I took the "Big Y" test on FTDNA, but it still left me just as confused as before. I recently discovered my 3rd great grandfather (born 1850) was adopted, so my "real" surname is not what I thought it was. I wish I could figure out who his biological father was, but it seems like an exercise in futility.
It is solvable because I have a similar story. Contact me and I’ll tell you how to solve. My Grandfather was adopted so I had to figure it out. It took awhile but I solved.
There are three kinds of test for DNA for the purpose of genealogical research. Y-DNA, mt-DNA, and autosomal DNA. I'll post some messages briefly describing each as replies to this post.
Y-DNA: Y-DNA is only possessed by males. (BUT, Ladies, keep reading!) It's passed down basically unchanged, except for slight unfrrquent changes which MAY happen. On the other hand, it may be passed down completely unchanged for multiple generations. For this reason, Y-DNA testing is able to go WAY back in time/generations to find people who share a common paternal ancestor with you. LADIES - any male relative descended from your father or his father (or even HIS father!) should still have the same Y-DNA, so as long as there are no "non paternal events", like adoptions or "momma's baby, daddy's MAYbe", then there is no reason you can't get a brother, paternal uncle, or paternal-line cousin, to provide the cheek swab for you to do your test/research.
MT-DNA: Mitochondrial DNA is passed down ONLY by the mother, unchanged by the father's contributions, and mostly (but not totally) unchanged by time. It changes, yes, but INCREDIBLY slowly. You should have no trouble (other than the usual troubles of records, etc.) connecting with tenth, fifteenth, even twentieth cousins! The mother's (and her mother's, and her mother's, and her mother's, and so on!) mt-DNA is passed down to BOTH her sons and daughters, so both males and females are able to take this test using their own cheek swab samples.
Autosomal DNA Autosomal DNA tests can be taken by anyone, much like mt-DNA tests. Autosomal DNA looks at basically ALL of the DNA passed down by BOTH of your parents (very UNlike Y-DNA and mt-DNA) Autosomal DNA changes RADICALLY at every generation, BECAUSE it looks at both sides' contributions. For example, your autosomal DNA is only, at MOST, half-the-same as your mother's, and half your father's. FURTHER, DNA undergoes a process called "recombination", AND you get the occasional "mutations", minor (usually) random little changes here and there... In recombination, gene 1 from dad might "meet" gene 2 from mom, then become something else entirely. An analogy would be melting copper and tin together... you don't have copper or tin anymore, you get bronze instead. Another analogy would be like a soup or stew compared to its original ingredients. Some parts are recognizably the same, visually, while others (like the spices) are not. For this reason, autosomal DNA tests can't "take you back in time/generations" as far as either Y-DNA or mt-DNA, in order to help you connect with your cousins to compare lineages/notes and see where you share a common ancestor. Because it IS a test of blended DNA from both sides of your tree, THIS is the kind of test which generally yields the results of A% this, B% that, C% the other (ancestral heritage) and so on. Another advantage of this particular test is that, because it DOES change so much from one generation to the next, the testing agencies have gotten QUITE good at pinpointing how many generations back in time you have to look in order to find the common ancestor.
@rgb Brown "...autosomal DNA tests, which really are the most important ones..." Most important depends entirely on your purpose. One thing that I wanted to do was try to get more on my direct paternal line. For me, autosomal testing is already at its limit... about 5th cousins. I'm looking for older branches to try to tie them together, and perhaps even work back up their line, then down to mine... "doing an end-run" around the "brick wall".
So I have done Y DNA test on FTdna & uploaded on Y-FULL, mine was J-Y254439 (derives from J-M47 from J2). I need to know any culture/race/country that are similar to my haplogroup so I can narrow down where my ancestors come from...

