ftdna confirmed that r1b1b2 is indeed my haplogroup but I'm interested on the subclade that I might fall into. Does the information I posted help in anyway?
[h=4]R1b1a2 (R-M269)[/h] R1b1a2 (2011 name) is defined by the presence of SNP marker M269. R1b1a2* or M269(xL23) is found at highest frequency in the central
Balkans notably
Kosovo with 7.9%,
Macedonia 5.1% and
Serbia 4.4%.
[7] Kosovo is notable in also having a high percentage of descendant L23* or L23(xM412) at 11.4% unlike most other areas with significant percentages of M269* and L23* except for
Poland with 2.4% and 9.5% and the
Bashkirs of southeast
Bashkortostan with 2.4% and 32.2% respectively.
[7] Notably this Bashkir population also has a high percentage of M269 sister branch M73 at 23.4%.
[7] Five individuals out of 110 tested in the Ararat Valley, Armenia belonged to R1b1a2* and 36 to L23*, with none belonging to subclades of L23.

European R1b is dominated by R-M269. It has been found at generally low frequencies throughout central
Eurasia,
[24] but with relatively high frequency among
Bashkirs of the
Perm Region (84.0%).
[3] This marker is also present in China and India at frequencies of less than one percent. The table below lists in more detail the frequencies of M269 in various regions in Asia, Europe, and Africa.
The frequency is about 71% in
Scotland, 70% in
Spain and 60% in
France. In south-eastern
England the frequency of this clade is about 70%; in parts of the rest of north and western
England,
Spain,
Portugal,
Wales and
Ireland, it is as high as 90%; and in parts of north-western Ireland it reaches 98%. It is also found in
North Africa, where its frequency surpasses 10% in some parts of
Algeria.

From 2003 to 2005 what is now R1b1a2 was designated R1b3. From 2005 to 2008 it was R1b1c. From 2008 to 2011 it was R1b1b2.

You have to pay for a SNP test.
I suggest you join a project team, and they can suggest one for you.
