- a Email us at texasmacleods@gmail.com or post a comment here, Autosomal DNA (atDNA) is recombined randomly between atDNA of both parents. Clan in The study was designed to answer two questions: could individuals with the surname MacLeod be traced to a common ancestor who lived about the time of Leod, and was the tradition of a Viking origin of Clan MacLeod correct. North Uist d.1864 Bras d'Or, Peter MacLeod 1800's Berneray to Framboise, NS, Roderick Ban McLeod (b.1775 Scot. may on The forensic DNA you hear about is also atDNA, but it looks at STRs, so it is totally different. The Yamna culture of 3300-2500 BCE is a possible origin for R1a Proto-Indo-Europeans. At first mtDNA was compared by mutations against the revised Cambridge Reference Sequence (rCRS), which is the Haplogroup H2a2a, but now uses Letter and number Haplogroups just like Y-DNA.

Cousin Additional groups of R1a folks went East into China, where the Tocharian Mummies have tested R1a, and others became Scythians, while still others moved into Eastern Europe and a small minority heading further north into Scandinavia.
Angus mtDNA is non-nuclear DNA, so it is not part of your chromosomes or “genes” and is passed “unchanged” (except for SNP mutations that occur) from mother to all children, but can only be passed on by a mother, so a mtDNA shows the distant female-line descent.
Table For genealogy within the most recent fifteen generations, STR markers help define This heavy sampling of Scots and Irish Y-DNA has made some SNPs start coming closer in time to becoming regionally identifiable, and in some cases Clan and surname associated in confluence with STR comparisons. David Vance of the L21 Project Discussion group on Yahoo has also made this comprehensive chart: Based on the latest discoveries out at the R-L165 DNA project, it looks like we are closer to discovering a marker for direct male-line descent from Leod!

The project was originally sponsored by the Associated Clan MacLeod Societies [ACMS]. Col. Because you have to know the specific location and mutation to test for, you usually need to have done an STR test to find someone within a comparable amount of generations that has already tested SNPs to know where to start from.
