The assignment of the A,B,CD,X being the Haplogroups assigned to tribes of American Indians was put in place with racial discrimination in mind and ignores other lesser known tribes. Those who got in bed with the government survived. Others intermixed but their DNA still exist. Racial classifications are racial based and not scientific or genetic.
I almost jumped out of my chair when you mentioned you were of the mt K group - I am K1a 11b and you are the first one I found who mentioned this grouping - I would love to hear a bit more on this group - and their travels to Britain which is where my maternal line descends from. From FTDNA I learned that my DNA family were hunter/gatherers who spent time in Iberia and with my Rh Negative blood type this could posssibly be Basque (I am guessing at a lot of this I know). From 'Iberia" it was a quick jump to Eastern Britain - and Norfolk was where my grqandmother's father (William Rush) was born about 1830. BUT that is a lengthy period of time lapse and records are sketchy here. I am grasping at straws here and looking at everything I can find for the needle in the haystack. .
I don't know more about this haplogroup other than it's the most popular/common one for European descendants. My brother-in-law and I share it but we have no genealogically provable relationship in the past 10 generations.

So, I dont know who my father was. So I did the MTDna and got D1f3 and your telling me it does not matter? If all the women in my haplo group came or started from Eve, then why are we even questioning it? This to does not make sence to me. I was told my mtdna traced bac too about 2,000 years after Eve. Following the D color line it showed the migration of all my Grand......mothers migration into the Americas. Where do i find the Y dna? And why is it only the mans dna counts? This is stupid. The men were worse than women, in wham bam thankyou mam, and off to another woman they would go. My how history repeats iself. Mtdna has to count for something.
look at the origin points of the peoples who inhabited N America on the map at the beginning (haplo A,B,C,D). They are all near shores. Yet the map would make you think the ONLY way they arrived in NA/SA was via "the land bridge". They could have left all points of origin in EurAsia by ship.
My mtDna haplogroup is J2b1a2, which is difficult to research because there is also a Y Haplogroup J2 which gets most the attention from researchers it seems.
Depending on the company you used for testing, they should have given you information about that. If not, you didn't take a test with a reputable company. Family Tree DNA is one I would utilize because they have some great resources for MtDNA and YDNA
Absolutely. L0, L1, L2, and L3 are the oldest maternal haplogroups all of which originated in Africa before the migration into the Middle East. That is some old DNA you are carrying.
My maternal haplogroup is L4 which apparently never left Africa nor did it branch out into any other group. My forefathers came from Belgium to South Africa. How do you explain that? L4 is one of the oldest haplogroups in the world and proceed L0 only by a couple of 1000 years.

Question 🙋🏽♀️ My maternal haplogroup is X2…according to 23andMe. The confusing part is that it says I am a descendant of females from Africa; my mom that claims to be my biological mother is definitely Caucasian. So, Is this a possible mistake or is she lying to me about being my mother?
I'm not an expert, but, it's more like she doesn't know she's not "Caucasian." it seems to me that since the X chromosome doesn't change in a line of women, your mother could have inherited hers from an African woman many generations ago.
Glittermama gave bad advice here. X2 is a haplogroup found in women who are native to West Eurasia, Siberia, and the Americas. It is not African. All 23andme said is that X2 is descended deep in time from an African woman in haplogroup L3, but so are most other haplogroups found in Europe and Asia. The mutations that created X2 were definitely created outside of Africa. Your mother really is Caucasian.
@@user-jr4kc6lu9q Lol, I know she is definitely Caucasian. And since my biological father is showing as Nigerian, that’s why I was so intrigued as to why the X2 haplogroup was listed under her side and not his side.

Nice video. Questions: how can mtDNA help me in my genealogy research? what are the HVR1 and HVR2 tests? My mother's, mother's, mother's, mother (my gr-gr-grandmother) was orphaned as a child. She was born circa 1866-1870 and lived until 1954. She told living members of my family that while she knows her maiden name was Addis, she does not know the names of her parents. How can mtDNA help me? Or can it?
I agree the chance is low, but it's not impossible. I even found my 3rd great grandfather through Y DNA combined with autosomal DNA (and then archive research). I know mtDNA is less accurate than Y DNA, but you never know how lucky you are.

Since I am female and have no brothers, Im still interested in my fathers paternal haplogroup but he is deceased. If I have a male paternal 1st cousin, would his paternal haplogroup be the same as my dad? His father and my father were full brothers.
Thanks! So if I understand correctly, a brother and sister should have the same maternal Haplogroup? I have been watching for any DNA matches to show up with C1a and never seen any on 23andme on GEDmatch. Seems odd, but maybe not enough people tested yet.
my maternal haplogroup is H4a1c1, which is supposedly a rare one. I can't seem to find much info about it online. What's interesting is they recently found a woman who lived in ancient Egypt who was H4a

