D4, commonly found in Koreans, Japanese, Okinawans and especially the Mongolic people of Northern China. Also found in Siberia and among the Kazakhs.

I'm J1c3f and I've had the full mitochondrial sequence done at FTDNA. 11 - 25 generations ago I shared an ancestor with someone from Norway and the Russian Federation. I have a genetic distance of 1 with a person in Norway and the Russian Federation that is 1 mutation difference at the full sequence level. I also have a genetic distance of 2 and a genetic distance of 3 with 2 other Norwegians but all these Norwegians have the same surname. It is the feminine form of the name ending in dottar & dattar so 3 different people but the same surname. Because the closest is with Norway and the Russian Federation this looks to me like some sort of Viking movement (albeit a female one). Does anyone know if a distance of 1 is closer than the Viking era?

That's really interesting!I'm currently waiting for my results from a full mitochondrial sequence with FTDNA, so it's good to see the sort of things you find out. I'm hoping to get a more specific haplogroup too. I'm going to have to read up on the genetic distances with mtDNA. I suppose 11 generations could be relatively recent, but I guess it's based on average mutation times so it could be much longer ago (or more recent).

I thought my mtdna haplogroup would have been H,H1,etc. I was surprised when I found out my haplogroup was X2b. X2b is really rare. There aren't a lot of people who can say that X2b is their mtdna haplogroup. At first I thought it came from a Native American ancestor but I was wrong. X2b isn't associated with Native Americans. X2b can be found in Germany and the British Isles. My mom has German and English/Irish ancestry,so I'm guessing it came from one of those regions.

I got my results today, I am H27 (good job James Lick!). It doesn't seem that common, but I do have some exact matches
Exact matches for FMS coding region, HVR1 and HVR2:

Of my exact matches 5 are English, 3 are Irish, and the others just have one match each. Maybe there are other matches who haven't put their country of ancestry. It seems my female line has been kicking around these Isles for a while! I actually had no idea about the ancestry of this line as I can't trace any further than my mum's grandmother- I just know they lived in London. I'm still trying to read up on all the details of mtdna and likely mutation times etc, there's so much I don't know.
