Hello all, I am new to genetics and I have a query. I am English with my paternal ancestry traceable to Yorkshire as far back as the 1700s. My Y-DNA is G2a3b1a, specifically G-Z726; am I right in thinking that this line originated with Franks/Saxons who arrived with the Anglo-Saxon settlement, and later Norman conquest of England? Or did it originate from the Celtic Brigantes who dominated Yorkshire prior to the invasions? I'm not sure if its relevant but I also took an ancestry.com test with the results showing 60% Europe West, 15% Ireland, 13% Great Britain, 5% Scandinavia and 7% Iberia.
Does anyone have more information regarding G-Z726?