OR did the neanderthal/early human mix maybe happen in middle east/fertile crescent? Hmmm...Can you suggest anything, thanks :)
I just got my results and all is said was Haplogroup R. I asked about subclaves and was told I have no genetic mutations to show subclaves so it's just the original Haplogroup R. Anyone else ever had that?
@@nivig626 mine was through CRI Genetics. I was just told that I do not match any currently recorded subclaves and the most logical explanation I that my subclave has not been documented yet.
I am not a fan of CRI Genetics because it doesn't really give you very much in-depth information for building your genetic family tree. th-cam.com/video/XEwSfmHTP-Q/w-d-xo.html Test with 23andMe and then transfer your RAW DNA to Family Tree DNA if you want more information about haplogroups.
My mtdna group is T1a13 which is odd because my maternal line goes all back to east Prussia (Poland) ethnic Germans. the matdna group is very common in the middle east which it is only common in 10% of europeans. i'd love to see a reply :)
FamilyTreeDNA's mtDNA Haplotree confirms that T1a13 is found in Poland, Germany, Italy, and England among their customers. But in the GenBank scientific database, only Italy and Azerbaijan are currently represented by T1a13 samples. If you got your assignment from a complete mtDNA sequence test, consider donating your haplogroup T1a13 ethnic German sample to GenBank so it will be better represented, and be sure to include ethnic and geographic indicators. Dr. Ian Logan of England can assist with the process.
I have tested on FTDNA and my mtdna is H11a1. I have a lot of 0 distance matches, but I haven't managed to find any connection to any of them. I suppose it's because a lot of people belong to this haplogroup.
i am finding some web sites that are claiming that mtdna can sometimes be passed by the father, as well ? if so, does this make significant changes to what we think now ? the percentage is low (perhaps 1 in 5000 times).
@@FamilyHistoryFanatics that is kinda what i thought. the way it was explained, was that the male always transfers his mitochondria with the sperm. but there is a defense mechanism in the female, or the egg itself, which destroys the mitochondria in the sperm ? seems sorta odd ? but every once in awhile, that mechanism fails
Im a bit confused. As a female do I come from (or go by) my maternal haplogroup I1a1 or paternal haplogroup which is R1a. Also where would I be from in my ancestry? I know we all go back to Adam and we are all related.
Actually, we can't trace ourselves back to Adam. th-cam.com/video/bh1TDTdGpLo/w-d-xo.html However, key points for female genetics: Maternal haplogroup (mitochondrial DNA) comes through your mother's line Paternal haplogroup (Y-DNA) traces direct paternal ancestry As a female, you inherit BOTH, but can only directly pass down maternal haplogroup to children
With DNA, many things are possible. A parental haplogroup for a match on the maternal side typically suggests that the person is related to you in multiple ways.

