Title: Family Tree DNA Learning Center

If you've used the Family Tree DNA kit and are lost with what to do with the results....this might help!  https://www.familytreedna.com/learn/y-dna-snp-testing-haplogroups/ (https://www.familytreedna.com/learn/y-dna-snp-testing-haplogroups/)

The Family Tree DNA testing gives more information than the Ancestry and interfaces more easily to find possible family matches. If you did yours through FTM, you should be able to upload your info to the http://www.ysearch.org/ website and find your possible matches. I'm not familiar with the BigY test, but those who have done 12,24,37,67, and 111 markers can upload their results. Once you do, you will be able to search by haplogroup, last name and (I think) geographic area.
