Well everything indicated Norse, which it is but the only interesting thing is that my R1a is the older branch for Scandinavian. I'm ( suspected by Larry via R1a project ) R1a Z284*
8.E3B. Z287+ CTS8401+ Z281- Clade Z287, subclade CTS8401, cluster E3B
If you ever look at the R1a results map...
As far as YDNA goes, I identify with the Vikings who lives in the West of Norway. As far as automosal goes, I'd still identify with Germanic folk, Celtic folk a little less.
I imagine it varies from individual to individual. I have 0.1% North African in me, would that dismiss me as being European? Yet 90% of my DNA is North European and I've always considered myself English. despite having a Great Grandfather who was Polish, I wouldn't consider myself Polish. Just...
Is DYS394 known as DYS19? If so, it's 15. I only have two matches at 37 markers, one is female who hasn't revealed her location and the other is a male who is from West Norway. I'm at a genetic distance of 4 from both, so likely it is distant than recent. It says His shorthand is - R-SRY10831.2...
I'm not sure really. The bloke who blogs about it, says that the results shouldn't be taken too literally, as although 12% Iberian admixture shows, that doesn't mean to say it's recent. In fact, I'm not sure how far back these tests go in Years.
All I know is that on each test, Eurogenes and...
To be completely honest, the genetic legacy of Normans has me stumped. Whether they were more Flemish, or Celtic, or Germanic or Norse. Much of that DNA was already in Britain so it's not like they had much affect on the gene pool to begin with. The DNA they carried was likely already here. The...
I can only speculate that it'd be either Jutes or probably a Norman of viking descent, many Normans settled here. I am only a 1 hour drive away from Hastings... Can't have taken them long to get here after they destroyed the English Shieldwall.
My Father's line is all Kent as far back as early 1700's, that's as far as i got before spending money on DNA tests rather than on family trees. The issue is, my DYS388 wasn't 10 which is typically R1a L664 ( Germanic?), so I'm expected to see the Scandinavian Subclade Z284, but even then...
When I receive my Y refine for my Y-DNA and shorthand, which I guess may be some time soon, I'll join as many groups as need. It's very interesting indeed. I must be a rare Englishman...
FTDNA just confirmed my W1 to be W1g and I have 0 matches on their database.

I figured it'd be Vikings, perhaps that's the percentage my Y- DNA may come from ( R1a ). We'll see in time.
What would the North-Central Euro point too? I know Central Europe would be Germany, Poland, Czech Republic and Austria and other surrounding nations, but would the north be North...
