Hello all,
Thank you for adding me to the group.
Is there anyone that can help me on this please, I would very much like to get in touch with the person and find out what connection there is between us.
I have matched with someone who has tested with gesedna AT 23.4Cm not a huge DNA match but I'm very interested in finding out who I match with, I did try to send a email to the person [ via GedMatch ] but it bounced.
Any help would be welcomed.
Aussie

I'm sure you've done this but have you triple checked the email address is correct in your email?
It may be the person didn't want to be contacted so put in a fake email address.

The main benefit of DNA sites are the algorithms which read the DNA groups or nucleotide sequences and matches with other enrolled members.This Forum, being a advice group of family history enthusiasts, advises people how to search for their genealogy taking advantage of the Chinese custom of studying and recording their lineage.
Very few people here emphasize or memorize their nucleotide sequences or haplogroups because of the small sample size from Mainland China. I hope I am wrong and someone will contact you.
Usually once we help someone break down a genealogical brick wall, they stop following this forum. The people seeking help here are rather transient.

Hello Aussie,
Have you collected any other family history information? Have you interviewed any of your family members? Is there someone in your family who mentioned that your family has Asian roots?

Thanks davidr8 & Doug, yes I have tried to send quite a few times..looks like I can only hope for a reply. oh by the way I have emailed Gedmatch people asking them what they can make of "our match" cheers aussie For what it's worth, I've emailed about six matches from GedMatch. Precisely one returned my email. And that match turned out to be in error.
Not very helpful but you aren't alone.
Part of my challenge may be that I am do not speak or write Mandarin or Cantonese so I have to rely on Google translate.
Thus I've likely insulted the folks I've emailed :-(
I'd be interested in hearing about better ways to translate English.
