Just read from another thread that you can get a prediction on your Y-DNA haplogroup from your autosomal results.

How accurate is this in your guys experience?

My prediction according to this site is haplogroup I1

Which could make sense since my paternal line has at minimum 300 years history in Denmark.

It's accurate man, you are I1 for sure. Typical nordic haplogroup.

If your paternal ancestry is from Denmark then your haplogroup is also pretty much "Danish" and "Scandinavian".

It is accurate most of time.

Not accurate, buy YSEQ

It's accurate for your basic Y dna, but not for any deeper clades. So you're almost certainly I1, but I wouldn't assume anymore than that unless you take a Y dna test.

Morley gives me I1 as well, I'm currently waiting on my 23andMe results for an accurate representation.

Pretty sure 23andme doesn't go past basal haplogroup I for people with I1. You'll get I-M253.

23andme dosnt go past basal I1 for most unless you're I1-P109 from what I've seen. It gave me I-M253, plain I1.

If you want to know exact sub-clades, you need to cough up and go for Y-500/700.

Everything else is el-cheapo half-assed half-answers.

If it shows that I'll be happy, I'm also interested in the autosomal results.

Not everyone has the cash to doll out for the Y-500, unless you're willing to buy me one :rolleyes:

Curious to see what you get then. Please reply just to confirm some sort of accuracy from this Morley guy.

Morely gave me I1 and that's what I am.

I'll make a thread about my 23andMe results when I get them in.
