Explanation of this group 1  
Please note that all references to the old terminology for this group have been changed here to
say G2a.  Some other locations on the Internet may still use the old term, G2.

The diagram above forms what is referred to as a star cluster.  This indicates that the men are
closely related with links entending in multiple directions rather than along discrete branches alone.  Two subgroups
within this group have their own, separate pages as the men within the subgroups are very closely related. 
With additional samples other such subgroups may emerge.  The boundaries between groups 1 and 2
were arbitrarily drawn based on genetic distance from these two subgroups, but some samples in group 2 are
near the boundary and might more properly belong to group 1.  Segregating the two groups provides some help,
however, in seeing the geographical origins of the most closely related persons.

Group 1 contains virtually all the Swiss and Welsh men within this clade.  This probably has significance.
There probably was not a Welsh emigration to Switzerland, and the reverse is probably true.
This migration occurred in the Middle Ages, and the number of men involved is not trivial.
The migration likely occurred after the Norman invasion of 1066, and Switzerland and adjacent
areas are not normally thought of when one lists the components of the Norman alliance.  One
location worthy of additional study is the Burgundian Kingdom of eastern France in the Middle
Ages.  This kingdom founded several important Swiss cities, extended its rule into today's southern
Germany and also ruled Flanders in the Low Countries.  Flemish merchants emigrated to England
in the Middle Ages to mediate the transfer of wool to the looms in Flanders, and they might be
one source of this entry into the British population.  

The common ancestor of this group also had descendants who went into Italy, Spain, Austria
and Sweden as indicated by the listing of test participants.  Only Group 1 contains persons
from southern Europe based on the longer marker sets available.  Clade # 2 is in a minority in
southern Europe.

This clade and group have values of 13 at the DYS388 marker while almost all the G men not
part of the clade have a value of 12.  There are a few men who belong to this clade who have
values of 12 while possessing all other typical markers characteristic of the clade.

Multiple members of this clade were found by the project by Garvey et al. to be positive for
the new SNP mutation U8, but not for U1, U13 or U16.   It is not clear what category will
be assigned at the completion of the project, but it could be G2a3*.  The tested men in this clade
are known to be G2a but not G2a1 or G2a2.

The characteristics of the two subgroups within Group 1 are explained on their pages.

A large majority of the persons here seem to have an origin in the British Isles.  This could be
explained primarily by the locations of customers of the labs at which the men were tested.  A random
selection would probably show better representation of other geographical areas. 

There are partial samples from Ossetia Russia, Georgia, and Iran that exactly match
the typical values seen in this clade.  The ones in Ossetia and Georgia are a recognizable G
minority.  Time calculations suggest the most recent common ancestor of both the
Georgian/Ossetian group and this DYS388=13 clade lived sometime between 2000 and
3000 yrs ago.  This fact also suggests that the European clade had its origins somewhere in
that region.  The available Georgian/Ossetian sample contains the ancestral DYS388=12. 
If this DYS388=13 clade had its origins among the Sarmatian peoples of the Caucasus
region, they would likely have been a minority within the migrating group because the
DYS388 marker changed from 12 to 13 likely within a 500-year period.  This would make
it difficult for the man who mutated to 13 to produce as descendants the hundreds of thousands
of Sarmatian peoples who entered Europe about 2000 yrs. ago.

who list origins in Poland
 There are three samples in the YHRD database from Poland that exactly match the typical
        marker values of this clade. The limited number of markers, however, makes it only borderline for

 Kung  [adopted surname] X677K in Y-Search.  N42576 in G Project.  Confirmed by the lab as
               G2a but unclear if tested further.
 Mills # 3  P4WST in Y-Search.  Apparently not in G Project.  This surname is normally a Welsh one.
              Unclear if predicted or confirmed as G.  
 Mills # 2  QDPD6 in Y-Search.

               for G2a1 or G2a2.  Shares a common ancestor within 1000 yrs with Kincaid # 2 (Irish).

 Plummer # 1  RCDET in Y-Search.  79380 in G Project.  Only the G Project displays all

 Watson  This is a group of persons in Y-Search who are closely related.  They will not be listed here
               separately, but link here to see the 4 in Y-Search.  The one in G Project is 55420, and
               is only predicted G.  There are G Watsons who are not part of this group.
 Wiley  H7ADS in Y-Search.  54795 in G Project.  Confirmed by lab as G2a but unclear if
               tested further.  His results received too late to include on diagram above.
 Wilson # 2  K68XS in Y-Search.  63174 in G Project. Lab makes no prediction as to G status.
               His 37 markers exactly match Krider (Swiss).  Wilson # 2 not shown on diagram above
               by omission.
 Wood  QXD8X in Y-Search.  8606 in G Project.  Confirmed as G2a by lab but unclear if tested further.
 Wright # 3  HR9Q3 in Y-Search.  15524 in G Project.  Confirmed by the lab as G (M201+)
               but not G1, G2a, G2b.  He shares a common ancester within 1000 yrs with
               Rufener (Swiss).  The lab results here are nonsensical as he is surely G2a.
