What is the significance of DYS439=13 with respect to Irish, Scots, or Welsh genetic markers? I see that most seem to have DYS439=12 at this location, yet the ...
Cíonaodh, I thought someone more knowledgeable than me might reply. My own views are that there is no significance. 439 is a marker which is inclined to...

Hi Colleen, Certainly the 3 with the odd mutation at DYS439 should help them find a common ancestor. However, only a few of the clan of 20 can connect, and...
HI Peter, My suggestion is to hang in there. When we first started the Fitzpatrick DNA study in 2000, we only had 13 people. I dont think any were related...
Part of my own problem is that like many Americans in the South, we do not have family histories that go back very far. I am at present only able to trace my...

For what it's worth, I just received my U series advanced test results back. I am U106+, and now FTDNA classifies my "deep" paternal ancestry as R1b1c9. ...
Kenneth, That news seem to clarify the situation and solve a few problems!! It is believed that R1b1c9 came in from Friesia or modern days Netherlands with the...

Hi Aly, Looking at your results in ySearch it would certainly appear that your ancestors may have had Scottish origins before arriving in Ireland, certainly...
Aly, Have you joined the Cooper project? I see they have over 200 members. Your father's DYS390=22 caught my eye. I have over a hundred Byrne/Burns scattered...
