Other European Haplogroups. (2020) analysed the DNA of two high-status Egyptian priests from the 12th Dynasty from what is known as the Tomb of Two Brothers, Nakht-Ankh and Khnum-Nakht. They were elevated to the rank of count in 1595, then prince of the Holy Roman Empire in 1647. The Bruces were first Lords of Annandale from 1124 until King Robert the Bruce conferred the title to his nephew, Thomas Randolph. Another branch became the Earls of Loudoun (1633-1786). He is the son of Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands and German diplomat Claus von Amsberg, whose family hails from Mecklenburg. Elvis's paternal grandfather was born out of wedlock and got his mother's surname. All the men tested share the same haplotype that falls into haplogroup R1b-S1200 > S14328 > S1196 > S6868 > FGC23892. Henry is best known for his declaration to the Second Virginia Convention (1775): "Give me liberty, or give me death!" The high incidence of J2a in Italy is owed in great part to the migration of the Etruscans from western Anatolia to central and northern Italy, and to the Greek colonisation of southern Italy. Chromo 2 Y-DNA Y-SNPs covered from the current research tree. The clan owned large tracts of land in Argyll as well as the Inner Hebrides. His seven-year reign as a crime boss ended when he went to prison at the age of 33. A descendant of Thomas Cecil, 1st Earl of Exeter (1542-1623) tested at the Cecil DNA Project and belongs to R1b-U106 > Z381 > L48 > Z9 > Z331 > Z330 > Y6669 > S21728 > FGC18850 > Y21406 Based upon the methodology posted here and using the sample set described here, as of January 2019 it appears that there are six ancestral Y-DNA lines in haplogroup J2 in the Ashkenazi Jewish population: (1) J2-L556; (2) J2-Z30390; (3)- (4) the J2-L254 and J2-FGC30508 subclusters of J2-FGC4992; (5) J2-BY268; and .

Both J2b1 and J2b2-L283 are also found at high frequency in Greece and in regions that used to be part of the ancient Greek world (Ionia, Magna Graecia). Sir Henry Clinton was the British Commander-in-Chief in North America during the American War of Independence. Napoleon I had previously been identified by Lucotte's team as a member of mtDNA haplogroup H. The acclaimed theoretical physicist Albert Einstein is presumed to have belonged to Y-haplogroup E-Z830 based on the results from a patrilineal descendant of Naphtali Hirsch Einstein, Albert Einstein's great-grand-father. John Harvey Kellogg (1852-1943) and his brother Will Keith Kellogg (1860-1951), the inventors of the corn flakes and founders of the Kellog's breakfast cereal brand, belonged to I1-Z58 > Z138 > S2293 > S6277 > Y16450 > A14623 based on relative testing. Commodore Matthew Calbraith Perry (1794-1858), the man who forced Japan to open its ports to Western ships, which eventually caused the downfall of the Tokugawa shogunate and the Meiji restoration, probably belonged to haplogroup R1b-DF27 > Z196 > Z209 > Z295 based on shared genealogy (descendant of Edward Perry 1630-1695 from Devon, England) with members of the Perry Y-DNA Project (Family 11). George W. Randolph (1818-1867) was a Confederate general who served for eight months in 1862 as the Confederate States Secretary of War during the American Civil War. Professor Tomasz Kozowski tested the Y-DNA of Prince Janusz III of Masovia, Duke of Czersk, Warsaw, Liw, Zakroczym and Nur. . The personal genomics company 23andMe tested the Y-chromosomal haplogroup of business magnate and multi-billionaire Warren Buffett and singer/film producer Jimmy Buffett to determine whether they shared a common patrilineal ancestor. Bill Clinton (born 1946), who served as the 42nd President of the United States from 1993 to 2001, most probably belonged to haplogroup I1 based on the results of distant cousins testing available at Ysearch.org. However, the testing of actual relatives, published on the Serbian DNA Project at Poreklo, showed that his Y-DNA line was more probably R1a-M458 (L1029 subclade). The testing of Thomas Jefferson's DNA revealed that the third US president belonged to haplogroup T. Descendants of his father, Colonel Peter Jefferson, tested on the Jefferson DNA Project and belonged to haplogroup T1a1a-L208 > CTS11451 > Y6671. The Hohenzollern originated from Swabia in the 11th century, became Counts of Hohenzollern in 1204, then Margraves of Brandenburg in 1411, Dukes of Prussia from 1525, Kings of Prussia from 1701, and eventually German Emperors from 1871 to 1918 under Wilhelm I and Wilhelm II. of which 57% are J2 and around 20% are J1. This suggests that J2b was not associated with the Neolithic Greeks nor with the Minoan civilisation, but may well have come to Greece with the Mycenaeans, who also appear to have been pushed out of the Steppe by the advance of the Srubna culture. The main branch of Scottish Clan Boyd, whose clan chief has held the title of Lord Boyd (1454) then of Earl of Kilmarnock from 1661 to 1746, belongs to R1b-U106 > Z381 > S1684 > U198 > S15627 > DF89 > FGC12770 > FT69836 > JFS0024 according to the Boyd DNA Project.