I am still confused about African-American male haplogroups. I am awaiting my Y/111 test results and I suspect that my Y haplogroup is going to be R1b1a2 (R-M269). But my question is if I descend from a European male grandfather, and then there is an African Y-haplogroup in the line subsequently, is the trace inconclusive or what? I am using the test to prove possible paternity of my GGGF by a European father from England. Also, if there was a African haplogroup Y introduced into the lineage after the European grandparent, will I still get European DNA matches from my Y test or only be able to get them from my autosomal test?
Y dna exclusively tests your paternal line. Whatever shows up would be your ancestor whether African or European. If there is a discrpancy between paper trail and DNA you can be sure there was something going on
The gpf indicates that they are from the segment of the haplogroup tree. The y-DNA can vary slighting in offspring and still be direct descendants of the same ancestors. You would have to find each on the FTDNA haplotree and follow them up to the nearest common haplogroup.
This is a really good question. A lot of study on the Y-Chromosome in the Jewish Cohanim can be traced back to a single man. This example has redefined other levels of testing. I am reading through some DNA pairs and seeing how pairs are connected to haplogroups. It is kind of tricky, but it is eye opening because once the method is clearly understood, scientifically we can determine how everyone on the earth is related. Our current progression from Object Oriented Computer Programming to Artificial Intelligence can figure out how everyone on the face of the planet is connected or related, in theory.
I have found your tutorials very helpful. My question is that I see Haplogroups listed in my One to Many DNA comparison on Gedmatch and some of the matches show a Haplogroup (either for Y or Mt.) What is the Haplogroup listed? Is it my Haplogroup or theirs? and what does it mean? For example, kit XYZ123 may list Haplogroup H2a2b2 under Mt. What does that mean for me and for my relation to this individual?
So, I have a Y haplogroup of B-M109 but when I run the raw data. I keep being connected to tribes of people with E1b1a haplogroup. Can you explain how that happens please?
E is a descendant of B. There might be very few B kits, and the E kits are the closest related (still extremely distant, tens of thousands of years to a common ancestor.)
My DNA test says that my paternal haplotype is G-L660 and that my paternal DNA is most commonly found in Sardinia. Will this be my actual paternal lineage?
I can't tell you much more about that Haplogroup. Check out the resources from the website that said that is your haplogroup. Otherwise, do a Google Search to find out more. I focus on generalities on this channel.
Do you know how many markers 23 & Me tests? One of my male cousins tested at FTDNA with the least expensive Y test a couple of years ago just to see how he might fit into the Cline surname project. Hen one of my half-brother’s sons tested at 23 & Me. When I asked the surname project manager about their results said they were related but distantly. They are 3rd cousins 1x removed. I would think their Y DNA would be the same and the difference is due to the 23 & Me testing more markers. Is that a correct conclusion?
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
You need to have one of your parents test also, or to have a known relative (aunt, uncle, 1st cousin, 2nd cousin) test, to know how you are related to a match autosomally, if you find that both you and they match the same person on the same DNA segment.
Sadly, this not my field of expertise. I would refer you to ISOGG, 23andMe, and FamilyTreeDNA reference material. FYI: I'm more focused on building my family tree by figuring out how all my autosomal DNA matches fit into my family tree. Once I do that, then I'll explore Y-DNA more fully.
@@FamilyHistoryFanatics I would love to figure all my matches out too but there are 5000 matches from 23&me and I am going to do an ancestry dna too omg. Quite overwhelming atm! I have no one to fill in a paternal haplo group on my dads side closet we have are male cousins not sure how that works if it even does. 23 says get a brother or dad unfortunately there isn't any of those to do dnas I never had any brothers from my dad he was a causality of Vietnam and his brothers died young too. Grandfather died in 1985 so all we have are my aunts my dads sisters son's my cousins. I am an only child as far as I know. Not sure they give true paternal haplo groups for my paternal side. I suppose my son would carry some of theirs but it be mixed with his dads family haplo groups.
I just found out that my dad’s haplogroup is C-P92 and I’m not sure how and where to research, if I’m looking at the migration map correctly, I’m showing the group migrated from Saudi Arabia? My dad is African American from the state of GA lol. I’m confused. I’m new to Y-dna. Help? lol
Knowing your haplogroup is great, but you're putting the cart before the horse and expecting to get somewhere. You have to start genetic genealogy research with traditional genealogy research. Which means building your family tree. (My wife's beginner video helps there th-cam.com/video/Fx2Tff-R-yI/w-d-xo.html). Then, link that family tree to your DNA results and start identifying all of your autosomal DNA matches in Ancestry, MyHeritage, Family Tree DNA, and on GEDmatch. (You can transfer DNA into the final three in that list for little or not cost th-cam.com/video/g84YAqzR17U/w-d-xo.html). Once you've done that, you have enough to tackle the YDNA question. There isn't any other way to figure it out until you lay the foundation.
@@FamilyHistoryFanaticsi dont hink ur map is correct Basal P* is found at its highest rate among members of the Aeta (or Agta), a people indigenous to Luzon, in The Philippines. Luzon is also the only location where P*, P1* and rare P2 are now found together along with significant levels of K2b1 Even though P1* is now more common among individuals in Eastern Siberia and Central Asia, the above distributions tend to suggest that P* (P295) emerged in South East Asia
So I'm researching my mother's Dietrich family who emigrated east first to Hungary, then the Odessa area on the Black Sea and finally to the Dakota Territory. My first cousin has tested to STR-111 and the big Y on Family Tree DNA. We are haplogroup E-M35. We match with families who emigrated directly to North America in Berks County, PA. So the common ancestor would probably have lived in the early 1700s or even before somewhere in Germany, probably the Rhineland (we don't have documentation or family origins). Recently I have an at-DNA match on Ancestry DNA who is a descendant of one of the Berks County Dietrich families. I have 29 cm over one segment shared DNA with this match. She also shares DNA with 3 of my siblings and with 8 other DNA matches (all have more than 20 cm in common). My question is, could this be a false positive match? Is it possible to have about 30 cm in common from an ancestor from so long ago? Looking that the tree of this match I see no other common surnames or possible more recent relatives. I know of no recent relatives in Pennsylvania and I see no direct connect to Mom's North Dakota family. It would seem if the this is a real match it would have to have come from ancestors before they emigrated out of Germany. What do you think? Thanks for all your work and the great video tutorials!
@@FamilyHistoryFanatics thank you! Very interesting. If it’s apparently a subclade of Germanic origin, perhaps there was a raiding Goth in my family tree somewhere lol. It is not common in Greeks. Thanks again!
@@shaunsteele6926 yeah there were definitely a few "Germanic" invasions. I'm from the island of Crete, so I have a hunch that maybe that Y haplogroup was brought over to us from the Venetians, who themselves saw significantly more "mingling" with up north. That's my hunch at least based on family history. Europe is a beautiful place!

