A NOTABLE RSBC WHICH WE REJECTED
The RSBC we refer to is the 752721 location on chromosome 1:

This shows an amazing multiple match on Cr1 location between 5 of my set of
12 relatives - TP, Je, SW, RM and RF. The other 7 - Ju, JG, E, A, B, MD and
J do not appear. I used Qmatch with 3cM and P=3 and found 1963
segment-matches - 9 of which appear in the above screenshot with the central
7 marked in yellow comprising the amazing multiple just referred to.
Hoping that the Cr1 location 752721 was not a major genetic signpost which
might rule it out as a marker specific to my set of relatives, I ran a check
on GEDmatch using Segment Search at default settings (eg 7cM) for the 12 but
noted a large number of segments matching each relative and commencing on location 752721 Cr1 as
follows:

None of the matches for each relative include any of the other 11
relatives, nor did any of the people in each list appear in any other list!
A lefthand core of the 7 yellow 3cM segments above
obviously forms the lefthand part of the 282 larger 7cM segments covered in the table. Each of Ju,
RF, B and J show a distinct addition with each making 3rd party matches very
readily,
but the other 8 show less common distinct additions especially TP whose
addition finds no matches at all. Nevertheless, as it seems obvious
that the site (or rather its very common lefthand sub-3cM core) could be
archaic, we continue with our rejection of it as relevant to deciding family
relationships in our timeframe. We do this even though GEDmatch, in response to my approach
to it on this, advised that location 752721 on
Cr1 had no known genetic significance.
