This is an ongoing project seeking to chart out lines of descent that have been DNA tested as shown on the Harris Y-DNA Results Page. Information is based on DNA results, lineage information supplied by kit submitters, Bible records, vital records, legal documents, census records, family histories, internet sources, etc. In some cases the paper trail and/or information found on the web or other sources may be in error. Please view this information as a tool and not as proven fact.
NOTICE: Information presented in these webpages is not to be construed as PROVABLE FACTS. It is up to the user to verify all information that he/she receives. Some information has been provided by kits submitters and their own research. Other information has been added from other sources. Additions and corrections are welcome.
Lineage information in pointed brackets < > lists the Group Number and the DNA Kit Number as found on the Harris Y-DNA Results Page. Additional information will be included as more DNA markers are tested and as more participants match up with this grouping.

Several of the lines in this group seem to trace back to Robert Harris (ca. 1635-1701) of Ware Creek, New Kent Co., Virginia. The one line shown that matches closest to the Modal (perfect match) is the 37-marker test for Henderson Harris (ca. 1820-1867), of Martin Co., Indiana.

This group belongs to the R1b1b2 haplogroup. For information on Genetic Distances in Group 6, view this page: Genetic Distances - Group 6
Here are lineage charts (supported by DNA) that fall into Group 6 of the Harris Y-DNA Results. All spouses are not shown—only the ones that are listed as the parent of the generation that follows. For questionable generations, the names are preceded by an asterisk *. This means the connection between the person with an asterisk and the previous generation are unproven.
The modal listing of Group 6 up to 67 markers is listed on the HARRIS Y-DNA RESULTS Page.

For an exact match to this group, the submitter must be a male with the HARRIS surname, be from the same haplogroup, and the DNA markers from his kit number should match exactly with these results. In most cases there will be at least one variation in DNA marker values. If the two test kits are from close relatives, then the variation is due to normal mutations of DNA. DNA mutations usually occur every 3 or 4 generations. Some specific markers tested are known to mutate faster than others.

To assist in research and discussion, a special e-mail list for members of Group 6 has been established on Yahoo! Groups. The Yahoo! Groups are a combination of mailing lists with other features such as photo and database storage, polling, etc.
