About us
Members who trace their genetic lineage back to the immigrant William Beardsley are expected to belong to haplogroup I1, subclade L1483. This result is confirmed through three Big Y tests and SNP testing of L1483. My results have been analyzed by the YFull team, you can see my report here : https://www.yfull.com/share/yreport/f3a5e28d35a82de1fce2574e75d98c72/
Some members, including admin John Beardsley (me), may have a mutation event in their STR results called a recLOH - "Recombinational Loss of Heterozygosity". According to paper trail genealogy the recLOH occurred in two separate lines of descent from William, one in his son Joseph's descendants and one in his son Samuel's descendants. It is possible (and probably most likely) that there is a mistake in one of the lineages and that the recLOH is actually in just one line of descent from William. As more descendants of William test we may be able to discover more precisely where and when this mutation appeared.