The Arab DNA forums and DNA Project admins reported that two test results of members of the Jordanian royal family (private kits) are positive for L859 mutation under haplogroup J1. Birger Magnusson was the ancestor of a line of kings of both Sweden and Norway, starting with his son, Valdemar, King of Sweden. All Jewish Q fall under the Q1b branch. Yo-Yo Ma (b. The team that analysed the Eighteenth Dynasty mummies disputed a claim later made by the personal genomics company iGENEA regarding Tutankhamun's Y-DNA profile. [28], Yuya was Tutankhamun's great grandfather. Z2177, another subclade of Z435, is a bit under 3,000 years old. Kevin Bacon (b. Their son was Alexander Gordon, 1st Earl of Huntly (d. 1470), whose patrilineal line was therefore Seton/Seaton and not the original Gordon lineage, was the progenitor of all the subsequent chiefs of clan. Because mtDNA breaks down more slowly than nuclear DNA, it is often possible to obtain mtDNA results where other testing fails. It survives today in the traditional bullfighting of Andalusia in Spain and Provence in France, two regions with a high percentage of J2 lineages. It is estimated that J2 split first from J* around 37,000 years ago, followed by J1 some 33,000 years ago. Noah was the great-great-great-grand-son of John Webster (1590-1661), 5th Governor of the Connecticut Colony, whose other patrilineal descendants include industrialist Towner K.

