Roy, as a dedicated member of the R-U106 project (through my brother's test, with EKA in Germany) I am well aware of the problems Globetrekker has with testers from the continent which

Re: Is your EKA information accurate?
Brian, Iain, Some notions that spring to mind with regard to propelling the project forward. I met Skoglund when I visited the Reich lab back in 2014, and Reich sat in on the discussion. Probably too

Re: TMRCA of R-L151 and timing its growth
Hi Iain This is a really impressive piece of work to be pulled together. I do remember that in September this year there was a 4-day Symposium at Heidelberg in Germany held under the auspices of

Re: Is your EKA information accurate?
Let me give a further comment on this issue - as it is important and will continue to swirl around for the foreseeable future. At the bottom of any individual's STR results is this disclaimer posted

Re: Is your EKA information accurate?
After reading the many comments to my post, I am inclined to agree with Brian that project administrators should be able to interpret a matching group's Y-DNA results and assign the common ancestor

Re: Is your EKA information accurate?
That is a fascinating project, Belinda, and demonstrates what can be accomplished with a few motivated participants. I am curious to know what your thoughts are on the discrepancy between the

Re: Is your EKA information accurate?
Sorry. Useless is the wrong word. Less useful than a complete record would be more exact. I am admin of the Stewart DNA Project, where we are lucky enough to be able to define royal Stewart

Re: Is your EKA information accurate?
Hi Iain, If I am reading your pdf correctly, the number of R-U106 people in Ireland is greatly overstated at 1.55M. The population of Ireland is 5.262 M. Presuming half male, then the male population

Hi folks, ? Thanks for the input. ? Brian - you'll remember that many of these changes were done in response to GDPR. Sadly, legal fears always trump reasonable requests, since a few bad actors

Re: Is your EKA information accurate?
You need a complete paper trail, with no gaps, back to your Earliest Known Ancestor. Your DNA might show you are a match with a known individual (like King Robert II of Scotland, for example) but if

Re: Is your EKA information accurate?
Joe, ?? To second what Vince said, you are inferring that your ancestry goes back to Wiltshire, but you only know that it goes back to Plymouth (if you have suitable DNA matches with roots there).
