Project Background

Approximately 5% of Northern European (Ashkenazi) Jews will find that upon having their Y-DNA tested that they are from Haplogroup Q which originates in Siberia. Those of us with this particular genetic trait appear to be very closely related with a common ancestor within the last 1,000 years.
