  • Rabbinical Lineages: yDNA and Haplogroup Identification

    The project's ongoing knowledge base of rabbinical yDNA signatures is available here: (last updated: 11 May 2024; currently 107 lineages indexed; 19 lineages still being sought). The compilation is derived from research work published by others on GENI and elsewhere. Using evidence provided by these researchers, and some additional investigation, the project manager applies a rough Level of Cer...

  • Y-DNA haplogroups

    A Y-DNA haplogroup defines a group of men by the shared features of their Y-chromosome. Members of the same Y-haplogroup have a patrilineal (direct paternal) ancestor in common. Y-DNA haplogroup assignments can help to identify recent and distant genetic ancestry, and provide insight into ancient human societies and their migrations. This project offers a thorough presentation on Y-DNA haplogro...

  • Limits of DNA Testing for Family History

    LIMITS OF DNA TESTING FOR FAMILY HISTORY 1. DNA alone cannot provide the name of an ancestor . 2. Percentage match of DNA alone cannot provide a definitive relationship . 3. Autosomal DNA cannot reliably reach back farther than five or six generations. 4. Y-DNA and mtDNA have strict inheritance patterns that limit their use.

  • R-U106 (Y-DNA)

    Background R1b-U106 is one of the large Western European subclades of haplogroup R along with R1b-P312 (Proto-Celtic) and R1b-S1194 (potentially Nordwestblock / Belgae ). Balkano-Anatolian R1b-Z2103 that earlier split off from R1b-M269 is considered a Proto-Indo-Iranian subclade (Dorians, Hittites, Trojans, Phrygians, and Armenians) like R1a-Z93 (Indo-Aryans, Persians, Medes, Mitanni, and Tatar...

  • DNA Testing: Choosing a test

    Genetic genealogy is a hot topic, but many people are put off by the learning curve. This is a place to get answers to your questions. MH/Geni DNA Tests How do I link Family Tree DNA test results to my profile ? This project is sponsored by Geni's curators to provide help in choosing a DNA test and understanding what questions the different types of tests might answer. Ho...

  • R-FGC30244 (Y-DNA)

    R-FGC30244 R-FGC30244 is a specific Y-DNA branch showing direct paternal ancestry. Y-DNA testing is available at FamilyTreeDNA where DNA is tested for genealogical purposes. This branch was determined with the Y-111 test (111 Y-STRs). Currently there are four testers at FTDNA who have tested positive for R-FGC30244 . They self-report ancestry from Ireland, U.K., Canada, and England. The bran...

  • Clan Henderson Y-DNA Overview

    A Project to link together the projects for different Y-DNA lines being imported by members of the Clan Henderson Society . This project is about a family group that contains people with roots directly to Scotland and some who came to America through Ulster. Most Hendersons belong to either the I or R haplogroups with a few in J, E, and G. The projects below are grouped by haplogroup. The I-...

  • J-P58 (Y-DNA)

    This project is about a Y-haplogroup, which defines a group of men by a shared set of inherited features in the DNA of their Y-chromosome. This implies they have a patrilineal ancestor in common, because only males carry a Y-chromosome, which they inherit from their father. The major Y-haplogroups were formed thousands of years ago, and therefore each group can today include thousands to millio...

  • R-U106 (Y-DNA)

    This project is for people who have tested and been assigned the paternal haplogroup R-U106 (Y-DNA) and also for people who are believed to have been this paternal haplogroup based on tests done on descendants. The current naming convention is to use the terminal SNP, so R1b, U106* Also known as R1b1b2a1a (S21+), previously known as R1b1b2a From The R1b1b2a1 (S21+) is a prominent R1b subclade...

    Project Goals This project is a meeting place for users who share the R-Y93579 Y-DNA haplogroup, which means they are related along their paternal 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.
