Project Results and Wish List (updated Oct. 30)

Project Results


The results are organized into the following groups:
- E-M2 Ungrouped (1)
- I-M223 Ungrouped (1)
- I-M253 Ungrouped (3)
- R-M269 > P312 > L21 > DF13 > CTS1751 > BY595 (3)
- R-M269 > P312 > L21 > DF13 > DF1 > S6365 > L705 (1)
- R-M269 > P312 > L21 > DF13 > DF21 > Z3000 > BY3171 (1)
- R-M269 > P312 > L21 > DF13 > DF49 > M222 Group 1 (4)
- R-M269 > P312 > L21 > DF13 > DF49 > M222 Group 2a (DF105 > A10526) (6)
- R-M269 > P312 > L21 > DF13 > DF49 > M222 Group 2b (DF105 > A10526) (5)
- R-M269 > P312 > L21 > DF13 > DF49 > M222 Group 3 (4)
- R-M269 > P312 > L21 > DF13 > DF49 > M222 Group 4 (2)
- R-M269 > P312 > L21 > DF13 > DF49 > M222 Patterson (5)
- R-M269 > P312 > L21 > DF13 > DF49 > M222 Ungrouped (3)
- R-M269 > P312 > L21 > DF13 > Z251 (2)
- R-M269 > P312 > L21 > DF13 > Z253 (5)
- R-M269 > U106 (3)
- R-M269 Ungrouped (likely non-M222) (6)
- R-M269 Ungrouped (only tested 12 markers) (6)
- R-M512 Group 1 (3)
- R-M512 Ungrouped (1)

These designations are meant to identify groups of men who appear to share a lineage based on the closeness of their STR results (the strings of numbers you see for each person on the list) and also to separate groups of men who do not. We know, for example, that someone who is R-M269 cannot be of the same lineage as someone who is R-M512. These two haplogroups split off from each other so many thousands of years ago that their DNA signatures are easily distinguished. On the other hand, comparing multiple groups within R-M269 is less certain and may require SNP testing. This is where the Big Y test comes in.

Project Wish List
- (Entire Project) That any kit tested to only 12 markers upgrade to 37 markers
- (All R-M269 groups and individuals) That every member able to do so take the Big Y SNP test
- (Entire Project) That a generous person win the lottery and decide to fund all of this!

See this thread for a brief explanation of why I've recommended the Big Y: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=10

Recommendations should be considered suggestions rather than demands. Please contact me with any questions.

Help what next in order to refine? You have me listed in the (R-M269 Ungrouped) I see a suggestion that I should take SNP pack tests. I am seeing on FTDNA what looks like 30 to 40 different SNP tests for M269 at $38 a pop!!! Am I reading that correct? So could you clarify and expand on that a bit?

Good Morning to all in this Great Project!

This weekend I will be attending my American families 2016 reunion in Michigan. Their paternal Great Grandfather & mine were brothers. It's an amazing thing this genealogy research, I found them by chance/fate on the campus of the University of Notre Dame, they are Alumni. I will be further explaining my research, Y-DNA testing, BigY and The McFadden Project to hopefully get a few of the male lineage to partake.

Slainte!
Sincerely,

Hello people, my name is George McFadden (28 years old born and living in Panama City - Central America)...I would like to know more about my DNA comparisons witj other McFadden's. Do you guys have a specific DNA company or should I just do the test and email to an email address?? Many thanks in regards...

I have a question about Y-DNA testing. If my family linage comes through my grandmother, who was born a Fadden (the Mc was dropped a few generations before), will it even be possible for us to ever have any male grandchildren take a Y-DNA to effectively trace our McFadden DNA, or would the test follow THEIR father’s DNA, if I am understanding this correctly? My grandmother came from a family of all girls, so I would have to track down one of my gr.grandfather’s brother’s male descendency to test...correct? Our McFadden ancestral line, before my grandmother, was directly through the male linage of Andrew McFadden b.1675 in Scotland who came, with his family, to Maine in 1720 via Ireland. Would it be worth my tracking some of my great grandfather’s relatives that I know settled in North Dakota, to find a male descendent? I am in contact with other branches of this line, further back, and may be able to locate a direct male descendent through one of them. Please give me clarification on the Y-DNA criteria and I can get our network of McFadden genealogists looking for the right candidate. We could all chip in on the cost involved. Thanks in advance for your help.
