Are you happy with your haplogroups?

That's interesting and thank you for clearing that up for me. My X chromosome reads as British and Irish on 23andMe, so I reckon I got that chromosome from old Boyd McDonald, as well. Attachment 61059

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_chromosome Perhaps so. Interesting..

You were implying your mtDNA was from a non direct maternal ancestor, which is impossible.

Quite right. I thought it was so and I was wrong. Thank you for the correction. :yo:

You should check this site if you are interested in your Y-DNA https://www.yseq.net/ It's cheaper than FTDNA Y-Dna tests and i heard that there is less wait time for the the results compared to both 23andme and FTDNA.

Not my same haplogroup, but I know the feelz.

I do not know my haplogroup, so idk

Yes.

I am so happy that I do not have R1a - rethelian haplo!

Its fine; interesting to look into if you want to get a good idea of the prevalence of said haplogroup(s) as with the history behind them which are interesting reads nonetheless.

I'm not ,wish i was I ..
