Those of us who are heavy users of GEDmatch are sorely missing the wonderful segment triangulation tool, which hasn't yet been restored since the relocation of GEDmatch to new servers. In order to be able to continue identifying triangulated groups with DNA matches, I'm using a workaround, by expanding what I previously did for the X-chromosome (Chr 23 in the figure below), which isn't included in the segment triangulation tool. In addition, segment triangulation on GEDmatch is limited to the highest 200 matches, so this method can also be used for lower level matches, even when the segment triangulation tool is back.

My main family tree is a public tree on Ancestry.com, which I can synchronize easily with the corresponding tree in Family Tree Maker on my hard-drive.

But I've created a few image icons that are sometimes helpful to use, and I'm making these available for download.
