DNA testing
I’ve had the mtDNA, Y-DNA and Deep-Clade tests. I belong to an FTDNA surname project and a Haplogroup/Geographic project which I’m colaborating with. This is more of a “deep-ancestry” or phylogeography project rather than a surname-based genealogical project. Click here

Victor,
What is your haplogroup and mutations (if any) for your mtDNA ? The National Geographic “Genographic Project,” is another project focusing on the dominant trends of migration.

Pat,
E3b* (M35 underived) on the paternal and mtDNA “A” on the maternal line.
You’re right about NG’s Genographic Project which is focusing on ancestral
migrations or in other words, phylogeography, the geographical distribution
of genealogical-genetic lineages.
Studying the Y chromosome and the mitochondrial DNA gives us a very, very
narrow field of vision into our genetic ancestry, that is, we only discover
two direct lineages and practically nothing of the other parallel lineages
that double with every generational step. But since most of our lines
intersect at different points in time in our genealogical past, when I
learn about your direct genetic lineages I might as well be learning about
those unknown ancestors of mine. And when you learn about my direct genetic
lineages you could as well be learning about some of your unknown ancestors
too.
Paraphrasing that old saying: No man or woman is a genetic island.

Victor,
I just purchased a copy of “The Seven Daughters of Eve” by Bryan Sykes… “the science that reveals our genetic ancestry.” It was published in 2001, but with the onset of DNA testing made affordable now, I’m sure it will be back in reprint again. I’m anxious to read what he has to say.
I’m not familiar with the YDNA groupings. I’m hoping that my brother will be tested. That test will supply information for both our paternal and male maternal direct lines, because our paternal grandfather was our maternal grandfather’s uncle. Their fathers were brothers… hence the common male YDNA line would be the same. Now I just need to locate either a male or female offspring of our paternal maternal line. Very interesting subject… Thank you for your input.

Hi Victor,
Glad to see a post from you. . .I missed you and your well thought out
and instructive posts to the group.
As for me I’m a flojo sometimes and tend to put things that I want and
need to do to the bottom of the pile. One of those things is to follow
through on the question I asked the Rootsweb DNA group that you answered
awhile back.
If I wanted to take a Hair that had a really big follicle on the root
how would you go about trying to save it for future geneations if this
is even possible? Can I go to funeral home and get a small jar of
embalming fluid and let the hair and roots sit in the for a few hundred
years? Afterall isn’t Einstein’s brain or parts of it floating around in
various places?
Is there an easy answer to this question? or for me to do this must i
depend on a freezer that keeps the hair at near zero Kelvin?
thanks,
joseph
ps: are there any members of that rootsweb group that you think are
knowledgeable enough for me to interview on DNA for the
http://NuestraFamiliaUnida.com podcast project?

I’m looking for someone of Spanish descent (or someone who lived in
or around Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico) who may have the same results
I have. I have joined the FamilyTreeDNA surname group for Romero,
the J2 group, Mexico DNA, and IberianPenensulaDNA groups. I have not
found any near matches
Paternal Paternal: J2b1 positive for both M102 and M205
Paternal Maternal: Can’t find a family member
Maternal Maternal: U5a1a
Maternal Paternal: waiting for results
I have had a deep SNP test on my J2 and the results can’t be posted
as yet. FamilyTreeDNA has to change their J2 Haplotree to include my
results. My Y-DNA is +102/+205.

Linda, Could you be so kind and let us know what are the various codes, such as J2b1, M102, M205, U5a1a.
Just attempting to get a better understanding of what our DNA will be compared with.
Thank You.~~~
