My cousin Gian grandfather is the brother of my grandmother paternal side ................i dont know what cousin that makes....maybe second
He recently had his DNA updated and is now I1-CTS6397
His surname has been in the Venetian lagoon area from 450AD ( according to italian records ) .
he plots
I wonder if it came with the Cenomani tribe into North Italy , settling near modern Verona, Veneto .........................maybe this is where I get my 20 to 30 % of french and or german from in all admixture tests.
The Gauls were divided from the Belgae to the north by the Marne and the Seine, and from the Aquitani to the south by the River Garonne, and they also extended into Switzerland, northern Italy, and along the Danube. By the middle of the first century BC, the Cenomani were a minor tribe that was located in northern Italy, between Verona (which they took from the Euganei) and Cremona. They were neighboured to the north by the tribes of the Raeti, to the east by the Veneti, to the south by the Roman republic, and to the west by the Insubres. The Cenomani name appears to be a Germanic one. It seems to break down into 'cene' plus 'man' with a small Celticisation of the intervening 'o'. In Anglo-Saxon, 'cene' comes from 'céne' [ke:·ne] (adj), meaning something along the lines of keen, fierce, bold, brave, or warlike, in other words, the tribe were 'the keen men'. There is also a slight possibility that they were instead 'the kinsmen', but the proto-Germanic form of this is 'kun-', and its Anglo-Saxon descendant is 'cyn' or 'cun'. So 'keen' seems to be more appropriate, as in fierce or bold. Once again this name, as with several others, seems to present a Celtic tribe that has been taken over by a group of German warriors. Other such tribes include the Aulerci Cenomani in north-western France
or maybe with the Semnones tribe who settled around modern Ravenna, they originate west of modern Paris, france
