles, under close family, also got only two colors.

My full siblings, though, got all four colors. Notice that my dad (under parent/child) only got two colors since he’s only related to me through two grandparents. Go to STEP 2 of this list and continue until all of your 3rd cousins and higher (in other words, everyone above 90 cM) are assigned to at least one color group.Click the “back” arrow to go back to your match list and find the first person – UNDER 400 cM – who is not already in a color group.It’s easiest to start from the bottom of the list or the pop-up box gets in your way!) (By the way, this great tip is from Larry Jones in the video.

Add everyone above this 3rd cousin to Group #1 in the same way.

Scroll down to the end of the 3rd Cousin group (which should be about 90 cM) and add that person to the group by selecting “Add to Group” and then clicking “Group #1.”.

(We will change the group names after we identify them later.) (You can use the default color or choose your own.)

Click on “Add a Group” then “Create Custom Group” for that person.

Click on the person’s name then on “Shared Matches.”.

Find the first person who shares less than 400 cM with you.

Here are the steps I’m using to do the Leeds Method with colored dots directly with Ancestry: You can see the colored dots in the last column, though you cannot see the names of the groups in this view. You can read more about the Leeds Method by clicking here.Īlthough the steps Larry laid out were very similar to the Leeds method, there were a few differences. The hope is that you’ll get 4 different color groups representing your four grandparent lines.

If you are new to the method, it uses basically your 2nd & 3rd cousins (or those between 90 cM and 400 cM) to create groups of DNA who are likely related to you and to each other through a common ancestral line. So, I’ve been working with ’s “colored dots” today using basically the same steps as the Leeds Method. Ancestry has recently solved that issue by offering us the capability of adding up to 24 colored dots per person! The main issue, though, was that we could only use one colored dot per person.

Yesterday I watched a YouTube video by Larry Jones of DNA Family Trees called “ How to Cluster Your DNA Matches With Ancestry’s New DNA Matches Beta.” It reminded me of my failed attempt to do the Leeds Method on using Blaine Bettinger’s Chrome extension.
