I would be delighted and most grateful to hear from any direct matrilineal descendant of Ansela van de Caep, who has had their mtDNA tested.

Kind regards
Delia Robertson

Four Geni mtDNA descendants listed on this project: http://www.geni.com/projects/South-African-mtDNA-Female-Progenitors...

Thanks.

Delia Robertson How would you like to make contact?

I am contacting you about this profile: https://www.geni.com/people/Ansela-van-de-Caap-SM-PROG/600000000248...

I refer: :
"According to a South African geneticist who had been consulted, there is currently insufficient complete genome data available for African mt-DNA to compare Ansela’s complete L0a1b2 genome with, and attempt to identify a more specific origin. However, increasing availability over time of data for complete mitochondrial genomes in Africa may make this possible at a future date."

My Aunt, ( Private) , who is a matrilineal descendants of Ansela, is currently living in Australia. She is 70 years old and not in great health.

It was her test, through Wits, that previously: "indicated that the Campher stammoeder’s maternal line is African. (Ansela's) descendants have been identified as belonging to African mitochondrial haplogroup L0a1b2. (GENI “South Africa mt-DNA female progenitors” project, https://www.geni.com/projects/South-African-mtDNA-Female-Progenitor... )

Why don't we get her to do a more in-depth DNA test?

I need someone to advise which test to do and to help me co-manage this project.

If this is important enough please contact me asap.
