Dec 25, 2018 at 0:57 comment added Cyn P.S. When you're on AncestryDNA and you go to your niece's match page with you, there is a tab for "shared matches." Your potential half-sister should show up as also related to her. There is then a "compare" button, but I can't test it because I keep getting an error when I try. But you might do better.
Dec 25, 2018 at 0:48 comment added Cyn Give folks some time. You may be okay with all this but it's obvious the rest of your family isn't. You've basically proved that your mom had children with two different men (we don't know why or any of the details) but all the children were presented as being from one man. That's pretty shocking for most people and something people go to great lengths to hide. You may just have to sit on it for a while. Good luck. I hope they come around.

Dec 23, 2018 at 17:26 comment added Cyn Also, what is the match between you and your niece? This may help narrow down if her father is your full or half sibling (sounds like full but let's crunch the numbers).
Dec 23, 2018 at 17:24 comment added Cyn @JJoan yes you can (and should!) add in the screenshot from Biogene with the names removed. That would be helpful.

Dec 22, 2018 at 18:36 comment added RobertShaw @JJoan, I would like to ask about your Biogene testing. Did you two send biological samples, such as cheek swabs? What type of test did you two order? What was the wording of the result?
Dec 22, 2018 at 18:16 comment added RobertShaw @JJoan, what you've done is good, and "PolyGeo" wasn't asking you to do anything; they were addressing "EllenSpertus" in reference to her first comment.
Dec 22, 2018 at 15:35 comment added J Joan I am a novice to this website as well. Don't understand the "posting as a minimal length answer". Should I have posted elsewhere? Keep me straight!! Thanks
Dec 22, 2018 at 7:46 comment added PolyGeo @EllenSpertus I think your comment contains just enough content to be worth posting as a minimal length answer.

Make clear that this is a question about DNA matches
Dec 22, 2018 at 4:11 comment added Ellen Spertus The differing results are very unusual. Maybe let the companies know about the contradictory results? If there was no error, one of you might be a human chimera. Please let us know what you eventually discover.
