This project is a meeting place for users who share the HV5a Mitochondrial DNA haplogroup, which means they are related along their maternal lines. Users in this group may want to share their family trees with each other to find overlaps and merge duplicate profiles in order to join or expand the World Family Tree and discover new relatives.
Please note that HV5a is an old group, meaning that mutual membership in this group is not a positive indication of a recent genealogical connection. Please use autosomal matching to see if there is a more recent common ancestor.
