Here is my DNA Painter home page:
3) Since I have made a chromosome map, it shows me my status. When I click on the link for my name, I can see my painted Chromosome Map (two screens):
My 23 chromosomes are listed on the left. Each chromosome has two lines (except my X) - the light blue line is from my father, the light pink line is from my mother. I only received my X chromosome from my mother because I am male.
All of the other colors are from my DNA matches for whom I have known common ancestors. The color key on the bottom right shows a different color for the known common ancestors of my DNA matches and myself. For instance, the bottom common ancestors with the purple color are my grandparents, Frederick W. Seaver and Alma Bessie Richmond, who are my father s parents.
