                                                   A Britain-ancestry G2a3b2 grouping


The oldest common male ancestor of the men listed on this page probably lived in the Middle Ages or a
little later.  In contrast, their nearest genetic neighbors share a common ancestor with them probably
several thousand years ago or earlier.  Most of the samples here pertain to men who claim an Irish ancestry.

Because there are as yet no men who share ancestors with the men here until 2000 or so years,
it is difficult to predict how they arrived in the British Isles or in what time period.

The G2a3b2 status means G2a3 men will be positive in special SNP testing for general G (M201)
and G2 (P287) and G2a (P15) and for G2a3 (U8 or S126 or L30) and for L141 (G2a3b).  And
one man here is positive for L177 (G2a3b2).  It is to be determined if all of the Athey family has
this mutation or just one man.

The Whitfield/Whitefield samples which are genetically close to the Atheys are negative for L177.

The diagrams produced by special DNA software by Fluxus -- using 67-marker samples --
aggregates together fairly accurately those belonging to the same subhaplogroup.  On such diagrams,
the men listed below cluster together on a single branch and are quite distant genetically from
other men on the diagram.  In the various versions of the diagram as more samples were added,
the branch on which these men appear has moved about but often appears as an offshoot of the
large DYS388=13 clade.  This is apparently coincidental because the DYS388=13 clade and
genetically adjacent groups are all positive for the P303 SNP -- a situation notsharedbythe<BR>men here.

Below several markers are highlighted with a blue background to show subgroupings
within the overall group.  The change in the DYS19 marker value is more significant, and the
sharing of the new 15 value is not likely to have occurred by coincidence twice in the same group.

Whit Athey, from this group, indicates that the mutation in DYS570 from 17 to 16 occurred in
Robert Athey who was born abt. 1725.  The samples with the new 16 value are highlighted by
a gray background.  It is should also be noted that an uncommon mutation to 15 occurred in
some men for marker DYS19 (also highlighted).  If the info about Robert Athey is correct,
it is quite unexpected that the change to 15 for DYS19 in one man within the Robert Athey group
and one man outside the group.  The DYS19 marker is not a fast-mutating marker.

Haplogroup SNP Testing Codes
             only those tests relevant to this group are listed
X - not tested 
? - unclear what testing was or was not done
GENL - was found positive only for M201, the SNP that characterizes plain G...not tested further
MINI - was found positive for P15 (G2a) but not tested further
PART - was found positive for M201 (G) and P15 (G2a) but not tested further for SNPs in relevant categories
SOME - was found positive for M201 (G) and P15 (G2a) and for U8 or S126 or L30 (G2a3) and not tested further
ALL - was found positive for L177 (G2a3b2) and perhaps for the SNPs with broader coverage
                         above L177 in the G genetic tree
