The red values mutate the most rapidly, the blue most slowly. Members 1 and 3 show only a 5% chance of a common ancestor at 24 generations according to the FTDNA calculation. However, both know their male ancestry back to Shropshire England in the 17th century, and are haplotype Q, which is only 1% of the British population. This is not taken into account by the FTDNA calculation, and greatly increases the odds of a more recent common ancestor. The Q haplotype suggests Viking origin. Members 2 and 6 are very closely related. Haplogroup R1a indicates an origin in eastern Europe. Members 4 and 5 have a 50% chance of a common ancestor at 16 generations. Haplogroup R1b indicates an origin from western Europe - ancient Briton, French or Saxon.
