For anyone interested in the origins of Haplogroup I1 from when it diverged apart from Haplogroup I2 around 27,500 years ago to when the last common patrilineal ancestor for all modern I1 lived around 4,600 years ago I have a video that I created in the link below that analyzes the relevant...

I’m posting this in this general y haplogroup thread instead of the I1 section because I feel that what I’m about to write applies to any subclade branch with many phyloequivalent snps. I feel that the I1/I2 split to I1 time of most recent common ancestor mystery may never be solved because a...

In case anyone is interested I looked at the BAM file for the single I1 sample and it has poor coverage. I looked at over 50 SNPs downstream of the I1 subclade branch including all of the phyloequivalent SNPs for I-DF29 and they all had no reads. I looked at 100 phyloequivalent SNPs at the I1...

Disappointing so see only one I1 sample. I’ve read about widespread trading networks connecting Europe during the Bronze Age. However, there doesn’t appear to be any real gene flow out of Scandinavia into Britain until the Migration Period. Looking forward to the upcoming study on Anglo-Saxons...

When did you get your results? Their website is saying 12-14 weeks these days.

I think I read somewhere that the whole point of that test is to isolate the ANE and that the rest of the admixture should be ignored. Interesting that that my ANE percentage of 13.82% is very close to my Scandinavian 13.8% in a different test on gene plaza. I wonder if the same SNPs were used...

Thanks for the blue/red descriptions. How exactly does purple fit in? Gaul + Frank (4.826) Gaul (7.19) Frank (8.204)

Sweden: 1291/2850=45%, 10m Norway: 579/1537=38%, 5m Denmark: 202/555=36%, 6m Iceland: 42/132=32%, 0.3m Finland: 664/2421=27%, 6m Netherlands: 229/983=23%, 17m England: 2176/10996=20%, 55m UK: 736/4127=18%, 66m Germany: 1278/7326=17%, 83m Scotland: 797/5835=14%, 5m Wales: 126/922=14%, 3m Belgium...

I1 more than likely has a Scandinavian origin and most of the early subclades probably do as well. The purpose of this thread is to give your opinion as to when, how, and with which subclade your paternal ancestor left Scandinavia (unless they are still living there). I think that my mutations...

The transition addition worked for my accounts too. I am pleased with the results especially since they added Northwestern to the labeling. Wallonia Belgian Father: E,W, and NW: 59% Germanic: 31% France: 6% Ireland/Scotland: 4% French Canadian Mom: France: 93% E,W, and NW: 7% Me: E,W, and NW...

No official release date has been released and I have not heard of any accounts being updated recently so no one knows when if ever it might be rolled out to all. Even Ancestry customer service reps don’t know and have accounts themselves that are not updated. My friend’s account was updated...

I found this I1 map of the over 7,000 participants in the I1 project at FTDNA to be quite shocking considering my father is I1 and is from Wallonia Belgium and because based on the 140 Wallonia participants from the Benelux Project 10.5% were I1.

Is the Y chromosome pretty much mapped out by current Big Y 500 or FGC Elite 2.1, or could some hypothetical test in the future provide more refined analysis and many more snps? I’m deliberating if I should do deep Y chromosome testing now or later in the future when technology perhaps becomes...

I’m just guessing here but I noticed that these companies sometimes assign backwards migration percentages to populations that share similar genes. So someone from Belgium could receive large percentages of Great Britain because the groups that ended up populating Great Britain came from the...

My French Canadian uncle received 64% Great Britain, 21% Europe South, 10% Iberian Peninsula, and 0% Europe West. Most of his French ancestors from Normandy and Paris got assigned to Great Britain and most of his ancestors from Aunis and Poitiers got assigned to Europe South and the Iberian...

The original update was pretty poor for people with ancestry from France. My French Canadian Mom received <1% Europe West and her highest percentage was 32% Iberian Peninsula. Still waiting for the new update to see how her results might have improved.

2-4 weeks was misinformation. It’s been two months and my kits have still not been updated. They updated a random select few so that they could get some feedback. The update is still in beta and who knows when if ever it will be rolled out to everyone. Based on a few updated results it looks...

That’s one of my major complaints with autosomal dna testing. There is a lot of overlap between regions so percentages can be misleading.

Most Celtic/Germanic or Northwestern genes automatically get assigned to the British Isles even if they are from other areas of Europe. I have zero British ancestry on paper yet I received 63% Great Britain with Living DNA. DNA Land gives me exactly 63% Northwestern Europe as well. On FTDNA I...

I don’t think the Tuscan percentages are representative of a Roman Signature. I’m French Canadian and Wallonia Belgian and both my parents speak French because of the Romans yet I received 0% Tuscan. Roman soldiers and settlers came from all over the empire so I’m not even sure what a Roman...