What exactly does this mean? Is there a place I can plug these in and get answers? Also, those with the same haplogroup don't all show the same ancestor, and since some of the trees don't even show that ancestor, I'm not sure where they came from. Help!

@Cory Stophlet If you're having problems knowing WHERE to look for your paternal ancestors, then finding places where people with R-CTS9219 live/lived. Of course, for the most part, we only know where they *currently* live, but you can generally extrapolate that where they are currently clustered is likely also where they *used* to live, at least for a few hundred years. Note, of course, that you can rule out the Americas, due to colonization. From there, then you can try to hunt down documentation. I found THIS page which happens to give a migration pattern for your pattern R-CTS9219... genographic.nationalgeographic.com/results/infographic/100850955fe9658cc65c9263484cb8e1c5894a

I was told I don't have paternal haplogroup group because I am female. My maternal haplogroup is H2a1. My father died a long time ago and all his brothers and sisters are dead. How could I get my father's haplo group? I did not have a brother so can't get Paternal haplogroup info that way. Is there any other way to get my father's haplogroup?
Any direct male descendant from your common paternal ancestor will have the Y haplogroup. So in your case, you may need to go find 2nd cousins or 3rd cousins to discover your Y haplogroup.
Hello, I did both Y and mtda DNA tests through FamilyTreeDNA. My paternal Haplogroup is (R-M269) and the maternal is (L3e2b-T152C!). I would like to know if there's any indication that R-M269 has any possible connection with Jewish ancestry? I ask because another test with MyHeritage gave and estimate 10% plus DNA of Sephardic Jewish from Northern Africa. However, none of these migration maps seem to have passed through that region. Even tough my maternal line seem to be mainly African and my paternal Caucasian. My main ancestries are Portuguese, African and Latin American natives peoples (on both sides) and others. European minorities.
Interesting, me too I am R-M269 and I am Palestinian. and did show some Ashkenazi Jewish in my recent DNA. It was explained to me that it’s possible some of R-M269 may have stayed behind around Turkey and never went to Western Europe and later traveled to Palestine. 🤔
The best way to resolve this is to ignore the haplogroups and focus on building your family tree using DNA matching. Only then will you know the answers you seek.
Your haplogroup only shows your direct paternal line. It is highly likely that it is from the Iberian peninsula including Spain and Portugal just as you said
Hello I know that I'm E-V13, E-L250 according to Ymorley. But i don t know nothing about the subclade. Anyone has information about E-L250? I'm from Spain. New info according to yseq predictor it gives me E-V13+ but not E-L540.
Hi, I have been reading a bit about E Y-DNA (I am also E-V22 also from Spain, Andalucia) and it seems it is originally from Africa but is also highly represented in south Europe. If I remember well, E-V13 has a great representation in the Balkans so probably your subclade came originally from there and spread to other areas of the mediterrean sea.