@Family History Fanatics & Genealogists Andy, I'm k1a4a1 ... sounds like a Canadian postal code! For the longest time everyone in the family thought grandma was native and asian. Grandma herself said that her family were Philipino, and then I did a DNA test and so did my uncle (her son). No asian DNA at all, and 1% and 2% native for myself and my uncle. Earlier this year, I did a MtDNA test at FTDNA and I'm still trying to understand my results. Surprisingly, I only have 3 matches! My haplogroup has deep roots in France. I'm 83% France according to Ancestry.
MtDNA and yDNA are not as widely used as the autosomal tests, so having few matches there is no surprise. As for the lack of Asian DNA, be aware that many parts of the world are underrepresented in the reference groups that your DNA is compared to. As such, you may still have Asian ethnicity but you do not match those (again a very small sample size) in the comparison group. You can wait to see if that changes. Or you could ignore the ethnicity results and haplogroups and focus on building your family tree using records, interviews with your oldest living relatives, and DNA matching.
Hi, I'm a K too, I'm K1a2a, are there any resources you can point me to, to understand the origins and the spread of this haplogroup - my mother's family are from Northern Ireland - at least 300+ years that we can figure out, I was just trying to figure out, how they got there. Any help would be much appreciated.👍👍
My mom and I both did 23 and me. I am maternal haplogroup H27 and she is R. (She is genetically confirmed to by my mom). How is it possible we have different maternal haplogroups?
I met a DNA enthusiast online who first tested with 23 & me. He later tested with many other DNA testing companies and they gave him a totally different haplogroup than the one given by 23&me. Eventually, it was evident that 23&me was simply wrong. He wrote to 23 & me demanding an explanation but they were pretty defensive about it. Another possibility is that I heard there's roughly a 1 in 5000 chance that you could inherit your maternal haplogroup from your father. They only discovered such phenomenon fairly recently
I’m from India and my maternal haplogroup is U2c1. I read it’s not very common in India. Would you please share what you know about this group. I also have 12.7% British, Irish and Scottish ancestry, which was a big surprise. Does that have any impact or role to play in the haplogroup? Thank you.
I have read an article about a find in a cameroon population that had another maternal line that would go back further than the other known ones. App 400000 years before now. There is still much to find in africa since app 70000 years ago when maybe 3000 people left africa to mix with neandertals and then populate the whole world they left about half a million more or less close related people that inhabited africa.
Ok my older brother and I took a dna test from the same company. We come from the same mother and father but my mtdna haplogroup turned out to be V2 and my brothers turned out to be mtdna haplogroup Y. Why is this? Our dna test came from CRI genetics, we are questioning it because everything we are trying to look up to explain this states we both should have the same mtdna, so what gives?? Can anyone please explain this?
I would recommend that you test with Ancestry (both of you). The first thing you want to confirm is that genetically you have the same biological mother and father. You will see this very clearly because Ancestry can tell you if you are full siblings or half siblings. Then, work you way through the information they have and you'll have a better understanding of your family tree than CRI genetics can't offer.
According to Dr. Ian Logan and YFull MTree, H1af1 and its branches H1af1a and H1af1b are found in various parts of Europe including Poland, Denmark, Norway, Italy, France, and Spain and also among Pamiris in Central Asia and Uyghurs in Northwest China. The branch H1af1b is also found in Sweden and is represented in the GenBank database by sample MF327713. If you are truly in the root level H1af1 rather than this branch, please consider submitting your mtDNA sequence to either GenBank or YFull so that Sweden will be represented there by you.
my mtdna haplo group is H13a2b3. I found in one research of cca 6000 samples 1 identical match H13a2b3 from cyprus. Are we some how related? My autosomal DNA do have 7,9% anatolia, Caucasus, Iranian plato and 4,8 east Mediterranean included Cyprus all those part are covered in H13, H13a2. Around 700ad my maternal side was somewhat from these parts. That's interesting...
Are you related? We're all related, but it's a question of whether you can figure out who your common ancestor was and how many generations back that is. Instead of focusing on the ethnicity results, I would build a family tree based on the records available to you. Then add in genetic relatives from the closest autosomal matches to the more distant. Then, you will have enough information to contribute to Y-DNA and mtDNA family tree building projects.
So I JUST got 23andMe which is autosomal but it gave me a maternal haplogroup.... said it's pretty rare H1e2. If they're not doing mtdna then is their results fairly accurate?
So mine is L3b1a and I matched with a cousin that is L2a1a, does that mean we are related through her dads side? Cause 23 and me says we most likely not related through a female ancestor?
It means your common distant ancestors are potentially from North West Africa (among other regions). To prove paternal or maternal lines, I would try to test other relatives to assist in that question. If you're doing adoptee researcher, that will be harder.
You may have a European connection as b1b for your group is through Russia and for your cousin a branch of hers is through Italy. So there may be a European connection.
does your maternal haplogroup have anything to do with your well-being. like could your haplogroup have more energy then other groups and maybe other groups have more increased strength? or does the mutations in mitochondria so small it really doesn’t matter?
I have a question. My mtdna came back N1. My mother is mixed European English Dutch French German. Is this just really rare? Or was my tested botched. No adoptions as far as I know
Some of my mtDNA haplogroup (H1c3) markers are also in other mtDNA haplogroups - how can it be ascertained conclusively which is my haplogroup? Sorry if this sounds like a rookie question (it IS!), but trying to fathom it all out. TIA
It's quite common for the same markers (mutations) to be found in distant Haplogroups, and this can make building the Haplotree tricky. But the important thing is that to be in H1c3 you should have a particular set of markers. The other Haplogroup will have a difference set of markers, even if one of them happens to be the same as yours. To be in the other Haplogroup you'd have to explain why you don't have the other markers for that Haplogroup.
@@hankdewit7548 Thanks for your reply 🙂 I've been looking at the FamilyTreeDNA mtDNA Haplogroup Mutations page. It says required mutations for H1c3 are A257G and T8473C. I only have the second.

@@tracyarmstrong5386 Join the Facebook group "mtDNA H & HV Group Project - All company chat" and ask your questions there. But in the meantime, check your "Extra Mutations" and "Missing Mutations". The missing mutations are markers that you should have to be in H1c3 but don't.

