Notes to understanding table:

Second column: A name in red here indicates that these men match what has been designated as the "Western Atlantic Modal Haplotype." An explanation of the WAMH can be located here.

Third column contains, in red, the haplotype that has been suggested by the testing company, Family Tree DNA. If the haplogroup appears in green, the participant has ordered and received a SNP test which more definitively defines the haplogroup. This involves an additional expense which I do not recommend unless the suggested haplogroup is something other than R1b.

Row One: Locus - Numbers 1-12 (light green) first panel of markers Row One: Locus - Numbers 13-25 (medium green) second panel of markers Row One: Locus - Numbers 26-37 (darker green) third panel of markers

Panel of markers: Each panel of markers is reported separately. There may be a week between the reports (or more if the first reading is inconclusive. The company will do a retest). Markers 1-12 will place a participant in a Haplotype. The haplotypes which make up a haplogroup are predetermined by the testing companies.

I anticipate that the majority of our participants will fall into haplogroups R1b (the most common found with European ancestors) or I. There is no way two participants who fall into different haplogroups are related.

Conventional wisdom says that DYS numbers will mutate about every 500 years. However, there are certain locations (noted with the pink backgrounds below) which are not quite as stable and which mutate more rapidly. It is these locations where differences may suggest the branching of families. A 37-marker test gives us more of an opportunity to study where this branching occurs and should be borne out by the paper documentation on the family.

NP: Family Tree DNA did not predict a haplogroup for this set of results.

¹Family Tree DNA stated on the personal page that this haplotype appeared to fit in with haplogroup O2. Upon checking the definition of O2 I found that this haplogroup mostly originated in East Asian countries, i.e., China, Japan, or Korea. I felt this was totally incorrect and used a Haplogroup Predictor which has been developed by Whit Athey. Upon entering the numbers there I determined that it was more likely I1c which I felt was more appropriate. I then contacted Family Tree DNA and asked that they look at their prediction again. The response I received from the president of the company, Bennett Greenspan, was that yes, it could belong to the I haplogroup.

²This haplotype is an 11/12 match with kit # 25760. In this case, however, Family Tree DNA, estimated that the haplogroup was I.

³This is another haplotype that apparently gave FTDNA some problems. They were unable to suggest a haplogroup for this participant. Even after plugging the numbers into a Haplogroup Predictor it was not possible to determine a clear-cut haplogroup.

^*These two men share a common ancestor in James Wooford Mullinax, born 1803 in South Carolina. Mullinax was married three times. Each of the men are descended from a different wife. There was no known issue from the third marriage. They are third cousins, once removed (3C1R)