It is interesting I should come across this channel. Because I took paternal Ydna test long ago and it turned out my haplogroup was the letter I . However, I am of Cuban descent living in the US. According to readings I have done on the subject, most Cuban males who have European male ancestors have Haplogroup R1b. Haplogroup I is more frequently found in males from Northern Europe, specifically Scandinavia and Germany. As far as I know I don't have any ancestors from those areas.
Cuba is a mix of races. It's as easily possible to have a haplogroup from Scandinavia as other locations. Remember, y-DNA groups are from many generations ago.
It's likely not on Amazon. And "True" Chromosomes of your father's lineage are challenging to answer. Actual chromosomes will be found by all the DNA tests because they read the genetic code and convert it into a RAW DNA file. That file is an accurate representation of the chromosomes. HOWEVER, what you can do with that data depends on whether a platform has other DNA matches that share DNA with your father. If they do, you can trace your lineage (to an extent). If not, you will be stuck until others share your lineage test. Finally, based on your question, I'm not sure if your father is alive or deceased. If deceased, the type of testing is very different than if he was alive.
yes and no. They have to use autosomal DNA testing but you're limited to your 5th great-grandparents with this DNA. There are no tests for that line like y-DNA or mt-DNA.

If that isn’t enough my child looks just like his gold death mask, and extremely freaks me out as a parent. Seems plausible to me this ancient person is my direct paternal great grandfather. I get my surname from the descendants of Rollo the Walker, but my Y chromosome comes from the House of Anjou. Paternally I’m 49% Danish Viking and 49% Merovingian noble DNA. I got the full gamut of tests at FTDNA. My Big Y says my Y chromosome originated in the north fertile crescent 25,000 years ago. What gives? My dad and his dad were Mormons and did grand dad’s family tree. The church said we were descendants of Joseph of Arimathea. Can ya help? I think I’m lost in it all.
Well, possibly that one of the women in the family may have, well... "lied" about a kid somewhere on the tree. If you feel what is documented in name and such is different from what the DNA says, could be a case of infidelity in the tree.. That or you really are just part of a wider family that had a lot of branches further back than you though, and some member was a product of some other diverse situation, making it all seem wierd despite being documented as otherwise.
Not really. Y-DNA isn't that valuable of a tool for genetic genealogy unless you have a more specific question such as "Is this man really my grandfather."
2nd Chance Crafting Hi, I’m also Haplogroup N-M231 (which by the way is the defining mutation for Haplogroup N and not your terminal haplogroup, you can do deeper Y-DNA testing to determine your terminal branch of N). What is your ethnic background btw?

My paternal haplogroup is I m253. My father has been tested too and his is the same Obvously ( unless I was a bastard 😂). The strange thing is that my paternal grandfather came to Brazil from Portugal, Galícia . 70% of the men in Portugal are positive for R1b, but there are 5% I1 positive in.... Galícia.

Also, I assume that maternal haplogroup R1b1b is the same population as paternal haplogroup R1b1b? Thanks!
That is not so unusual the more we have learned about history. Haplogroups keep on popping up in places where they were not expected. Ghengis Khan's haplogroup is spread all over Europe, Middle East and Asia. It wouldn't shock me to find some examples of it in Africa.

@@alexanderp4260 You do realize if you don't believe in the out of Africa theory, you also cant believe in the current format on haplogroups and how they mutated in its current state. Y DNA haplogroup A represents the oldest branch of the Y-chromosome phylogeny. Like haplogroup B, it only appears in Africa, with the highest frequency among the hunter-gatherer groups in Ethiopia and Sudan [58,61]. A3b1 is a Khoisan exclusive haplogroup. The oldest extant human maternal lineages include mitochondrial haplogroups L0d and L0k found in the southern African click-speaking forager peoples broadly classified as Khoesan. Profiling these early mitochondrial lineages allows for better understanding of modern human evolution. In this study, we profile 77 new early-diverged complete mitochondrial genomes and sub-classify another 105 L0d/L0k individuals from southern Africa. We use this data to refine basal phylogenetic divergence, coalescence times and Khoesan prehistory. Our results confirm L0d as the earliest diverged lineage (∼172 kya, 95%CI: 149-199 kya), followed by L0k (∼159 kya, 95%CI: 136-183 kya) and a new lineage we name L0g (∼94 kya, 95%CI: 72-116 kya). We identify two new L0d1 subclades we name L0d1d and L0d1c4/L0d1e, and estimate L0d2 and L0d1 divergence at ∼93 kya (95%CI:76-112 kya). We concur the earliest emerging L0d1’2 sublineage L0d1b (∼49 kya, 95%CI:37-58 kya) is widely distributed across southern Africa. Concomitantly, we find the most recent sublineage L0d2a (∼17 kya, 95%CI:10-27 kya) to be equally common So what are you talking about ? People like you are clearly biased.