My husband has a maternal haplogroup=H and his brother who is twenty years older than he has a R. Is that possible or would you conclude they have different mothers?
I'm hella confused.... my 23andme results showed me as like vanilla af, 98.9% European and 0.2% unassigned. However my maternal haplogroup is J2b1, which seems to be rare in europe.... WHAT'S GOING ON?!?!
Rare in Europe doesn't mean not in Europe. So, your maternal ancestors may not had had as many daughters as others. That's luck of the biological draw.
So what would this mean for half siblings? Me and my brother have the same mom & different dads so does that mean we have the same maternal haplogroup? Me and my sister have the same dad but different moms so what haplogroup would we share since girls don’t have a y-chromosome?
Siblings you share the same mother have the same maternal haplogroup. Siblings you share the same father have the same y-DNA haplogroup. HOWEVER, females don't inherit the Y-DNA so they are assumed to be indirectly part of the y-DNA haplogroup of their fathers.
Do your ancestors originate from the Middle East because the j1 hoplogroup is from the Middle East, especially Jordan, Saudi Arabia and Yemen? I am a j1 hologroup. I am from Jordan
How in the world did I, an Irish American, get N1?! I’m very confused. My maternal line goes back to County Roscommon, Ireland when they left during the Potato Famine.
Likely because the match's father's mother has the l3e3b mtDNA. All children inherit mt-DNA from their mothers. So if it's through the match's father, it's really the match's father's mother's DNA>
I'm not sure what you're asking about how Deep do you go. I took a mtDNA test and did nothing much with the results. I focus on autosomal DNA research.
You explained that really well. My mother is K2a, I am K2a5 but my daughter is K2a. How did I end up different. I am also a female and we all used 23andMe.
If you tested at different times, you might have tested with different chips. If that is not the case, then there could have been a miscall on you that for the extra SNP.
If I am a female and I have an unknown match who shares the same maternal haplogroup, does this indicate we are related on my maternal side? Or perhaps we are both descendants from my father's mother?
My maternal haplogroup is C1b and while my family history shows I have Native American ancestry on both sides of my family, my paternal haplogroup is R-CTS4528 which I understand is from Europe. I am of mixed ancestry, about 64% European, 30% Indigenous Americas, so I also have European blood from my mother's side. But why doesn't the indigenous line show up on my father's side? As my DNA test has part of the Native percentage coming from his side. I am assuming that having 4% of my ancestors from sub-Saharan Africa isn't relevant for this discussion nor is 2% from North Africa and Egypt.
The Y chromosome comes from only one of your ancestor each generations. Example, you have 16 great great grandparent but the Y chromosome you have only comes from your father's father's father (1/16). If he is from a specific region and all your 15 others grandparents are from another region the Y chromosome you inherit doesn't account for will not show that.
My haplogroup is H13a2a. 23 and me said it’s rare but maybe it’s just rare for the people that submit it do you need to 23 and me?? I don’t have any close relatives that took the test but as of the second cousins none of them have anything close to the same group. I like to know it more about that and research it so I guess Google research is the best? Anybody else in this form have the same group or close to it?
Honestly, I would recommend you not seek out additional information on the haplogroup until you've determined how your autosomal DNA matches are related. I've found most people spinning their wheels unnecessarily using haplogroup DNA.
Does this mean that me being a man, DNA testing will ignore all of my maternal grandfather lineage as She did not inherit his y cromosome. If so then DNA testing is incomplete as is does not account for all my gene pool. For instance if my dad's father is white and my mother's x lineage is white I would show up as white even though my maternal grandfather was black and his y cromosome got Lost along the way
There are several types of DNA. The y-chromosmome can is only passed down from father to son. Females do not inherit y. The mt-DNA is passed from mother to children and only females pass on this DNA which created your maternal haplogroups. Then there is autosomal DNA that is shared in varying degrees for all of your lines. You can still inherit from your mother's grandfather but the DNA you have will be autosomal.
You still inherit autosomal DNA from your maternal Grandfather. although how much you inherit is a crapshoot. while your haplogroup might point you in a direction. Both my Grandparents are Jamaican.Even though my Grandfathers Grandmother was a Female African Slave his Y DNA is Viking through Scotland While my maternal Grandmother's DNA is African.
I had hoped to hear about maternal haplogroup U5a1b1. My maternal line is predominately of African descent, but I am completely lost with where this haplogroup comes in
I can't cover all the variations. Instead, I'll direct you to the places that can help you learn more. For example, www.familytreedna.com/groups/u-5b/about/results
I don't believe the claims that Mary Magdalene's hair was found and that she belonged to haplogroup K1a1b1a. That sounds like a religious project, not a scientific one. The latest information I got is that K1a1b1a may have originated in southern France and that Jews did not have it before they moved there and married a local French woman. It has not yet been found in ancient Israel. In any case, K1a4a1a and K1a1b1a are very far removed in time.
23 and me gave me U4b1a1. My maternal line past my possible 3rd great grandma and her daughter are all brick walls. We don't even know for sure if she was the mother and there us no father for my 2nd great grandma.

