Analysis:
Kit 193719 is matching two Akin testers. N79417 at a one-step difference 37-markers and the other at 7-steps, suggesting that Akin may be a phonetic variation of Aiken. Given the phonetic similarity, Akin and variations may be related to the Aiken surname and a possible Sept of the House of Gordon. See: Akin surname project.
If the Aiken and Akin do have a common male progenitor, it may be inferred from the 7-step difference that this Aiken line is very old. In such case, there is a 77.2% probability of the 7-step difference kit and kit 193719 sharing a commonancestry within 20-generations. Also, interesting to note that 193719 and N79417 do match the Seton-Gordons on the first 12-markers, but this does not seem to extend to higher resolutions.

Analysis:
Kit 159140 is very close matches with both Gordons and other Septs.  Sharing 31 of 37 markers with kit 167816 belonging to the Adams Sept above, as well as kit 96713 of the Sir William Gordons, in comparing 37 markers, the probability that kit no. 159140 with 167816 and 96713
shared a common ancestor within the last 24-generations is 85.75% and 79.93%, respectively.

Analysis:
Kit 127855 is a distantly matches 56 of 67 markers with kits 111972, 131691, 145232 and 171836 belonging to the J&T Gordons. In comparing 67 markers, the probability that kit no. 159140 and these other 11-step matches shared a common ancestor within the last 24-generations is 48.46%.
  A common ancestor may be found as recently as 22-generations ago (roughly 450 years).  Albeit, probability of a common ancestor increases further back in time.

Analysis:
Kit 29839 is a distantly matches 20 of 25 markers with kits 176939 and 161131 both in the Yet-to-be-Classified Gordon group. In comparing 25 markers, the probability that kit no. 29839, 176939 and 161131 shared a common ancestor within the last 24-generations is 56.21% and 23.74%, respectively. To determine more matches or focus in on a timeframe of the shared ancestor, an upgrade to at least 37-markers is highly recommended.

Analysis:
Kit N71699 - 12-markers is too low of a resolution to determine possible matches. At this level, there is a one-step difference with the Lawrie Sept and two-steps from several Gordons.

Analysis:
Kit 185156 most closely matches Huntley kits 9276 and 185156 in 36 and 35 of 37 markers, respectively, but also very closely matches 53 of 67 markers with kit 96595 belonging to a Gordon. In comparing 67 markers, the probability that kit no. 185156 and 96595 shared a common ancestor within the last 26-generations is 50.89%.