There are three kinds of test for DNA for the purpose of genealogical research.
Y-DNA, mt-DNA, and autosomal DNA.
I'll post some messages briefly describing each as replies to this post.
Y-DNA:
Y-DNA is only possessed by males. (BUT, Ladies, keep reading!)
It's passed down basically unchanged, except for slight unfrrquent changes which MAY happen.
On the other hand, it may be passed down completely unchanged for multiple generations.
For this reason, Y-DNA testing is able to go WAY back in time/generations to find people who share a common paternal ancestor with you.
LADIES - any male relative descended from your father or his father (or even HIS father!) should still have the same Y-DNA, so as long as there are no "non paternal events", like adoptions or "momma's baby, daddy's MAYbe", then there is no reason you can't get a brother, paternal uncle, or paternal-line cousin, to provide the cheek swab for you to do your test/research.
MT-DNA:
Mitochondrial DNA is passed down ONLY by the mother, unchanged by the father's contributions, and mostly (but not totally) unchanged by time.
It changes, yes, but INCREDIBLY slowly. You should have no trouble (other than the usual troubles of records, etc.) connecting with tenth, fifteenth, even twentieth cousins!
The mother's (and her mother's, and her mother's, and her mother's, and so on!) mt-DNA is passed down to BOTH her sons and daughters, so both males and females are able to take this test using their own cheek swab samples.
Autosomal DNA
Autosomal DNA tests can be taken by anyone, much like mt-DNA tests.
Autosomal DNA looks at basically ALL of the DNA passed down by BOTH of your parents (very UNlike Y-DNA and mt-DNA)
Autosomal DNA changes RADICALLY at every generation, BECAUSE it looks at both sides' contributions.
For example, your autosomal DNA is only, at MOST, half-the-same as your mother's, and half your father's.
FURTHER, DNA undergoes a process called "recombination", AND you get the occasional "mutations", minor (usually) random little changes here and there...
In recombination, gene 1 from dad might "meet" gene 2 from mom, then become something else entirely.
An analogy would be melting copper and tin together... you don't have copper or tin anymore, you get bronze instead.
Another analogy would be like a soup or stew compared to its original ingredients. Some parts are recognizably the same, visually, while others (like the spices) are not.
For this reason, autosomal DNA tests can't "take you back in time/generations" as far as either Y-DNA or mt-DNA, in order to help you connect with your cousins to compare lineages/notes and see where you share a common ancestor.
Because it IS a test of blended DNA from both sides of your tree, THIS is the kind of test which generally yields the results of A% this, B% that, C% the other (ancestral heritage) and so on.
Another advantage of this particular test is that, because it DOES change so much from one generation to the next, the testing agencies have gotten QUITE good at pinpointing how many generations back in time you have to look in order to find the common ancestor.

For me, autosomal testing is already at its limit... about 5th cousins. I'm looking for older branches to try to tie them together, and perhaps even work back up their line, then down to mine... "doing an end-run" around the "brick wall".
So I have done Y DNA test on FTdna & uploaded on Y-FULL, mine was J-Y254439 (derives from J-M47 from J2).
I need to know any culture/race/country that are similar to my haplogroup so I can narrow down where my ancestors come from...
I bought one of the SNPs and I'm in the J2A (M410). Should I buy SNP pack or Y-111 if I want to find surname & which region I'm from??

I am still confused about African-American male haplogroups. I am awaiting my Y/111 test results and I suspect that my Y haplogroup is going to be R1b1a2 (R-M269). But my question is if I descend from a European male grandfather, and then there is an African Y-haplogroup in the line subsequently, is the trace inconclusive or what? I am using the test to prove possible paternity of my GGGF by a European father from England. Also, if there was a African haplogroup Y introduced into the lineage after the European grandparent, will I still get European DNA matches from my Y test or only be able to get them from my autosomal test?
My Boyfriend has two relatives in R-M269 of Y-haplogroup.
Y dna exclusively tests your paternal line. Whatever shows up would be your ancestor whether African or European. If there is a discrpancy between paper trail and DNA you can be sure there was something going on
Would you please post a link to the MIGRATION MAP behind you? Is it interactive?
It's not interactive. It's available using a Google search for paternal haplogroup migration maps.

The gpf indicates that they are from the segment of the haplogroup tree. The y-DNA can vary slighting in offspring and still be direct descendants of the same ancestors.
You would have to find each on the FTDNA haplotree and follow them up to the nearest common haplogroup.
Mine is R-A212. It says I share a common ancestor with Niall of the nine hostages.
This is a really good question. A lot of study on the Y-Chromosome in the Jewish Cohanim can be traced back to a single man. This example has redefined other levels of testing. I am reading through some DNA pairs and seeing how pairs are connected to haplogroups. It is kind of tricky, but it is eye opening because once the method is clearly understood, scientifically we can determine how everyone on the earth is related. Our current progression from Object Oriented Computer Programming to Artificial Intelligence can figure out how everyone on the face of the planet is connected or related, in theory.