I dont understand my haplogroup I'm indian my haplogroup Mtdna is M30 which I still do not understand where did it come from
Depending on the company you used for testing, they should have given you information about that. If not, you didn't take a test with a reputable company. Family Tree DNA is one I would utilize because they have some great resources for MtDNA and YDNA
Nice im Haplo group L2, does that make my lineage one of the oldest in history?
Absolutely. L0, L1, L2, and L3 are the oldest maternal haplogroups all of which originated in Africa before the migration into the Middle East. That is some old DNA you are carrying.
1:30 is there more on that initial research, where did you get the information from?
more researching coming to light. One great website is haplogroup.org/
My maternal haplogroup is L4 which apparently never left Africa nor did it branch out into any other group. My forefathers came from Belgium to South Africa. How do you explain that? L4 is one of the oldest haplogroups in the world and proceed L0 only by a couple of 1000 years.
Chris the more you did the more you will discover that what was once scientific is not for entertainment. These tests are designed to make money. Please do more research to find a company that is not owned my a big pharma companies and then retest for more accurate results.
Early Afrikaner settlers in South Africa did intermarry a little bit with the local Khoisan peoples. That is why traces of Sub-Saharan DNA can appear in people who are predominantly white.
My Mtdna is M1a1
Question 🙋🏽♀️ My maternal haplogroup is X2…according to 23andMe. The confusing part is that it says I am a descendant of females from Africa; my mom that claims to be my biological mother is definitely Caucasian. So, Is this a possible mistake or is she lying to me about being my mother?
I'm not an expert, but, it's more like she doesn't know she's not "Caucasian." it seems to me that since the X chromosome doesn't change in a line of women, your mother could have inherited hers from an African woman many generations ago.
@@glittermama Your logic makes sense to me…Thank you, ✨ GlitterMama🥰
@@menew_mind_life_designs my pleasure.
Glittermama gave bad advice here. X2 is a haplogroup found in women who are native to West Eurasia, Siberia, and the Americas. It is not African. All 23andme said is that X2 is descended deep in time from an African woman in haplogroup L3, but so are most other haplogroups found in Europe and Asia. The mutations that created X2 were definitely created outside of Africa. Your mother really is Caucasian.
@@user-jr4kc6lu9q Lol, I know she is definitely Caucasian. And since my biological father is showing as Nigerian, that’s why I was so intrigued as to why the X2 haplogroup was listed under her side and not his side. Plus since I don’t look like anyone in my family and she has always been so mean to me, I was trying to find evidence that I may have been abducted at birth by her🤔😳🥴🥹🤯🤷🏽♀️ Thank you for clarification. 🫶🏽
Nice video. Questions: how can mtDNA help me in my genealogy research? what are the HVR1 and HVR2 tests? My mother's, mother's, mother's, mother (my gr-gr-grandmother) was orphaned as a child. She was born circa 1866-1870 and lived until 1954. She told living members of my family that while she knows her maiden name was Addis, she does not know the names of her parents. How can mtDNA help me? Or can it?
It probably can't. It is the DNA of last resort after you have exhausted everything else.
I agree the chance is low, but it's not impossible. I even found my 3rd great grandfather through Y DNA combined with autosomal DNA (and then archive research). I know mtDNA is less accurate than Y DNA, but you never know how lucky you are.
I’m T2b, which puzzles me because my maternal line is fairly direct through Ireland. Any information on why this would be?
Somewhere in your maternal tree there was mother from somewhere else. Princess Diana (and her sons) has a maternal haplogroup from India.
Hey distant family, I’m T2B as well and have mostly British lineage
I'm also T2b, and my mother is from Ireland. T2b appears most frequently in Ireland, Germany and Italy according to the 23andme website

Since I am female and have no brothers, Im still interested in my fathers paternal haplogroup but he is deceased.
If I have a male paternal 1st cousin, would his paternal haplogroup be the same as my dad? His father and my father were full brothers.
Yes, the biological son of your father's full brother would have the same paternal haplogroup as your father. :-)
All male descendants through male descendants will have the same haplogroup.
Yes, you are lucky! I have none and my father has passed as well and I know very little about his heritage at all!
Yes
Hello. I’d like to know how much you may know about the Maternal H haplogroup? I enjoyed this video. Thank you.
Sof we are h1c and turned i to such number does that mean we include bien related to the letters before that so are you l1 and r and k ?
Thanks!
So if I understand correctly, a brother and sister should have the same maternal Haplogroup? I have been watching for any DNA matches to show up with C1a and never seen any on 23andme on GEDmatch. Seems odd, but maybe not enough people tested yet.
Yep.
@@FamilyHistoryFanatics Thanks! Its a very important little tip.
my maternal haplogroup is H4a1c1, which is supposedly a rare one. I can't seem to find much info about it online. What's interesting is they recently found a woman who lived in ancient Egypt who was H4a
H4a1 , she was an ancient egyptian priestess
We're there different groups of people to get these different Haplogroup?
I have a question I am U6b1 and I found my ancestor she is the same as me but she was buried as a mummy and some people dig her up she was Guanches so what I want to know she is a great great great great mother or farther down the line. How close are we related.

Hi, great vid thanks...My maternal haplogroup is j1c1, 99.7% Welsh British, I have Neanderthal + a trace of 0.3% from Mesopotamia, Iran & Caucasus. I'm confused as to how there are no other countries in my map, surely they must have travelled through to Britain from Africa. OR did the neanderthal/early human mix maybe happen in middle east/fertile crescent? Hmmm...Can you suggest anything, thanks :)
I just got my results and all is said was Haplogroup R. I asked about subclaves and was told I have no genetic mutations to show subclaves so it's just the original Haplogroup R. Anyone else ever had that?
I have maternal haplogroup R as well via 23andme. Did you ask 23andme about subclaves?
@@nivig626 mine was through CRI Genetics. I was just told that I do not match any currently recorded subclaves and the most logical explanation I that my subclave has not been documented yet.