The main Scottish branch descends from John Lyon, Lord of Glamis (c.1340-1382), who was Chamberlain of Scotland between 1377 and 1382. According to a study conducted by L.A. Ferydoun Barjesteh van Waalwijk van Doorn and Sahar Khosrovani published in Qajar Studies, Journal of the International Qajar Studies Association, volume VII (2007), Qajar dynasty, the Iranian royal family who ruled over Persia from 1785 to 1925, belonged to haplogroup J1. The Lee family of Virginia and Maryland has been found to belong to haplogroup I1-L22 > P109 > S10891 > Y13930 > Y14227 > Y14225 based on descendant testing. He invented among others the phonograph, the automatic telegraph, the movie camera, the alkaline battery and the long-lasting, practical electric light bulb. Citing Family Tree DNA's own data that shows that more than 9% of the German and Austrian population belong to E-M35, and that about 80% of these are not Jewish, Hammer concluded, "[t]his data clearly shows that just because one person belongs to the branch of the Y-chromosome referred to as haplogroup E1b1b, that does not mean the person is likely to be of Jewish ancestry."[54]. He and the Minamonto (aka Genji) clan presumably belonged to the same haplogroup D-Z1504 as the Imperial family, from whom they descend. It appears. Therefore, not all men who belong to this haplogroup are descendants of Niall. Some contemporary notable figures have made their test results public in the course of news programs or documentaries about this topic; they may be included in this list too. Burt Bacharach (b. I2a2a1 in current ISOGG nomenclature) according to the Luce Surname Project. This confirms that haplogroup J2 was already found around the Caucasus and the southern Caspian region during the Mesolithic period. The Adams Surname Y-DNA Project compared the Y-DNA of 15 families that have an oral history of being related to the US Presidents John Adams (second president of the United States) and his son John Quincy Adams (6th president). A six-time Grammy Award winner and three-time Academy Award winner, he is known for his popular hit songs and compositions from the late 1950s through the 1980s. Zidane was named the best European footballer of the past 50 years in the UEFA Golden Jubilee Poll. Noble burials of Mongols in the Yuan dynasty in Shuzhuanglou Site (northernmost Hebei, China, 700YBP) were excavated. 1938), who descends from the medieval clan chiefs. Finding Your Roots Bernie Sanders Sanders is a US politician and advocate. All three men excavated belong to Y haplogroup Q, with subclade not analysed. The migration map tab shows the path between Mitochondrial Eve who lived in African about 145,000 years ago and your haplogroup today. While J2b* and J2b1 lineages are mostly restricted to the Caucasus, eastern Anatolia and the Balkans, J2b2 is found throughout Europe, in the Pontic-Caspian Steppe, in Central Asia and in South Asia, particularly in India. This branch is found almost exclusively in South Asia today, apart from a few reported samples from the Middle East (Syria, Iraq, Arabian peninsula, Egypt). 902 public Y-DNA members . Yet, at present, J2b has never been found in Neolithic, Chalcolithic, nor even Bronze Age Europe, nor in the Fertile Crescent during the Neolithic or Chalcolithic. Clan Lyon is a Scottish clan of Anglo-Norman origin descended from Ingelram de Lyons, Lord of Lyons, who arrived in England with the Norman Conquest. The project proved conclusively that all Hamilton branches descending from Sir James Hamilton, 5th Laird of Cadzow, progenitor of both aforementioned branches, belong to I1-Z63 > BY151 > FGC81364 > S2078 > S2077 > Y2245 > L1237 > Y6634 > FGC9549 > Y6615, with a most recent common ancestor living about 750 years ago. Clan Cochrane is a Lowlands Scottish clan descending from a Viking who settled in what is now Renfrewshire. The parent clade (FGC52782) has been found in Scandinavia and points to a common ancestor living a bit over 1000 years ago, suggesting that the Seton-Gordon line was of Viking origin. Based on 13 STR markers tested his haplogroup can be assigned as E1b1a. Most branches (Towie, Collairnie, Fife, Kilbirnie, Perceton) were found to belong to haplogroup I2a1a-M26 > L160 > PF4088 > PF4189 > Y84594 > BY68371. Descendant testing from the Rutledge/Routledge DNA Project determined that they belonged to R1b-U106 > S263 > L48 > L47 > L44 > L163 > Y23482 > Y23476 . He is a descendant of Robert Emerson (1561-1620) and George Emerson (1484-c.1570), who are also the ancestors of Thomas Emmerson (1708-1790) in the project. Results from the Clan Cameron DNA Project indicate that the vast majority of participants of Highland Clan Cameron belong to R1b-L21 > DF13 > Y16233 > A2070 > Y16765 > A7298 > A6138.

Distribution of mtDNA haplogroup J in Europe, North Africa and the Middle East fOrigins & History The mutation defining haplogroup J is thought to have taken place some 45,000 years ago, probably in West Asia. J2b is also absent from western and central Anatolia, but is present in eastern Anatolia and western Iran, as well as in the Volga-Ural region, notably among the Mordvins, Chuvashs and Tatars. All kings of France being descended in patrilineal line from Robert the Strong (820-866), unless a non-paternity event happened some time before Louis XIII, it can be assumed that all kings of France belonged to the same R1b-Z381 lineage. Custer was descended from John Stamos (b. I only wrote that Hitler's haplogroup is E1b1b, being more common among Afroasiatic speakers than among overall Germans. Larmuseau et al. He is responsible for the growth of Dubai into a global city, as well as the launch of a number of major enterprises including Emirates Airline, DP World, and the Jumeirah Group. Although this points to a non-paternity at some time in the Plantagenet lineage, it is likely that most if not all Dukes of Beaufort, and possibly most Plantagenets monarchs outside the House of York belonged to R1b-U152. With a 95% probability, the most recent common ancestor of all members of haplogroup J-L70 was born between the years 2499 and 1333 BCE. 3,765 public Y-DNA members . (2013) tested the Y-DNA of three living members of the House of Bourbon, one descending from Louis XIII of France via King Louis Philippe I, and two from Louis XIV via Philip V of Spain. According to the Y-DNA testing of two illegitimate descendants of Prince Albert of Prussia (18091872), Geoffrey Rockel and Franz Rockel, the House of Hohenzollern would belong to haplogroup I2-P78 > Y7219. He is Johnstone Family Professor in the Department of Psychology at Harvard University, and is known for his advocacy of evolutionary psychology and the computational theory of mind. (2014) tested the Y chromosomes of seven modern male individuals who claim belonging to Aisin Gioro family, and they concluded that the haplogroup of the Imperial House of Qing Dynasty was C3b2b1*-M401(xF5483). King has received Bram Stoker Awards, World Fantasy Awards, and British Fantasy Society Awards, among others. Burt Bacharach (b. Hundreds of participants tested at the Hamilton DNA Project, including a close relative of the current Duke of Abercorn. The Guardian named him one of the best actors never to have received an Academy Award nomination. 1957) a former American television news anchor.