I have found your tutorials very helpful. My question is that I see Haplogroups listed in my One to Many DNA comparison on Gedmatch and some of the matches show a Haplogroup (either for Y or Mt.) What is the Haplogroup listed? Is it my Haplogroup or theirs? and what does it mean? For example, kit XYZ123 may list Haplogroup H2a2b2 under Mt. What does that mean for me and for my relation to this individual?
It is their haplogroup that they have manually inputted. It doesn't really matter for what GEDmatch provides.
Sir, what is the journey of haplogroup R2O2 ?
R2A originated in the Caucasus, in countries like Armenia and Georgia. I belong to R2a1a
R2 originated in the Central Asia, south of the Steppe. It clearly shows on the map this guy is using. I’m an R2a myself.
On 23 and Me, my dad's paternal haplogroup is R-Z282, but it does not correspond to FTDNA haplogroups or when I Google it.
So, I have a Y haplogroup of B-M109 but when I run the raw data. I keep being connected to tribes of people with E1b1a haplogroup. Can you explain how that happens please?
E is a descendant of B. There might be very few B kits, and the E kits are the closest related (still extremely distant, tens of thousands of years to a common ancestor.)
@llexbi3 Me too bro what's your email I want to share a few things about Haplogroup B
My DNA test says that my paternal haplotype is G-L660 and that my paternal DNA is most commonly found in Sardinia. Will this be my actual paternal lineage?
My father's haplogroup is RL2, can you explain this? Thank you
I can't tell you much more about that Haplogroup. Check out the resources from the website that said that is your haplogroup. Otherwise, do a Google Search to find out more. I focus on generalities on this channel.
Is that basically all it does? Can you trace something more recent? Like 10-20 generations with a y test?
That is basically all it does. Yes a Y-test (with STR) can trace more recent paternal ancestors, but STR does not equal haplogroup.
Do you know how many markers 23 & Me tests? One of my male cousins tested at FTDNA with the least expensive Y test a couple of years ago just to see how he might fit into the Cline surname project. Hen one of my half-brother’s sons tested at 23 & Me. When I asked the surname project manager about their results said they were related but distantly. They are 3rd cousins 1x removed. I would think their Y DNA would be the same and the difference is due to the 23 & Me testing more markers. Is that a correct conclusion?
The Y test at FTDNA (STR) is not comparable to the test at 23adnMe (SNP). THey are different things.
Can you share wiyh me migration of J1 haplo group? Thanks

Which GedMatch DNA app should I use to find out which side of the family a match is on (mom's or dad's)? Newbie. Great videos BTW.
You need to have one of your parents test also, or to have a known relative (aunt, uncle, 1st cousin, 2nd cousin) test, to know how you are related to a match autosomally, if you find that both you and they match the same person on the same DNA segment.

Knowing your haplogroup is great, but you're putting the cart before the horse and expecting to get somewhere.
You have to start genetic genealogy research with traditional genealogy research. Which means building your family tree. (My wife's beginner video helps there th-cam.com/video/Fx2Tff-R-yI/w-d-xo.html).
Then, link that family tree to your DNA results and start identifying all of your autosomal DNA matches in Ancestry, MyHeritage, Family Tree DNA, and on GEDmatch. (You can transfer DNA into the final three in that list for little or not cost th-cam.com/video/g84YAqzR17U/w-d-xo.html).
Once you've done that, you have enough to tackle the YDNA question. There isn't any other way to figure it out until you lay the foundation.
How do you test for subclades?
Does the family tree DNA y 37 test show haplogroup?
I had a Y-111 test done, to only get a “presumed,” RM269 haplo group, if thats any indication. The Big Y is the definitive it seems.
My Paternal Haplogroup is E-M4451
Thanks for sharing.
@@FamilyHistoryFanatics Your Welcome 😊
Please I would like to know how we can determine the Y-haplogroup from the values of 12 markers?
You can't. Haplogroups are determined by SNPs. The FTDNA test looks at STR markers which are not the same thing as SNPs.
@@FamilyHistoryFanatics
Thanks for replying.
But some internet sites show us our haplogroups by introducing only markers's values.
How it does work??
@@FamilyHistoryFanaticsi dont hink ur map is correct Basal P* is found at its highest rate among members of the Aeta (or Agta), a people indigenous to Luzon, in The Philippines. Luzon is also the only location where P*, P1* and rare P2 are now found together along with significant levels of K2b1 Even though P1* is now more common among individuals in Eastern Siberia and Central Asia, the above distributions tend to suggest that P* (P295) emerged in South East Asia
So I'm researching my mother's Dietrich family who emigrated east first to Hungary, then the Odessa area on the Black Sea and finally to the Dakota Territory. My first cousin has tested to STR-111 and the big Y on Family Tree DNA. We are haplogroup E-M35. We match with families who emigrated directly to North America in Berks County, PA. So the common ancestor would probably have lived in the early 1700s or even before somewhere in Germany, probably the Rhineland (we don't have documentation or family origins). Recently I have an at-DNA match on Ancestry DNA who is a descendant of one of the Berks County Dietrich families. I have 29 cm over one segment shared DNA with this match. She also shares DNA with 3 of my siblings and with 8 other DNA matches (all have more than 20 cm in common). My question is, could this be a false positive match? Is it possible to have about 30 cm in common from an ancestor from so long ago? Looking that the tree of this match I see no other common surnames or possible more recent relatives. I know of no recent relatives in Pennsylvania and I see no direct connect to Mom's North Dakota family. It would seem if the this is a real match it would have to have come from ancestors before they emigrated out of Germany. What do you think? Thanks for all your work and the great video tutorials!
Highly unlikely that it is a false positive, especially with so many other matches sharing.

