Nearing the end of the month, I'd say progress is at a snail's pace instead of the slow and steady turtles I mentioned in August. I've managed to add four to my group of matches on the O'Brien-Bridget line, so now we're at 75. I still have the cluster of Pennsylvania O'Briens and I am trying to learn how to place them into a WATO tree.
I am also still waiting for MyHeritage to release version 2 (or 2 point something) of their ethnicity estimates, while AncestryDNA's 2024 update will likely be released very soon. I am hoping new features on matches grouped to a subregion or new Ancestral Journeys might shed some light on these brick walls in my tree. Last year's update was released (or at least I was able to view the results I administer) on 2 October 2023, which gives me some hope that we'll see these refined totals and new features in the coming days.
Next week I'm joining the first of the DNA Study Group sessions and looking forward to using the skills gained in the classes to work with all of these matches of matches and DNA data.
