Kit updates

Currently we have:

-  4 Loewen/Franz kits at the lab waiting for a sale
-  1 Loewen/Franz kit that never got delivered was re-ordered this morning
-  1 Falk/Klassen kit mailed back to the lab on 4/20/16
-  2 Petkau/Klassen kits still outstanding
-  1 Falk/Guenther & Schpansky/Warkentin kit in the mail back to the lab around 4/8/16
-  1 Falk/Klassen kit still outstanding
-  1 Falk/Kroeker kit still outstanding

Yesterday FTDNA announced a sale for DNA Day, so I ordered the Family Finder test for the outstanding Falk/Kroeker kit.  I'll have enough to order the Family Finder test for the Falk/Klassen kit on it's way back to the lab before the end of the sale, so I'll order that one on Tuesday.  :)  Both of those tests will help narrow down what DNA came from Susanna Falk and what probably didn't.  Really excited about those, and very glad I got them on sale before Christmas!

Joy comes in the morning! :P

Called FTDNA first thing this morning.  The kit that was designated for the relative who later refused to test is now going to my grandmother's first cousin.  I spoke to her this morning, and she agreed to test, so I called the lab and got the replacement test sent to her.  I also got in touch with one of my great-aunts who was supposed to have received her kit back in January.  As I suspected, she never received it, so I called the lab back and got a new test sent to her.  :)

So, three out of the four fits from yesterday's post have been taken care of.  Now I just need to get in touch with two of my great-uncles and see if the first intends to test, and the second has received his test.

Ugh.... Not the update I wanted to write....

Apparently FTDNA charged my card for two DNA tests on January 3, and then two more on January 22nd.  I did order all four... except it looks like FTDNA never mailed them!  I know two of them were for sure never delivered.  Now at least one of the four testers has changed her mind and decided not to test.  I'm waiting to hear from FTDNA what my options are for that test.