Test with 23andMe and then transfer your RAW DNA to Family Tree DNA if you want more information about haplogroups.
My mtdna group is T1a13 which is odd because my maternal line goes all back to east Prussia (Poland) ethnic Germans. the matdna group is very common in the middle east which it is only common in 10% of europeans. i'd love to see a reply :)
I’m exactly the same. T with both sides Prussian.
FamilyTreeDNA's mtDNA Haplotree confirms that T1a13 is found in Poland, Germany, Italy, and England among their customers. But in the GenBank scientific database, only Italy and Azerbaijan are currently represented by T1a13 samples. If you got your assignment from a complete mtDNA sequence test, consider donating your haplogroup T1a13 ethnic German sample to GenBank so it will be better represented, and be sure to include ethnic and geographic indicators. Dr. Ian Logan of England can assist with the process.
its an eastern haplogroup in azerbijan , poland , germany but also in england
Hi,
I would like to know what maternal Haplogroups H stand for?
Thank you.
H was just the next letter of the alphabet as they were naming haplogroups. It doesn't stand for anything.
The same
it's found in northwest Africa
H is the primary Western European Haplogroup. Specifically H1 & H3.
I have tested on FTDNA and my mtdna is H11a1. I have a lot of 0 distance matches, but I haven't managed to find any connection to any of them. I suppose it's because a lot of people belong to this haplogroup.
i am finding some web sites that are claiming that mtdna can sometimes be passed by the father, as well ? if so, does this make significant changes to what we think now ? the percentage is low (perhaps 1 in 5000 times).
No. The percentage is too long to warrant any major rethinking
@@FamilyHistoryFanatics that is kinda what i thought. the way it was explained, was that the male always transfers his mitochondria with the sperm. but there is a defense mechanism in the female, or the egg itself, which destroys the mitochondria in the sperm ? seems sorta odd ? but every once in awhile, that mechanism fails
My mtDNA Group is U5a1a2a . My question is was is the difference between genetic distance level 0 to level 2? Tested on Family Tree DNA Thanks!

I'm from haplogroup l2a1c, can you please tell me something about this?
Actually, I can't. But doing a Google Search should help you out. My job is to share basics and direct you to others for more indepth information.
Hey I'm also from K ! Mine is K2a4. So did our different parts of K go in different directions? Wondering where in Europe more specifically?
Thousands of years ago. So you are probably my 789th cousin twice removed.
Im a bit confused. As a female do I come from (or go by) my maternal haplogroup I1a1 or paternal haplogroup which is R1a.
Also where would I be from in my ancestry? I know we all go back to Adam and we are all related.
Actually, we can't trace ourselves back to Adam. th-cam.com/video/bh1TDTdGpLo/w-d-xo.html
However, key points for female genetics:
Maternal haplogroup (mitochondrial DNA) comes through your mother's line
Paternal haplogroup (Y-DNA) traces direct paternal ancestry
As a female, you inherit BOTH, but can only directly pass down maternal haplogroup to children
How do you find them
Is it possible to share a paternal haplogroup with a DNA match on the maternal side?
With DNA, many things are possible. A parental haplogroup for a match on the maternal side typically suggests that the person is related to you in multiple ways.
My mtDNA haplogroup is J2b1. Is there any real value to testing mtDNA for genealogical purposes?
If you have a specific maternal question and all other options have been exhausted... maybe. But that's a really small maybe.
I think it is VERY important! mtDNA powers all your cells!
It can give you a huge amount of information!

@Family History Fanatics & Genealogists Andy, I'm k1a4a1 ... sounds like a Canadian postal code! For the longest time everyone in the family thought grandma was native and asian. Grandma herself said that her family were Philipino, and then I did a DNA test and so did my uncle (her son). No asian DNA at all, and 1% and 2% native for myself and my uncle. Earlier this year, I did a MtDNA test at FTDNA and I'm still trying to understand my results. Surprisingly, I only have 3 matches! My haplogroup has deep roots in France. I'm 83% France according to Ancestry.
MtDNA and yDNA are not as widely used as the autosomal tests, so having few matches there is no surprise.
As for the lack of Asian DNA, be aware that many parts of the world are underrepresented in the reference groups that your DNA is compared to. As such, you may still have Asian ethnicity but you do not match those (again a very small sample size) in the comparison group. You can wait to see if that changes. Or you could ignore the ethnicity results and haplogroups and focus on building your family tree using records, interviews with your oldest living relatives, and DNA matching.
Omg, I'm K1a4a1e. So close
Hi, I'm a K too, I'm K1a2a, are there any resources you can point me to, to understand the origins and the spread of this haplogroup - my mother's family are from Northern Ireland - at least 300+ years that we can figure out, I was just trying to figure out, how they got there. Any help would be much appreciated.👍👍
Just type it into Google. That's what I do.
Does anyone know where I can find any information on haplogroup i4b? Everything is either to hard to understand or stops at (recently defined).
Thank you for your help. I'm not sure why TH-cam hadn't notified me until now of your reply but thank you.
FamilyTreeDNA does a Full Sequence MTDNA Test.
My mom and I both did 23 and me. I am maternal haplogroup H27 and she is R. (She is genetically confirmed to by my mom). How is it possible we have different maternal haplogroups?
I met a DNA enthusiast online who first tested with 23 & me. He later tested with many other DNA testing companies and they gave him a totally different haplogroup than the one given by 23&me. Eventually, it was evident that 23&me was simply wrong. He wrote to 23 & me demanding an explanation but they were pretty defensive about it.
Another possibility is that I heard there's roughly a 1 in 5000 chance that you could inherit your maternal haplogroup from your father. They only discovered such phenomenon fairly recently
Please if you can provide us more information regarding This Haplogroup L2a1d1
I'm not a haplogroup researcher. I would direct you to Google to learn more.
I’m from India and my maternal haplogroup is U2c1. I read it’s not very common in India. Would you please share what you know about this group. I also have 12.7% British, Irish and Scottish ancestry, which was a big surprise. Does that have any impact or role to play in the haplogroup? Thank you.
I have read an article about a find in a cameroon population that had another maternal line that would go back further than the other known ones. App 400000 years before now. There is still much to find in africa since app 70000 years ago when maybe 3000 people left africa to mix with neandertals and then populate the whole world they left about half a million more or less close related people that inhabited africa.
Ok my older brother and I took a dna test from the same company. We come from the same mother and father but my mtdna haplogroup turned out to be V2 and my brothers turned out to be mtdna haplogroup Y. Why is this? Our dna test came from CRI genetics, we are questioning it because everything we are trying to look up to explain this states we both should have the same mtdna, so what gives?? Can anyone please explain this?
I would recommend that you test with Ancestry (both of you). The first thing you want to confirm is that genetically you have the same biological mother and father. You will see this very clearly because Ancestry can tell you if you are full siblings or half siblings. Then, work you way through the information they have and you'll have a better understanding of your family tree than CRI genetics can't offer.
My mtDNA haplogroup is H1af1. What can you tell me about this haplogroup? My direct maternal line traces back to Sweden into the late 1590s.
According to Dr. Ian Logan and YFull MTree, H1af1 and its branches H1af1a and H1af1b are found in various parts of Europe including Poland, Denmark, Norway, Italy, France, and Spain and also among Pamiris in Central Asia and Uyghurs in Northwest China. The branch H1af1b is also found in Sweden and is represented in the GenBank database by sample MF327713. If you are truly in the root level H1af1 rather than this branch, please consider submitting your mtDNA sequence to either GenBank or YFull so that Sweden will be represented there by you.
my mtdna haplo group is H13a2b3. I found in one research of cca 6000 samples 1 identical match H13a2b3 from cyprus. Are we some how related? My autosomal DNA do have 7,9% anatolia, Caucasus, Iranian plato and 4,8 east Mediterranean included Cyprus all those part are covered in H13, H13a2. Around 700ad my maternal side was somewhat from these parts. That's interesting...
Are you related? We're all related, but it's a question of whether you can figure out who your common ancestor was and how many generations back that is.
Instead of focusing on the ethnicity results, I would build a family tree based on the records available to you. Then add in genetic relatives from the closest autosomal matches to the more distant. Then, you will have enough information to contribute to Y-DNA and mtDNA family tree building projects.
I found out that my maternal haplogroup is R9c. Did that start in the Middle East as well?
I don't know specifically, but you can just google the haplogroup and find out what we know about its origin.

