I think the matches are oftentimes better on FamilyTreeDNA. My highest match (and I have a similar background to GC Doe) on FamilyTreeDNA is 68 cm higher than on GEDMatch.
The following have been ruled out:Is there any names on rule out list on his Names page? Charley Project added some updates on Steven Hafer page and he looks strikingly similar to Grant Co John Doe, was he ruled out?
Thank you for answering, I am surprised Steven Hafer is not on the rule out list, as he went missing from the same state just a month before Grant co John Doe was found.The following have been ruled out:
Christopher Winkler
Jerry Plaster
Harvey Kays
I added Steven to this list I sent to the ME. I’ve not heard back from her. I really think this could be Jeffrey Gerald, so I submitted him to both the ME and Doe Network. I’ve not heard anything about him either.
Yeah! I’m usually a tad more patient when it comes to cases being handled by DDP and such. Just a tad though,Thank you for answering, I am surprised Steven Hafer is not on the rule out list, as he went missing from the same state just a month before Grant co John Doe was found.
The fact you did not receive any answer, gives me hope that may be DDP had identified him before you sent an email (but i am used to be too optimistic)
You have done such an awesome job for this UID!Yeah! I’m usually a tad more patient when it comes to cases being handled by DDP and such. Just a tad though,, the waiting is the hardest!
I’ve been afraid to check those new metersThe DDP team has added a scale to show the progress of fundraising for all the DDP fund cases. Grand Co John Doe has less than 20% of the goal so far

Interesting, he has a LOT of Baltic ancestry compared to most other Does.
Probably an indication of German descent, that usually shows as high amount of "Baltic" admix in Gedmatch. Does not normally mean the person was Latvian, Estonian or Lithuanian.
