GEDmatch is a free DNA comparison and analysis website for people who have tested their autosomal DNA using a direct-to-consumer genetic testing company, such as 23andMe, or have a custom file from other sources. Testers download their DNA data file from the testing company, and then upload it to GEDmatch. GEDmatch processes the file, adds it to a genealogical database, and provides applications for matching and further analysis. Because GEDmatch aggregates files from all testing companies, your potential for matches is greater.

Everybody should aspire to be in the book of life

I absolutely love it! It took ages to understand it but perseverance paid off and I now pay monthly for Tier 1 as it offers so much. I've broken down so many proverbial 'brick walls' which I could never have done by comparing the chromosomes of people I suspected of being related to. GEDmatch (combined with DNA Painter) is a 'wonder tool'! There are many good online tutorials and user groups on Facebook which are a great help. I couldn't imagine giving it up now.

I use GEDmatch every single day. There are so many options to what is possible. I have learned so much about myself and my families. Additionally, i have made wonderful friends among my matches! I do not feel fearful sharing on the site. What would make it better is if more people would download their family trees (GEDcoms). You would not believe all the possibilities available once your family tree is downloaded.

The information I gleaned from this site is second to none. GEDmatch is an excellent site to research your roots and origins as well as locate blood relatives.

GEDmatch is our lifeline to doing family and group DNA research and discovery. Safe and protected, but yet we can use the various research models to investigate our ancestry. If you belong to a family Ancestry group, you have to have GEDmatch!

Great suggestion to join an Ancestry group on GEDmatch!

GEDmatch has enabled me to verify relationships between ancestors by connecting me to already verified descendants.

A very useful site for comparing and finding dna matches. I especially like the Ancestor projects and the comparing two kits tool, as well as the absolutely necessary one-to-one autosomal tool.

Mam złożone autosomalne wyniki moich najbliższych i dzieki temu poznaje inne osoby ,które też są z nami spokrewnione. Rozpoznaje z jakiego pnia drzewa rodzinnego pochodzą nowe poznane podobieństwa.