J2 could have been the main paternal lineage of the Kura-Araxes culture (Late Copper to Early Bronze Age), which expanded from the southern Caucasus toward northern Mesopotamia and the Levant. List of haplogroups of famous Japanese people "Famous peoples Y DNA and mt DNA haplotypes". Assuming that there hasn't been any non-paternity event on either line, all the He was the progenitors of all the Earls, then Earls and Marquesses of Exeter and the Earls and Marquesses of Salisbury would belong to this haplogroup. According to descendant testing published on Geni.com, the Nevanlinna family of Finland belongs to haplogroup I1. William Welles Hollister, a famous Californian rancher, belonged to Y-DNA haplogroup R1a1. This subclade is the most common Scottish variety of R1a. His descendants later became Marquesses of Huntly (1599-present), as well as Dukes of Gordon from 1684 to 1836. Clan Erskine, a Lowland Scottish clan from Renfrewshire, apparently belongs to R1b-U152 > Z36 > BY1328 > BY2151 > A7992 > A8001 > BY32396 based on at least one descendant from John Erskine, 19th Earl of Mar (15581634) at the Erskine/Askey Surname Project. The same individual is listed in the Normandy Y-DNA Project as a member of R1b-L21 > DF63 > BY592. Haplogroup G, together with J2 clades, has been associated with the spread of agriculture, especially in the European context. The Habsburg originated in the eponymous village in northern Switzerland. Therefore, they indicate the genetic lines of people and the regions they come from that are the oldest we've been able to identify. He has recorded more than 90 albums and has received 18 Grammy Awards. Subclades. J1; J1b; . Geneticist Spencer Wells further clarified that his subclade is I2-M223 CTS616+ at the Genetic Genealogy Ireland 2014 Conference. However the senior Y-DNA line of the Habsburgs ended with Emperor Charles VI (1685-1740), father of Empress Maria Theresa. As of November 2016, he was the 12th richest person in the world. The American actor and producer Nicolas Cage (born 1964),has been found to belong to haplogroup E1b1b-M84. A website published the modal haplotype of Minamoto no Yoritomo (1147-1199), the first shogun of the Kamakura shogunate. offered since late 2013 by BritainsDNA and associated companies ScotlandsDNA, IrelandsDNA and YorkshiresDNA. He is best remembered for being a strong defender of slavery. In 2005, geneticist Bryan Sykes asked for DNA samples from clan chiefs (Lord Godfrey Macdonald, Sir Ian Macdonald of Sleat, Ranald MacDonald of Clan Ranald, William McAlester of Loup and Ranald MacDonnell of Glengary) to complete the project, and all matched the presumed Somerled haplotype. His Y-DNA Haplogroup was I1a. This could either mean that Z435 was one of the founding Italic lineages, or that it was already in Italy and was assimilated by the Italic tribes. Deepak Chopra (b. It is believed that Clan Douglas also descends from Freskin and the biggest cluster in the Douglas DNA Project indeed matches the Sutherland and Murray haplotype. Richard descends from the House of York, while the modern relatives descend from the House of Lancaster via John of Gaunt.

