Welcome!
All workbooks with yDNA base haplotype analysis have been
deleted and moved to the Yahoo Forum - TMRCA Case Studies; see http://tech.dir.groups.yahoo.com/group/R-L21_TMRCA_CaseStudies/
What is our project?
Our study will include surname and modal haplotype research of
those who:
- 1. Are South
Irish modal haplotype and have Eoganacht surnames
2. Are South Irish modal haplotype
and do not have Eoganacht surnames
identify cadet branches and move into group 1
3. Are not-South Irish modal
haplotype and have Eoganacht surnames
identify modal haplotypes - are they indigenous or not
indigenous to Southern Ireland
4. Are not-South Irish modal
haplotype and do not have Eoganacht surnames
identify modal haplotypes - are they indigenous or not
indigenous to Southern Ireland identify cadet branches and move
into group 3
By some the Eoganacht are considered a pseudo family/political
party rather than leaders who passed on their leadership role
to their descendants creating a strong YDNA lineage as did the
Irish I in the North of Ireland. From my research this appears
to fall within the range of my data and mirrors the conclusion
found by the Trinity 2008 Study. However, there is still much
to be learned by studying the descendents of the Eoganacht for
their modal haplotypes, SNPs and family history.
Our goal is to better understand the Eoganachts septs,
500-1000A.D. by researching their descendents.
Groups 1-3 are in the South Irish/Eoganacht septs research
group. Members in group 4 that have Eoganacht cadet branch
names need to be identified and placed in group 3.
I am in the process of collaborating with Dr. Klyosov in
writing a research paper to publish the results of our Case
Studies on the Eoganachts:
My goal is to identify the YDNA of the Eoganachts. The
Eoganacht descendants in my FTDNA projects are approx. 50%
South Irish modal haplotype and the rest being from indigenous
and non-indigenous people. I will build family trees and
branches from clusters using Dr. Anatole Klyosov's mutation
rate calculations. I attach known available family histories
to the YDNA family trees and branches. The result should be
very informative.
