Project Goals
The Project will bring together SRY2627+ individuals with the aim of discovering further shared genetic markers and learning more about their haplogroup.
FTDNA customers who satisfy one of the following criteria are invited to join the Project
(a) anyone who has been tested positive for SRY2627 by FTDNA;
(b) anyone who has been tested positive for SRY2627 by another DNA testing company, has purchased the 67 marker test from FTDNA and is willing to order advanced marker tests as recommended by the Project Administrators;
(c) anyone who has genetic and documentary evidence which indicates they share recent paternal ancestry with project members satisfying (a) or (b);
(d) anyone who has DYS490 = 10 and clearly belongs to R1b1b (whether tested or not) - this value occurs particularly strongly within R-SRY2627 and we are interested in understanding its significance.
PLEASE NOTE if you do not meet these criteria you will be placed in the "Unconfirmed" subgroup. Please order the necessary tests or provide evidence of previous testing within one month of joining if you wish to remain in the Project.