The small hotspot in North West Europe on the left in the J2b2 map seems to be situated around the now French town of Bologne-Sur-Mer, in Roman times known as Gesoriacum, the port Portus Itius was believed to be situated there. In Human Genetics, J2 haplogroup (AKA J-M172) is among the most frequent Y DNA haplogroups in the Middle East and in the Arab World. Both men were found to belong to haplogroup I1, though apparently not to closely related subclades. All of them belong to the typically north-western European R1a-L664 (DYS388=10). The Indo-Aryans pursued their southward expansion, invading northern Pakistan and northwest India from 1800 BCE to 1500 BCE, and eventually bringing about the demise of the Indus Valley Civilisation around 1300 BCE. These 8 haplogroups are the oldest in the world! The Romans probably helped spread haplogroup J2 within their borders, judging from the distribution of J2 within Europe (frequency over 5%), which bears an uncanny resemblance to the borders of the Roman Empire (once concessions are made for the Germanic invasions that appear to have lowered the frequency of J2 between Belgium and Switzerland). A forensic analysis was conducted by McCall et al. He received the Pulitzer Prize for Drama in 1993 for his play Angels in America: A Gay Fantasia on National Themes. Edison was of one of the most prolific inventors in history with 1,093 US patents in his name. Stephen King (b.

Ironically this haplogroup thought to be at the origin of Afro-Asiatic languages, which includes the Semitic languages and peoples that Hitler despised so much. Therefore it cannot be determined at present when the non-paternity event occured in the Plantagenet lineage, and whether most of the Plantagenets monarchs belonged to haplogroup G2 or R1b-U152. 1947) was shown to belong to haplogroup I2-L38 on the PBS TV series Finding Your Roots. Larry Bird is the only person in NBA history to be named Most Valuable Player, Coach of the Year, and Executive of the Year. The Home family descends in the male-line from Cospatric I (died after 1073), the Anglo-Danish Earl of Northumbria.

Richard III, last king of the House of York and last of the House of Plantagenet, was YDNA G-P287, in contrast to the Y haplotypes of the putative modern relatives. This lineage also includes his brother, the producer and director Aaron Norris, and his sons, the actor Mike Norris and the race car driver Eric Norris. Quite a few ancient Mediterranean and Middle Eastern civilisations flourished in territories where J2 lineages were preponderant. GENERAL NOTES: Haplogroup I2 is the most common variant of haplogroup I. Several other descendants of his patrilineal ancetsor Eutaces Gates (1580-1626) from Suffolk, England, also tested positive for that haplogroup in the Gates Surname Project. In 2012, the 10th Duke of Buccleuch showed that he shared the same Y chromosome as a distant Stuart cousin, thus confirming that Charles II was indeed Monmouth's father (see House of Stuart above). The Academy Award nominated American actor and a playwright Woody Harrelson (b. At least three descendants from the Fujiwara clan tested their Y-DNA at Family Tree DNA and all belonged to haplogroup O1b2a1 (formerly known as O2b1a), also known as O-47Z (aka CTS10674 or CTS11986). A third alternative is that L70 originated in Anatolia or Greece and moved to Italy with the migration that gave rise to the Etruscan civilisation. That would explain why it has been so hard to identify R1a or R1b lineages that could be of Illyrian or Mycenaean origin. The 21st president of the United States, Chester A.

J2b1's origins remain unclear, but it probably originated in the South Caucasus and/or Iran and might have spread to the Levant, Cyprus and Greece with the Kura-Araxes culture during the Bronze Age. The high local frequencies observed would rather be the result of founder effects, for instance the proliferation of chieftains and kings's lineages through a long tradition of polygamy, a practice that the Russians have tried to suppress since their conquest of the Caucasus in the 19th century. Genealogies show that Charles II of England had the same matrilineal ancestress as Queen Victoria, namely Anne of Bohemia and Hungary. Immigration from the eastern Mediterranean to Rome during the Roman Empire, then from Anatolia, Thrace and Greece during the Byzantine period (particularly in north-eastern Italy) further increased the incidence of J2 in the peninsula. Rutherford B.
