A.) Yes on both counts. Only males can take the YDNA test. The women indicated in the results table are the researchers who recruited a family male to take the test for them. Usually, in this kind of scenario, the tester has no interest in genealogy and doesn’t want to be including in the information. Other times, the tester wants to remain anonymouse. In these cases, I indicate the researcher instead of the tester.
