Find ancestors from Canada and US and Europe with family surname Carriere. 

More info:    Carriere and Cyr/Sire DNA Research found.

Just thought you folks might wish to know: as at least a few of your folks married Cyrs:

The Sire (the name actually is Sire in France: turned Cyr in Quebec/Acadia)

clan show nearly identical DNA to the Carriere family.

Now I don't know who all is in that data bank: I see that probably your origins are Saintonge.

This is specific to the Pierre Sirre's of Acadia: don't know about the Andre Sire's or Louis Sire's.

Beyond that, our Sire DNA matches back roughly to the year 1400 with a common ancestor of a Sire in Cote D'Azur.......

Looking like both our lineages have deep southern French roots: possibly near Basque.

Started with DF27+ .....That's where we are from this group than to CTS11567+ More info about DF27 http://r1b-df27.com/

CTS11567 (also known as Z2572) is an ancient parallel 'brother' subclade to FGC11380

R1b-P312>DF27>ZZ12>ZZ19>Z34609>Z2571>CTS11567 (also known as Z2572)>BY3865 is our new and latest R-BY3865 now change to R-BY62599

Another point of view in our Group? Of R-CTS11567+  Falls under R1b1a1a2a1a2a7 as Z2572  By Y-DNA Haplogroup R and its Subclades - 2017   https://isogg.org/tree/ISOGG_HapgrpR.html/ISOGG_YDNA_SNP_Index.html 

It has been found that some Z2571>CTS11567 kits are negative for DF84. Therefore DF84 is not equivalent to CTS11567 and is a subclade below, or downstream of, CTS11567

We may have links to: In February 2016 new sample,ERS257013, with ancestry in the south of Sardinia helped form a new branch Z2569, containing the two South American ? below Z2568, under DF84  

It seems to indicate DF84- or DF84+ is a very early SNP with two branches (Z2568* and Z2569) springing from it so far. So that means we may have an ancient DNA SNP In Us 

 CTS11576

Group 2zbcaa. is for CTS11567 (plus equivalent FT4427). It is an ancient parallel 'brother' subclade to FGC11380, below Z2571. With the addition of Big Y-tested kits 370005 and 46496 to the Big Tree in November 2016, a deep and ancient subclade just below CTS11567 and parallel with DF84 formed, named BY3865, group 2fcaab. (hg19 position 14878305 T>C). DF84 kits are now below 2fcaaa. Downstream of BY3865 is BY3873 and these kits are in group 2fcaaba.. A third subclade, Y128171 (hg19 18777343 G>C/hg38 16665463 G>C) aka BY31431, appeared on the Big Tree in December 2017.

So far, BY3865 and Y128171/BY31431 look to have a northern European distribution and DF84 has a southern European distribution. In February 2016, ERS257013, with ancestry in the south of Sardinia, on the Y Full tree formed a new branch (Z2569, containing the two South American 1000 Genomes kits) below Z2568, under DF84. This Sardinian kit comes from the Francalacci et al 2013 study of almost 2000 men with roots in Sardinia, in the Mediterranean. The DF84 kits, parallel with BY3865, below CTS11567, are from the 1000 Genomes project.

An anonymized spreadsheet containing 2000 Chromo2 results was released by Britain's DNA in 2014. I found two kits (1525 and 1903) were CTS11567+ and DF84- but one (1525) was CTS11567+ and S25893+. Therefore, S25893 possibly indicated another subclade below CTS11567/Z2572, parallel with DF84. S25893's hg19 position is 23843638 G>C.

Another good book to read by Martin Carriere    http://www.amazon.com/Martin-Carriere/e/B004IJ61YS A Great point of view from him

https://www.eupedia.com/europe/Haplogroup_U4_mtDNA.shtml Info about U4b1b1--- 

• U4b1b
• U4b1b1: found in Lithuania, Germany, the British Isles and northern Turkey / found in Neolithic Ukraine
• U4b1b1a: found in the British Isles

Note of info: Most Carriere's and Carrier etc are Roman Catholic members, from France and Quebec Canada and USA etc.

Thier are some: French Calvinist Protestants from France, England, Canada, USA, that have Huguenot lineages on Y haplogroups studies too. 

They do have a webpage call: www.Huguenot Diaspora Geographic DNA Project, check it out. Looking for surnames families that link to French Calvinist Protestant that are Protestant believers ways of life.
