Hi Ian and Brian, Thank you for the feedback and advice. The terminal haplogroup is?R-BY194284. This is a similar situation to my Gleave line in which I was all alone? on R-BY55111 for several years

Re: New Big Y results; The Foster/Forrester ...........Wallace connection
This will become a not uncommon problem. I have had to tell one family in America fairly recently that they have an NPE event around 1675 in America - and they are all really Swanns - all of them. We

Re: Geographic Projects at FTDNA
Speculations based on phylogeography of the Y-Chromosome are a great way to learn some British history. But I would always remind you of the "Africans in Yorkshire" paper from about 2007 - which

KevinA Big Y test would show the bard how far back his DF98 branch was in Ireland!! Also, FTDNA are dragging their heels with the Y info from the Family Finder tests. Z156 went from 4,516 to 4,564

Re: Help with interpreting surprising yDNA results (Irish)
A good idea might be to do a Y 37 DNA test with FT. The matches list should show whether you are a Daly or some other surname a few centuries ago! -- Kevin Terry

Hi Mike, By R-194282, I presume you mean R-BY194284? I don't know what searching you've done for your 3*great-grandfather's ancestry. I'm expecting you've already looked for records on Scotland's

Re: Help with interpreting surprising yDNA results (Irish)
Hi Noah, I'm not sure about R-P312 in Scandinavia - it's a little outside my realm of knowledge. Certainly R-P312 seems to have travelled west before R-U106, so got a foothold on the Atlantic Coasts

Re: Help with interpreting surprising yDNA results (Irish)
Thank you for the clarification Iain. Do you think that most of the elevated P312 in Norway/Denmark vis-¨¤-vis Sweden can be attributed to increased Bell Beaker influence in those areas? Best, Noah

Re: Help with interpreting surprising yDNA results (Irish)
Hi Noah, I wasn't intending to say that R-P312 was more or less common than R-U106 per se, merely that I + R1a + R-P312 represents most Viking Y-DNA, while R-U106 is only a small fraction. Indeed,