Not unless you're related to their mother through her maternal line as well. Only mother's pass on mtDNA

It means your common distant ancestors are potentially from North West Africa (among other regions). To prove paternal or maternal lines, I would try to test other relatives to assist in that question. If you're doing adoptee researcher, that will be harder.
You may have a European connection as b1b for your group is through Russia and for your cousin a branch of hers is through Italy. So there may be a European connection.
does your maternal haplogroup have anything to do with your well-being. like could your haplogroup have more energy then other groups and maybe other groups have more increased strength? or does the mutations in mitochondria so small it really doesn’t matter?
I have a question. My mtdna came back N1. My mother is mixed European English Dutch French German. Is this just really rare? Or was my tested botched. No adoptions as far as I know
N1 is of Middle Eastern Origin
Some of my mtDNA haplogroup (H1c3) markers are also in other mtDNA haplogroups - how can it be ascertained conclusively which is my haplogroup? Sorry if this sounds like a rookie question (it IS!), but trying to fathom it all out. TIA
It's quite common for the same markers (mutations) to be found in distant Haplogroups, and this can make building the Haplotree tricky. But the important thing is that to be in H1c3 you should have a particular set of markers. The other Haplogroup will have a difference set of markers, even if one of them happens to be the same as yours. To be in the other Haplogroup you'd have to explain why you don't have the other markers for that Haplogroup.
@@hankdewit7548 Thanks for your reply 🙂 I've been looking at the FamilyTreeDNA mtDNA Haplogroup Mutations page. It says required mutations for H1c3 are A257G and T8473C. I only have the second.

I'm hella confused....
my 23andme results showed me as like vanilla af, 98.9% European and 0.2% unassigned.
However my maternal haplogroup is J2b1, which seems to be rare in europe.... WHAT'S GOING ON?!?!
Rare in Europe doesn't mean not in Europe. So, your maternal ancestors may not had had as many daughters as others. That's luck of the biological draw.
Maybe yours originated in eastern Africa and migrated to the same regions as mine did.
So what would this mean for half siblings? Me and my brother have the same mom & different dads so does that mean we have the same maternal haplogroup? Me and my sister have the same dad but different moms so what haplogroup would we share since girls don’t have a y-chromosome?
Siblings you share the same mother have the same maternal haplogroup. Siblings you share the same father have the same y-DNA haplogroup. HOWEVER, females don't inherit the Y-DNA so they are assumed to be indirectly part of the y-DNA haplogroup of their fathers.
My maternal haplogrouo is L1b1a
Yours may be Mediterranean.
My mtdna is J1c8 if any one can point me into the right direction
Mine is J2*, according to the Genographuc Project DNA test.
Which mtDNA test did you take?
Do your ancestors originate from the Middle East because the j1 hoplogroup is from the Middle East, especially Jordan, Saudi Arabia and Yemen? I am a j1 hologroup. I am from Jordan
How in the world did I, an Irish American, get N1?! I’m very confused. My maternal line goes back to County Roscommon, Ireland when they left during the Potato Famine.

