HaRav Shabty Ashkenazi HaCohen Katz, the "SHaCH" - Note to Future Researchers

I'm in the process of being tested, but shouldn't we also get yDNA from a descendant of one of the shachs other sons?

Hello Eli,

Besides your kit, there are several other potential Shakh lines in the testing pipeline, which is a good place to be. Supposing the results place each line being tested in a different group? Then we will want further confirmation of the correct one. The reason to spread the word in a post like this is 'redundancy'. The more confirmations, the surer the conclusion. This post is a way of keeping the lines of communication open to researchers who may happen to read this profile in the future. If it happens that the currently awaited tests close the book on the question, then I will follow-up with a post to this discussion with that information.

Keep Well,
Adam
