Am I right in thinking that to fully establish mtDNA haplogroup and subclade, HRV-1, HRV-2 and coding region need to be tested and then there is an additional test for subclade?

Can anyone recommend a good DNA-testing service?

Thanks :thumb001:

I had the basic test with Family Tree DNA. Apparently, you can upgrade to within 3 years without sending in a second sample. I'd better do that soon.

:P

Find which one appeals to you, and make enquiries. Mine was a swab from the inside cheek while others can just spit. When you order the kit, you get specific instructions on how to do it.

My mt-DNA haplogroup is H1.

My mt-DNA is H1a1. I've traced my maternal side to eastern England in the 1600's.

H13a1a1a. :)

What about us with mtDNA N1a...

N1a is a rare haplogroup that currently appears in only 0.2% of European populations

loneliness!

mtdna H but ive only taken the initial test so far.

I am H3, which is the most common variation of H after H1.

Do anyone know approximately when this group arrived in Northern Europe?

I am H1

I've done the FMS/FGS and 23andMe so mine got updated to H3.