You can find it on the Haplotree on FTDNA, but for most practical purposes there is not much use for it from an individual sense.
@Cory Stophlet
If you're having problems knowing WHERE to look for your paternal ancestors, then finding places where people with R-CTS9219 live/lived. Of course, for the most part, we only know where they *currently* live, but you can generally extrapolate that where they are currently clustered is likely also where they *used* to live, at least for a few hundred years. Note, of course, that you can rule out the Americas, due to colonization.
From there, then you can try to hunt down documentation.

I ask because another test with MyHeritage gave and estimate 10% plus DNA of Sephardic Jewish from Northern Africa. However, none of these migration maps seem to have passed through that region. Even tough my maternal line seem to be mainly African and my paternal Caucasian. My main ancestries are Portuguese, African and Latin American natives peoples (on both sides) and others. European minorities.

Interesting, me too I am R-M269 and I am Palestinian. and did show some Ashkenazi Jewish in my recent DNA. It was explained to me that it’s possible some of R-M269 may have stayed behind around Turkey and never went to Western Europe and later traveled to Palestine. 🤔
The best way to resolve this is to ignore the haplogroups and focus on building your family tree using DNA matching. Only then will you know the answers you seek.
Your haplogroup only shows your direct paternal line. It is highly likely that it is from the Iberian peninsula including Spain and Portugal just as you said

what kit do i buy that will give me the true chromosomes of my fathers lineage please respond and is it on amazon
It's likely not on Amazon. And "True" Chromosomes of your father's lineage are challenging to answer. Actual chromosomes will be found by all the DNA tests because they read the genetic code and convert it into a RAW DNA file. That file is an accurate representation of the chromosomes.
HOWEVER, what you can do with that data depends on whether a platform has other DNA matches that share DNA with your father. If they do, you can trace your lineage (to an extent). If not, you will be stuck until others share your lineage test.
Finally, based on your question, I'm not sure if your father is alive or deceased. If deceased, the type of testing is very different than if he was alive.
Can a male trace his mother's paternal line? e.g I want to find out about my mothers dad's ancestry

The only explanation for that is the suebic invasion in 409 DC, but that was long time ago. He got 14% german autossomal DNA, unexplained by genealogical research. My mother got 97% european autossomal DNA ( 50% German, 25 % italian, some east europe etc) but her haplogrup is A😮
R1b-L23 Sicily
Cool.
So where is r-df101 from?
Check out this website to learn more haplogroup.org/
Do you interested to find the lost tribes of israel with your DNA knowledge?
I'm not interested in that line of research.
I'll take you up on your offer to ask questions 😁
I have a maternal haplogroup of R1b1b, described by 23&me as ancient Irish, Welsh, Brit.
How long ago did R1b1b first show up, and where?
My paternal haplogroup is R-z92 from NE Poland.
When did haplogroup R-z92 first show up, and where?
I'm not quite sure how to figure that out.
Also, I assume that maternal haplogroup R1b1b is the same population as paternal haplogroup R1b1b?
Thanks!
I would go to Google and look up those specific haplogroups.
@@FamilyHistoryFanatics I have looked but not really sure what to look for.
Thanks for the timely response.
Im R1a1
awesome.