So my mom is l3e3b1..a match of hers shares 257cm and she is l3e3b...but my mom matches her through the matches own father.
How is that possible?
mtdna I is very rare
Likely because the match's father's mother has the l3e3b mtDNA. All children inherit mt-DNA from their mothers. So if it's through the match's father, it's really the match's father's mother's DNA>
How Deep do you go. I am L3e4a but had snps down the tree.
I'm not sure what you're asking about how Deep do you go. I took a mtDNA test and did nothing much with the results. I focus on autosomal DNA research.
You explained that really well. My mother is K2a, I am K2a5 but my daughter is K2a. How did I end up different. I am also a female and we all used 23andMe.
If you tested at different times, you might have tested with different chips. If that is not the case, then there could have been a miscall on you that for the extra SNP.

If I am a female and I have an unknown match who shares the same maternal haplogroup, does this indicate we are related on my maternal side? Or perhaps we are both descendants from my father's mother?
You are related on the maternal side only, though the connection could be very distant. Your father cannot pass on his mtDNA.
My maternal haplogroup is C1b and while my family history shows I have Native American ancestry on both sides of my family, my paternal haplogroup is R-CTS4528 which I understand is from Europe. I am of mixed ancestry, about 64% European, 30% Indigenous Americas, so I also have European blood from my mother's side. But why doesn't the indigenous line show up on my father's side? As my DNA test has part of the Native percentage coming from his side. I am assuming that having 4% of my ancestors from sub-Saharan Africa isn't relevant for this discussion nor is 2% from North Africa and Egypt.
Mine is A2 and my paternal haplogroup is R-M167
The Y chromosome comes from only one of your ancestor each generations. Example, you have 16 great great grandparent but the Y chromosome you have only comes from your father's father's father (1/16). If he is from a specific region and all your 15 others grandparents are from another region the Y chromosome you inherit doesn't account for will not show that.
What is the oldest haplogroup alive still?
I'm not qualified to answer that question. I don't go that deep into Haplogroup history.
My haplogroup is H13a2a. 23 and me said it’s rare but maybe it’s just rare for the people that submit it do you need to 23 and me?? I don’t have any close relatives that took the test but as of the second cousins none of them have anything close to the same group. I like to know it more about that and research it so I guess Google research is the best? Anybody else in this form have the same group or close to it?
Honestly, I would recommend you not seek out additional information on the haplogroup until you've determined how your autosomal DNA matches are related. I've found most people spinning their wheels unnecessarily using haplogroup DNA.
Does this mean that me being a man, DNA testing will ignore all of my maternal grandfather lineage as She did not inherit his y cromosome. If so then DNA testing is incomplete as is does not account for all my gene pool. For instance if my dad's father is white and my mother's x lineage is white I would show up as white even though my maternal grandfather was black and his y cromosome got Lost along the way
There are several types of DNA. The y-chromosmome can is only passed down from father to son. Females do not inherit y.
The mt-DNA is passed from mother to children and only females pass on this DNA which created your maternal haplogroups.
Then there is autosomal DNA that is shared in varying degrees for all of your lines. You can still inherit from your mother's grandfather but the DNA you have will be autosomal.
You still inherit autosomal DNA from your maternal Grandfather. although how much you inherit is a crapshoot. while your haplogroup might point you in a direction. Both my Grandparents are Jamaican.Even though my Grandfathers Grandmother was a Female African Slave his Y DNA is Viking through Scotland While my maternal Grandmother's DNA is African.
I had hoped to hear about maternal haplogroup U5a1b1. My maternal line is predominately of African descent, but I am completely lost with where this haplogroup comes in
I can't cover all the variations. Instead, I'll direct you to the places that can help you learn more. For example, www.familytreedna.com/groups/u-5b/about/results
@@FamilyHistoryFanatics thank you!
I am from the Hapolgroup W3...
Would it be possible to discuss the origins of " U " group? I am U3B1 ( actually U3B1b1)

Okay, so my haplogroup is K1a4a1a . I read somewhere the Mary Magdalene was in haplogroup K. Does this mean I’m related to her? Can you clarify?
That I can not. I would suggest using Google to search your Haplogroup further. I just give you the basics to get started.
I don't believe the claims that Mary Magdalene's hair was found and that she belonged to haplogroup K1a1b1a. That sounds like a religious project, not a scientific one. The latest information I got is that K1a1b1a may have originated in southern France and that Jews did not have it before they moved there and married a local French woman. It has not yet been found in ancient Israel. In any case, K1a4a1a and K1a1b1a are very far removed in time.
23 and me gave me U4b1a1. My maternal line past my possible 3rd great grandma and her daughter are all brick walls. We don't even know for sure if she was the mother and there us no father for my 2nd great grandma.
You can to cast wide nets in attempts to crack the brick walls. Good luck. Hopefully someday something will move your research forward.
are there any haplogroups that originated in Europe?
I believe Haplogroup H

my mtDNA is F1c. I cannot really find much about it other than it is rare.
Wish I could help.
