An Attempt to Integrate Previous Localized Estimates of Human Inbreeding for the Whole of Britain John E. Pattison1 1(University of South Australia) Corresponding author: Dr John E Pattison, University of South Australia, Adelaide, South Australia, Australia, 5085. Issue: 88.4 Running header: Human Inbreeding for the Whole of Britain Key words: mating relationships, consanguineous marriages, inbreeding coefficient, logistic function, historic Britain. Abstract There have been a number of previous estimates of human inbreeding for Britons of British descent in Britain; each generally for different social classes, geographical regions, and/or time periods. In this study an attempt was made to collect all relevant published studies and to combine the results of these disparate studies into an integrated whole for all of Britain. This was achieved by combining weighted means of the percentage of consanguineous marriages (f%) reported in these earlier studies: weighted according to the number of records each author examined, the proportion of social classes or geographical regions covered by the records, and the ‘merit’ of their individual research methodologies.

  • Gedcoms & Other Genie Stuff
    Family History Society of Rockingham & Districts Meeting Day Saturday 7 January 2017 Slide 1 GEDCOMs & Other Genie Stuff Slide 2 GEDCOM Files •What Are they? • GEDCOM (an acronym standing for Genealogical Data Communication) is an open de facto specification for exchanging genealogical data between different genealogy software. GEDCOM was developed by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) as an aid to genealogical research. Multimedia The GEDCOM standard supports the inclusion of multimedia objects (for example, photos of individuals). Such multimedia objects can be either included in the GEDCOM file itself (called the "embedded form") or in an external file where the name of the external file is specified in the GEDCOM file (called the "linked form"). Embedding multimedia directly in the GEDCOM file makes transmission of data easier, in that all of the information (including the multimedia data) is in one file, but the resulting file can be enormous. Linking multimedia keeps the size of the GEDCOM file under control, but then when transmitting the file, the multimedia objects must either be transmitted separately or archived together with the GEDCOM into one larger file. Support for embedding media directly was dropped in the draft 5.5.1 standard. Slide 3 GEDCOM Files •What Are they? •Why are they useful • GEDCOM files can be created from any Family History source and used to a) send your family history information from your software to relatives for use in the software they prefer, which may be different to yours b) upload to various website family trees including Ancestry.com, Find My Past and Familysearch c) provide a backup of your family history data which can be kept on a disk/flash drive/computer d) transfer your family history information to different software e.g.

  • COI -- Coefficient of Inbreeding
    COI Coefficient of Inbreeding By Lisa Dubé Forman The science of canine husbandry can sometimes be overwhelming to many fanciers, both rookies and veterans alike. There are many technical considerations Dog Genes Decoded that factor into breeding that can confound the ordinary person. These include, the coefficient of inbreeding (COI), coefficient of relationship (COR), ancestor loss coefficient (AVK), pedigree collapse, inbreeding depression, formula approach, genetic diversity, genetic drift, and genetic loads. By and large, a fancier plans a litter with much anticipation and excitement, for perhaps, waiting in the wings, is the next sublime specimen — one slated for greatness in the wolfhound dog world. A method of approach that on the outset may sound glib, but it really is just an honest assessment as one of the compelling reasons why breeders create is to perfect, enhance and build on a breed. The better part do not wish to worsen or diminish the breed. The average breeder must understand these aforementioned technical considerations, yet, regrettably, they do not. Modern day breeding programs are based on regular appearances of significant names in pedigrees which itself is based on an ideological nineteenth-century attitude that still has a firm foothold in mainstream practices of canine husbandry. Breeders should not proceed with rudimentary information that originated from social attitudes instead of science. Even more, there is the impracticable method of basing decisions on only five generation horizontal pedigrees as sufficient evidence of the coefficient of inbreeding (COI). !1 COI Coefficient of Inbreeding By Lisa Dubé Forman Let us get right to it and begin with a few quick, simple definitions.

  • Tracing Ancestral Lines in the 1700S Using DNA, Part One
    Tracing Ancestral Lines in the 1700s using DNA, Part One Tim Janzen, MD E-mail: [email protected] The science of genetics has changed dramatically in the past 60 years since James Watson and Francis Crick first discovered and described DNA in 1953. Genetics is increasingly being used to help people trace their family histories. The first major application of genetics to a family history puzzle was in 1998 when researchers established that a male Jefferson, either Thomas Jefferson or a close male relative, fathered at least one of Sally Hemings’ children. The first major company to utilize DNA for family history purposes was Family Tree DNA, which was founded by Bennett Greenspan in 2000. Initially the only types of testing that were done were Y chromosome and mitochondrial DNA testing. Over the past 10 years, autosomal DNA testing has moved into a prominent role in genetic genealogy. 23andMe was the first company to offer autosomal DNA testing for genealogical purposes. Their Relative Finder feature (now renamed as DNA Relatives) was quite popular when it was introduced in 2009. This feature allows people to discover genetic cousins they likely had never been in contact with previously. In 2010 Family Tree DNA introduced an autosomal DNA test called Family Finder which is a competing product to 23andMe’s test. In 2012 a third major autosomal DNA test called AncestryDNA was introduced by Ancestry.com. It has been quite popular due its low price and the availability of extensive pedigree charts for many of the people who have been tested by Ancestry.com.