Interestingly my fathers Paternal group is Haplogroup I1 which is Northern Europe
That is not so unusual the more we have learned about history. Haplogroups keep on popping up in places where they were not expected. Ghengis Khan's haplogroup is spread all over Europe, Middle East and Asia. It wouldn't shock me to find some examples of it in Africa.
I1 is the haplogroup associated with Jacob and the lost tribes of Israel.
@@benjamind3448 please provide proof of your statement.my father tested with 23andme AND CRIgenetics and BOTH said his paternal Haplogroup is I1 and that it's representativeof Northern Europe. In addition, he has significant DNA from Northwestern Europe, including Scotland and Ireland. I also found many European Ancestors who we are both related to from my Grandfather side of the family.
It is the haplogroup of the Vikings, who belong to the lost tribes of Israel.
@@benjamind3448 oh I see. Thank you it does say ties to the Vikings
How they did not cross the Mediterranean, but the Indian ocean :-((!
I'm from Ireland. Parents are from Ireland, grandparents are from Ireland, great grandparents are from Ireland.
etc. My autosomal DNA is 92% Irish, 5% Sweden&Denmark, and 3% Scotland. However, my paternal haplogroup is E-M191. How the hell did they happen? 😂
FamilyTreeDNA just gave I-M253. Sadly it doesn’t go further than that.
I thing science made mistake,simply different haplogroups have different ancestors,there were more Adams,not only one
My name is Agamenon Ataide. I am of the Brazil. My DNA Y is L-M20
India?
My Y states 275000 years plus male linage back to Eastern Africa.
haplogroup is R-CTS241
Most British Isles people are R-S660...80 percent!
Mine is E-V13 Albanian, Europe 😀
Is that expected?
Ydna I-L1287 here
cool.
My y-DNA is R
Haplogroup P1 makes european men nervous lol
Why would you say that?
R-S660...L lineage...east Kenya to Yemen and Suadi Arabia.. To Lake B. In Siberia...horseman... Zebra like creatures...
I know my maternal DNA haplogroup.
Awesome

Thanks for commenting.
This all basically assumes archeology still backs up the out of Africa theory
Archeology does back up the out of Africa theory. It was archeology that was the instigator for the out of Africa theory.
@@FamilyHistoryFanatics well initially yes, but not anymore
@@alexanderp4260 You do realize if you don't believe in the out of Africa theory, you also cant believe in the current format on haplogroups and how they mutated in its current state.
Y DNA haplogroup A represents the oldest branch of the Y-chromosome phylogeny. Like haplogroup B, it only appears in Africa, with the highest frequency among the hunter-gatherer groups in Ethiopia and Sudan [58,61]. A3b1 is a Khoisan exclusive haplogroup.
The oldest extant human maternal lineages include mitochondrial haplogroups L0d and L0k found in the southern African click-speaking forager peoples broadly classified as Khoesan. Profiling these early mitochondrial lineages allows for better understanding of modern human evolution. In this study, we profile 77 new early-diverged complete mitochondrial genomes and sub-classify another 105 L0d/L0k individuals from southern Africa. We use this data to refine basal phylogenetic divergence, coalescence times and Khoesan prehistory. Our results confirm L0d as the earliest diverged lineage (∼172 kya, 95%CI: 149-199 kya), followed by L0k (∼159 kya, 95%CI: 136-183 kya) and a new lineage we name L0g (∼94 kya, 95%CI: 72-116 kya). We identify two new L0d1 subclades we name L0d1d and L0d1c4/L0d1e, and estimate L0d2 and L0d1 divergence at ∼93 kya (95%CI:76-112 kya). We concur the earliest emerging L0d1’2 sublineage L0d1b (∼49 kya, 95%CI:37-58 kya) is widely distributed across southern Africa. Concomitantly, we find the most recent sublineage L0d2a (∼17 kya, 95%CI:10-27 kya) to be equally common
So what are you talking about ? People like you are clearly biased.
Migration... Your place of residence now does not tell the full migration story.
I'm brazilian jew. My Y-DNA is R-m173. How many jews we have with my haplogroup? My haplogroup is common in jewish people? Best,
Ur not Jew by ethnic background
But rather ur an aryan
R-M173 mutation is equivalent to R1 haplogroup,the "father" of R1a & R1b,you have to test a more deeper subclade.
@@hannibalbarca4372 yes. I ordered now in Family Tree the Y-DNA 111. So, i will know if my Y-DNA is R1a or R1b, etc...
@@hannibalbarca4372 my maternal full haplogroup is X3a (mostly found in Druze people, South Spain, South Portugal and North Africa). I think its indicates my jewish maternal origins.
Augusto Sorry your ancestors were most likely coverts the real Y Haplogroup for Jews and Israelites is J1 and J2 I have a video on my channel or you can search it up. Y Haplogroup R is European

Awesome.
Um no, the common male ancestor of all humans is believed to have lived some 2-300 kya (not 70 as per @0.50). It would behoove you to publish a correction, as it stands you seem unwilling to include Africans in the family of humans. No doubt a lapse, albeit an embarrassing one.
